Volgens Meoni is de navigatie dit jaar niet meer wat het geweest is. Dat speelt misschien ook wel wat in het voordeel van Gella.

"I'm very angry. Now the navigation is not important on the Dakar Rally anymore. With the corridor rule (between GPS points), even the worst navigators are guaranteed to stay on the good track, because if you just leave that little corridor, the system shows you where to go to find it back. Of course, it's not good for me because navigation is my strong point, but it's not good for the show. For me the Dakar spirit is over. Anyway, the stage wasn't so bad for me. I joined the leading group after CP1, just before my trip system broke. I repaired it during the refuelling. Of course I'm glad to take first position of the overall standings, even though I'm frustrated, because the rally is no longer what it was."
