Though short, the prologue caused a lot of trouble to all contestants, who got lost in the labyrinth of mountainous paths. The organizers decided to disregard the results in all categories.<\/p>\n<p>Rafa\u0142 Sonik is the only Polish rider to appear at the start line of the Chilean round of the FIM World Cup series. \u2018This is quite a burden, because while I do know this desert quite well and I raced in almost all its corners, the feeling of being alone at the endless Atacama desert is not really inspiring. I\u2019m here to fight for the podium of the World Cup \u2013 the highest place is preferable \u2013 so I certainly won&#8217;t lack motivation,\u2019 commented Sonik before the start of the race.<\/p>\n<p>The prologue turned out to be a lottery. Due to imprecise rules and mistakes in the roadbook many riders got lost at the 15-kilometre section, losing valuable minutes. \u2018As we entered the mountains, we faced a true cobweb of paths that were not marked. It was a great challenge to find the way in this labyrinth, and some contestants missed waypoints for this reason. We certainly didn\u2019t lack emotions at the beginning of this race,\u2019 commented Sonik with a smile.<\/p>\n<p>The Leader of the World Cup is too experienced not to know that the organizer is usually forced to react in similar situations. And this is exactly what happened. \u2018The results were cancelled. The riders who had the best results didn&#8217;t really want to go for it, so the judges came up with a compromise. They kept the order to determine the starting order for the first stage, but they deleted the times,\u2019 explained the World Cup leader, who will begin the first stage as the fourth quad in the line-up.<\/p>\n<p>On Monday, the contestants will face a loop around the Copiapo city. They have over 270 km to cover along huge dunes, which will be a test of their skills and their current form.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Atacama Rally in Chile began with a false start.
