    Nani Roma is now officially out due to a head and neck injury. He joins a long list of entrants that have dropped out, the carnage in the sand has been brutal this year.

    Here's the tally of abandons at the halfway point:

    29/139 bikes
    8/49 quads
    31/103 cars & SxS
    14/44 trucks

    That works out to about 25% abandon rate leaving 253/335 (75%) still in the race.

    About the same percentage of FIAT 500s still on the road!

    Loeb is already out and after losing 1h47'56" today Petterhansel is out of contention leaving Sainz as Peugeot's only likely contender for the podium. Fortunately for Peugeot, Sainz is in the lead! Here is everyone within an hour.

    This is the kind of frustrating stuff you don't usually get to see.
