The hosts recap Rebelle Rally Day 3, which was suspended mid-morning due to adverse weather and terrain, noting they’ve never seen the entire field pulled for rain before. They explain the decision was about safety and preventing irreparable damage to sensitive ground—especially from heavy vehicles like Bronco Raptors—and how worsening ruts can make the course unfair for teams starting later. Today’s planned 384 km, difficulty-rated 1.5–2/5, was halted after five checkpoints, with only those points counting. Liza and Jenna earned all 45 possible points in the first five checkpoints, landing in a 13-way tie for first on the stage and moving to fourth overall. They discuss the fog, marshy clay “marshmallow” conditions, vehicle durability concerns without full mechanical support, upcoming dunes affected by weather, and where to follow and sponsor the team.00:00 Weather Stops The Stage01:05 Why Mud Destroys Trails02:37 Car Wear And Limited Repairs04:04 Today’s Route And Suspension Call04:46 Roadbook Enduro Concept05:56 Fog Ruts And Teams Stuck07:07 Liza And Jenna’s Big Result08:20 Vehicle Setup And Mud Lessons10:25 Wet Dunes And Weather Outlook12:14 Motivation And Medal Tie Talk14:08 Camp Night And Forecast Ahead14:55 How To Follow And Sponsor15:56 Wrap Up And See You Tomorrow
