Prince Abdulaziz bin Saad bin Abdulaziz Crowns Winners of Nissan Hail International Rally 2020
Published in Saudi Press Agency on 08 - 02 - 2020

Prince Abdulaziz bin Saad bin Abdulaziz, governor of Hail region, crowned today the winners of the Nissan Hail International Rally 2020.
Saudi driver Saleh Alabdelali and Norwegian navigator Ole Floene won the 15th Hail Nissan Rally with the second quickest time on the fourth 181-km selective section of the event through the An Nafud Desert yesterday.
Alabdelali said: "Today's stage was very fast, very rough. Like the previous stages, it needed a lot of navigational skills. After 40 km, I had a puncture and lost a couple of minutes. Then I pushed to regain the minutes that I had lost. I was sure that Zapletal was going to push and try his best to win the stage today. Any small problem would have cost me the rally. In the end, Zapletal was not able to gain any advantage, so I am extremely happy to have won the rally. I am happy for Yazeed Racing."
Al-Mushanna and Mazen Al-Shammeri displaced Mutair and Hani Al-Shammeri in the battle of the Nissans for third place. Saleh Al-Saif and Yasser Al-Shammeri held on to fifth to confirm victory in the T3 category.
Muneef Al-Salmani confirmed sixth overall in his Nissan, Abdullah Al-Shegawi finished in seventh and Sami Al-Shammeri was eighth.
Khaled Al-Hamazani pipped Salman Al-Shammeri to victory in the T2 category for series production cross-country vehicles and Khalil Al-Tuwaijri topped the T4 standings from Fahad Al-Naim.
Ibrahim Al-Muhanna and his faithful crew of Osama Al-Sanad and Raed Abo Theeb were the sole entrants in the T5 truck section in their Mercedes.
Mohammed Al-Balooshi took a 3min 06sec lead over his brother Sultan into the last stage and the Emirati KTM duo held on second a one-two finish for the Al-Balooshi family, Mohammed winning the rally by 6min 05sec. Saudi Arabia's Ahmed Al-Nasser finished a distant third.
Sulfyan Al-Omar began the final stage with a 13-second lead over Riyadh Al-Oraifan in the quad section but Al-Oraifan won the stage to clinch victory by the margin of 6min 47sec. Sultan Al-Masoud, Abdul Aziz Al-Shayban and Ahmed Al-Harbi rounded off the top five.
