The Gazelles who were lost in the dunes, got out of their car as they saw a light in the distance and decided to walk to it to ask for help, and then lost their car? They stayed in a hotel for the night and went back into the desert in the morning, found their car, and are still in the competition!
It's hard to explain just how much seems to go wrong all the time in the desert (this tale is no one-off) but stories like these keep the spirits high.
NB: Apparently a number of readers have assumed this tale from the desert to be about Team 147. In fact, we shielded the identity of the wayward gazelles out of respect, but to clarify things a bit this was a story about one of our fellow TOTAL teams from Africa...
