Volkswagen looks set to make a clean sweep of the top three positions in the 2010 Dakar, as the �World�s Toughest Race� enters its final stage from San Rafael to Buenos Aires, the finish point. In the overall lead after 13 stages is VW�s former WRC champion Carlos Sainz, but he�s only leading teammate Nasser Al-Attiyah by just two minutes and 48 seconds. American Mark Miller looks to have secured the final podium spot � he is over 31 minutes behind Sainz but almost two hours ahead of Stephane Peterhansel, the highest placed X-Raid BMW driver in fourth.
The penultimate stage was won by nine-time Dakar winner Peterhansel. With that, the Frenchman has won four stages in this year�s race, extending his record of stage victories to 55. The relatively smooth and fast wrap up stage will start today evening in South America.
