Officials probe Al-Attiyah win
NASSER Al-Attiyah could see his victory in the sixth stage of the Dakar Rally taken away from him with organisers investigating whether the Qatari driver failed to cross a way point.
Al-Attiyah (BMW) won the stage in 2 hours 7 minutes 26 seconds; 5min 07sec ahead of South Africa's Giniel De Villiers (Volkswagen), who is now second overall.
"His (Al-Attiyah's) first place for today's stage and in the general standings now hangs on the race stewards' decision," reported the rally's website, www.dakar.com
