Dakar video: American hopeful Menzies out after crash

American Dakar Rally rookie and Lucas Oil Off Road Racing series driver Bryce Menzies is officially out of the rally after a heavy Stage 2 crash. Menzies was not hurt, but X-raid Team co-driver Peter Mortensen sustained a broken ankle when their Mini hit a bump – which was an expected caution point that still led to several barrel rolls – in the fourth mile of the 166-mile second stage.

"[Pete] called it out as a big caution and I looked at it and just thought it was a little kicker and just hit it way too fast and went end over end," a shocked Menzies told the Dakar Rally video team. "Huge bummer, first Dakar, second day and we're done."
