January 03, 2010

A Dakar Rally fan was in a critical condition after a vehicle taking part in the gruelling event careered off course and into a group of spectators.

The accident happened during the opening stage of the 2010 event across Argentina and Chile.

A number of other fans were also hurt in the incident which involved the German-Swiss duo of Mirco Schultis and Ulrich Leardi, who were driving a Desert Warrior car.

"Competitor No.418 (Schultis-Leardi) collided with a group of spectators at the 75km mark of the special stage outside the 'public zone','' organisers said a statement.

"Several people have been injured, one of whom is in a critical condition. Local medical services as well as helicopters have evacuated the injured.''
