UPDATE! Yahoo Sports Latino, Federico Faturos, Reporting:
 
"Since the Dakar arrived in South America in 2009, Robby Gordon was the show when entertaining the audience with their tricks at the wheel of his race car man.
However, the US was too far this time and showed great imprudence last weekend at the end of the toughest race in the world.
After the race itself ended in Córdoba, the competitors had to go to Rosario link section for the awards ceremony.
On the road connecting the two provinces from Gordon's car began to pass some packets to one of the auto pilot assistance with both moving vehicles.
They repeated the action repeatedly, until it went wrong and cars were hooked, causing an accident that may have resulted from gravity to those involved."

Desde que Robby Gordon saltó por primera vez una rampa del Dakar se convirtió en el showman de la competencia y eso lo sabe muy bien. En la autopista Rosario-Córdoba, un vehículo del equipo de Robby Gordon se despistó y dio varios tumbos. El conductor del vehículo, quien aparentemente se habría quedado dormido, tiene una fractura, pero no reviste gravedad. Debido al accidente de su asistente, Robby Gordon no paso por el podio y figura como abandono.
