Spanish driver Carlos Sainz wins Dakar Rally for fourth time

Veteran Spanish driver Carlos Sainz won the gruelling Dakar Rally for a fourth time on Friday.

The 61-year-old two-time world rally champion had been all but guaranteed success when closest rival Sebastien Loeb was stranded in the desert for over an hour in Thursday’s penultimate stage.
