Sebastian won the Quest 2009 with the fastest time ever driven after 9 days 23 hours 20 minutes.
Mark finished as a Rookie in an awesome 11th position - he needed 11 days 17 hours 34 minutes.
Sab won the race with just 3 minutes before Hugh Neff !!!
GRATULATIONS !!!
Sab lost another 5 minutes on Hugh Neff on the last 10 miles – another 10 miles to the finish line !
Sab go – Abfaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahrt !!!!!!!!!!!!
Sebastian passed Nordale Bridge in Northpole short after 9:00 AKST (19:00 MEZ) – Hugh Neff halved the distance on him and passed only 15 minutes later.
The expected arrival time is around 11:00 AKST (21:00 MEZ).
“It wasn’t even the wildest dream of my mind (to win the Quest), I have to say,” Schnuelle said in a interview with the newsminer. “You know how I approached this. I said I want to go camping.”

On the Yukon Quest website Sebastian is in second position, but if I interpret everything right he should be in 1st place as Hugh Neff still has to take his 2 hours penaltie in Two Rivers.
So Sab would be 35 minutes in front of Hugh Neff and 57 minutes in front of Jon Little before the last run to the finish line.
Go Sab go !!!
