STAGE 10 TRACKING


STAGE 10: Iquique > Arica

Connection 317km | Special Stage 377km | Total 694km


COURSE OVERVIEW

The drivers will be overcome with even more intense sensations early in the morning. It is precisely at the beginning of the special stage that they will be deeply moved by a spectacular view, combining sand and waves, which continues for several kilometres. The theme will remain constant, since the most experienced experts will be able to surf on the dunes which stretch out for around a hundred kilometres. On the other hand, the difficult fesh-fesh area that will have to be tackled at the end of the special stage will bring everyone back to the tough reality of the long-distance rally.

Nothing controversial. Only that I lost respect for Peter based on yesterday and RG's comments and that one could be forgiven that there is some sort of favouritism being displayed. I was accused of being a conspiracy theorist but only said it was an opinion. Nothing disrespectful.

I didn't notice your post,One of the admins. may have thought the actual content was not appropriate.We try to be fair.

I respect fairness, which is why I write all my posts in a well written fashion which aim to be objective. So I'd be disappointed if this was the case, particularly as several anti-French remarks have remained uninterrupted... Not that I'm judging as to whether this is correct, but I am just saying this in the context of other writings.

Thanks for the feedback however.

Conspiracy theory? "Peter" blatantly hit a biker OFF of his bike...... He had no place to go? How about STOP? Still no penalty....... Only my common sense opinion.

Looking forward to stage 11 now. Gotta cut into that lead.

what do you mean

Why don't you report some facts about what is being rumored all over the world on RG instead of tiptoeing around it and posting encouragement about the next stage?

Whats to report? Robby has appealed & they are getting ready for stage 11. Whatever happens, happens.

Whoa, ease up big fella! TOG was in reality reporting the facts. The facts as we know them right now is that RG is still racing pending the appeal. Therefore unless we hear otherwise it is fact that he is racing stage 11 tomorrow and it is also a fact that if he has any chance to win this thing (DQ/Appeal notwithstanding) he has to finish ahead of PH and the only way to do that is to cut into the lead.
I personally would like to thank TOG for providing this website as an avenue for getting info, be they fact or rumour, rather than berating him for not providing facts where none yet exist.
