Bikes leader Brabec set to quit Dakar after broken engine
The 27-year-old Honda rider held an eight-minute lead over Frenchman Adrien Van Beveren heading into the day, but his engine broke just 56 kilometres into the stage from San Juan de Marcona to Pisco.
PARIS - Overall bike category leader Ricky Brabec's Dakar Rally title hopes all but ended on Tuesday as the American's engine broke early on the eighth stage in Peru, according to the race organisers.

He was bidding to become the first American in any category to win the Dakar.
