Peterhansel lost 49 seconds to Al-Attiyah, but remains over 17 minutes clear of the Qatari in the overall standings with two stages to go.
American Ricky Brabec, the defending champion in the bikes category, clinched his third stage win of this year’s race and closed to within 51 seconds of Kevin Benavides’ overall lead.
