Results from stage four of the 2025 Rallye Du Maroc, World Rally-Raid Championship finale Monster Energy Honda Rally Team’s Tosha Schareina stole a win from Hero MotoSports’ Nacho Cornejo and Red Bull KTM’s Daniel Sanders hands over the lead.

Stage four of five at the 2025 Rallye du Maroc proved a decisive one as it looped again around the Erfoud bivouac, covering 378 km, including 283 km of timed special.

Decisive because until now it has been close for the win between Tosha Schareina (Monster Energy Honda HRC) and Daniel Sanders (Red Bull KTM Factory Racing). But the Spaniard won his third consecutive stage today and increased his overall lead to Sanders by a 3'33" on the eve of the finish.

Ignacio Cornejo (Hero MotoSports) entered the chat. In second place, the Chilean is the only rider, along with his teammate Ross Branch, to have challenged the dominance of Sanders, Schareina and Ricky Brabec (Monster Energy Honda HRC) this week.

The day belonged to Schareina though in the end clocking in ahead of “Nacho”  by +24" and American Brabec in third place today (+2'02'').

Tosha Schareina (Monster Energy Honda HRC): “I'm happy to win and move up in the overall standings. I feel sorry for Nacho. He was really the man of the stage and did a great job. Congratulations to him. Tomorrow, I'll have to open the stage again over 216 kilometres, so I'll be focused on that.”

 Sanders is not in the top three for the first time this week and is disappointed, aware that he made the wrong decision by not staying alongside his rival. Daniel Sanders (Red Bull KTM Factory Racing): “I caught up with Tosha at kilometre 35/40 and I just had to manage. But I went ahead and took the wrong direction, while Tosha took the right one, and it was difficult to make up for lost time. At the refuelling stop, I was about a minute behind. It wasn't a good day, I made some stupid mistakes. I lost my lead in the overall standings and let the team and myself down.”

Fourth place at the start of tomorrow's final special stage is the consolation prize for Sanders, who could take advantage of it to close in on his rival and win at the wire.

Rally2

Michael Docherty (BAS World KTM), who yesterday closed the gap to 40 seconds behind overall leader Edgar Canet, lost his way today. The South African ceded his 2nd place to Konrad Dabrowski, the day's winner. The Pole won with a 3'36“ lead over the factory KTM rider Canet with Chilean Rui Barbosa (HT Rally Raid, +7'04”) taking his first podium finish of the week. In the overall standings, Canet leads Dabrowski (+16'06“) and Docherty (+23'14”).

In Rally3, Noa Sainct wins the third stage ahead of Carlo Cabini (RS Moto, +46'37“) and Thomas Zoldos (Aub'Moto, +49'57”). Carrying a foot injury since the day before yesterday, Zoldos gritted his teeth but lost the lead in the category to Sainct, who is now 10'25'' ahead of his compatriot.

The final stage will take place tomorrow over 310 km, including 216 km of special stage. The FIA will then compete in their 31 km Power Selective Section after a 6 km liaison
