Road racer James Hillier has crashed on the Dakar Rally, on which he is competing for the second time.
Fortunately, another rider stopped to help him, and convinced him to not continue when Hillier was quite intent on doing so even with blood streaming from his nose.
2024 Dakar winner Ricky Brabec is currently fifth overall, 15 minutes off the lead, and the third of the factory Honda riders, behind Spain’s Tosha Schareina in fourth.
There are 11 days of the 2025 Dakar remaining, with the 12th and final stage taking place on 17 January.
