Toby Price had an injured ankle and still won. A stick impaled his boot/foot a week before the race. Ivan Long (KTM) came in sixth even after breaking his hand at the 70km mark on day two. http://www.motoonline.com.au/2015/06/09/price-sweeps-to-fourth-finke-desert-race-win/
Yep Ozzie legend for sure! Seriously fast on any bike but too place top three in Dakar first time is frikken unreal! Hope has more luck at the Baja. Finke is on the bucket list with my family going to watch and a good mate ridding it with me... 40ks of sandy whoops. Benny bradham reckons it's like hanging onto a cliff while someone belts ya rapidity in the back with a cricket back!! Fink........ Hell yeah
Good write up here from Colton Udall discussing his Finke experience and comparing to Baja... http://www.redbull.com/au/en/motorsports/stories/1331730434116/baja-vs.-australia’s-finke
