Sainz Strikes as Quintero Extends His Lead to 7 Seconds! | Stage 4 Highlights – Desafío Ruta 40

Stage 4 of the Desafío Ruta 40 delivered pure rally-raid drama — big attacks, costly punctures, changing fortunes, and a title fight hanging by just 7 seconds.

Carlos Sainz took a superb stage win ahead of Eryk Goczal Jr, while Nasser Al-Attiyah, Seb, and Seth Quintero stayed right in the heart of the battle. Quintero survived two slow punctures and still grabbed the overall lead, while Henk Lategan’s day unraveled with power steering issues and multiple flats. From flat-out speed to painful mistakes, this stage had everything: victories, setbacks, dust, pressure, and one massive showdown set up for the final day.
