Hey @Vanessa8580, 

Just wanted to know why the time is 6am and not 5am? is it a typo or just late start?.

Thanks

Thank you for the great drive this morning @Vanessa8580. Driven a few times around Big Red and this was a totally different route. Really enjoyable and great pace, on the move all the time.

Easy drive for me today following @Davie Chase, thanks for the guidance.

Thanks @Ignacio Quindós for SL and @Looper sweeping.

Great to drive will you all. Look forward to the next one.

@Vanessa8580 thank you for the great drive yesterday really enjoyed it, it had a little of everything at a really great pace, as always in this area was a little bumpy and busy with the dreaded dune buggies and motocross guys that are really difficult to spot. 

We had a great S/L by @Ignacio Quindós who did a fantastic job for his first time in the position and @Looper for keeping us all together at the back with some awesome sweeping. 

@Sunny84, @Jonny90, @takeshi sobue, @Jona you guys drove superbly which made our jobs of supporting the drive so much easier, great to meet you all and hope to see you all again in the sand very soon :):)

[Ignacio Quindós]

We had a beautiful experience last Saturday! It was great to drive behind Vanessa and to learn straight from the leader. First time for me as SL, interesting position…

Big thanks to @Davie Chase (nice car btw 😜) and @Looperfor your support!

I’ve posted some pictures in the gallery. 

Hope to see you again very soon!
