Motorcyclist holds nine-minute lead with just ceremonial ride leftSanders set to become just second Australian to win race

With just one short, sharp stage left after a draining two-week Saudi Arabian slog in the world’s toughest motor race, the Yarra Valley motorcyclist needs just to protect a substantial nine-minute lead over the final 131km loop around Subaytah, including 61km against the clock, to follow his friend Toby Price into the record books.
