The introductory preparation for the famous Dakar is still fabulous for Podmol. The native from Ostrava is obviously getting used to the much heavier machine. The fast sixth stage, in which 210 kilometers were measured, saddled him. “I was doing well, I was in the flow. I enjoyed it, it was perhaps the fastest stage, but it was quite visible and I don’t mind holding the throttle when I see it, “the former freestyle motocross world champion described.” I did a lot of drifts and felt like I was in a computer game. “
He did not go to the start in the optimal mood. In the fifth stage on Thursday, Podmol was in trouble, finishing fourth. “The stage led through grass where no stones could be seen. My teammate Martin Čábela paid for it, who caused a fracture of the first vertebra, a hematoma on his head and ended up in the hospital. In the evening he was still being transported by ambulance. I wasn’t so calm and didn’t have much time to prepare. I didn’t put the roadbook on the motorcycle until the morning and I was looking forward to putting on my helmet and all the trouble would be gone, “he revealed.

The winner of the prestigious X-Games is waiting for the last stage of Saturday. He is currently in third place in the standings, losing less than an hour to the leading Pole Maciek Giemza. “I definitely want to stay on the box. I am glad that I showed the winning stage that one second place was not just a coincidence, “said Podmol.
