STAGE 6 TRACKING


STAGE 6: TUCUMAN > SALTA

Connection 270km | Special Stage 424km | Total 694km

 

COURSE OVERVIEW

Once they have left Tucuman, the cars will head north and drive along part of the renowned Ruta 40, and continue on in the heart of one of Argentina’s most beautiful landscapes. The possibilities to widen the gap will be limited but the most skilled drivers may be able to seize the opportunity of adding a stage to their list of wins. A new trip to the mountains will take motorcyclists to the banks of the rivers. They will have to remain vigilant until the very end of the stage as the region is frequented to a great extent by animals of all sizes. Then they will finally be able to rest.

The GREEN section of the route is the connection , the RED is the Special Section of the stage.

Terrible news live from South America, where the biker Eric Palante Liège, who attended his 11th rally "Paris - Dakar", has died.
