"Dakar Rally: Sam Sunderland wins stage after helping hurt rival Paulo Goncalves.

British motorcyclist Sam Sunderland was promoted to stage five winner on the Dakar Rally after stopping to help a fallen rider.

The 29-year-old lost more than 10 minutes while he tended to Portugal's Honda rider Paulo Goncalves.

Sunderland finished in 14th, more than seven minutes behind Frenchman Xavier de Soultrait.

But stewards gave him back the time he spent with Goncalves, meaning he became stage winner and lies second overall."
