I first participated in the Dakar Rally 18 years ago. Racing cars was my interest and I was lucky to get a breakthrough. My first race was in 1987 and since then I have taken part every year. It is a very difficult race.

We passed a crossroads with some spectators and then saw a dip ahead; it was far too late to slow down. We rolled and the car went over twice.
