Portugal's Helder Rodrigues, on a Honda, won Friday's sixth stage of the Dakar Rally between Antofagasta and Iquique on Chile's Pacific coast while Spain's Joan Barreda stayed in charge of the overall motorcycle standings.
It was Rodrigues's first win on the 2015 race as he finished the 318km timed run in 3 hours 40 min 10 sec.
Australia's Toby Price, on a KTM, was 1 min 10 sec behind while Portugal's Paulo Goncalves, also on a Honda, was 1 min 42 sec off the lead.
Barreda was sixth on the stage on his Honda, more than seven minutes behind Rodrigues, but still extended his overall lead over defending champion Marc Coma to 12 min 27 sec.
Coma, on a KTM, was eighth on Friday.
