Thule Adventure Team winner with 3 seconds in Le Grand Raid - day 4

We managed to win also the fourth stage of Le Grand Raid just before the French team CAP OPALE.
But it was a tough fight until the finish line. We did win with only 3 seconds!

Today’s stage is best described as cold, rainy and hard. Though the team stayed together in a good way and are very pleased with today’s stage victory.

Before the last stage we are in the lead with 2 hours 25 minutes for the runner-up Team Wilsa and 3 hours 10 minutes before the third-place Team Buff Thermo Cool.

The race ends tomorrow in Lille, France.

We will make this a Thule Adventure Team victory!
