Medellin takes lead in Colombia's COVID-19 fight, economic revival

Medellin, June 9 (EFE).- Medellin took the lead in Colombia’s fight against COVID-19 and now in the economic revival with the reopening of shopping centers, a pilot plan to reopen restaurants and the beginning of a “citizen responsibility phase.”The second-largest city of Colombia on Tuesday set an example in its results to mitigate the spread of the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus with the use of technology, which allowed various sectors to return as quickly as possible to activity paralyzed by the national quarantine that began on Mar. 25."Today Medellin has everything open, except restaurants, hotels and bars. That puts us ahead of the reopening of any other city in Colombia," said the mayor of the city, Daniel Quintero, during the presentation of the "Yo Cuido a Medellin" (I Take Care of Medellin) campaign on Tuesday.

Toyota Gazoo Racing SA's Al Attiyah / Baumel takes the lead in Peru Highlights

The Dakar Rally is known for the twists and turns it dishes up every year, and Stage 3 of the 2019 Event delivered its fair share. On the positive side, Toyota Gazoo Racing SA’s Nasser Al Attiyah and navigator Mathieu Baumel drove a near-perfect stage to post the second-fastest time on the day, and take over the overall lead of the rally.Al Attiyah / Baumel finished the 331 km-long stage just 03:26 behind winners MINI’s Stephane Peterhansel and navigator David Castera, who completed the dune-laden test in 03:54:31. It was a stunning performance by the Qatari master, and clearly showed the power of the Toyota Hilux in the thick Peruvian sand.“The stage today was extremely difficult,” said Al Attiyah after reaching the bivouac in the Peruvian town of Arequipa, some 460 km from the finish of the stage. “We crossed many big dunes, and in my experience, this was one of the toughest stages I’ve seen on the Dakar.”The stage certainly proved to be a tough one for Toyota Gazoo Racing SA’s Giniel de Villiers and navigator Dirk von Zitzewitz. The pair set good times early in the stage, but disaster stuck near the 172 km-mark when they hit a rock (hidden in loose sand). The impact destroyed the sump guard of the Toyota Hilux, and cracked the sump. As a result, they lost all oil pressure, and were forced to stop in order to save the engine.
