STAGE 9 TRACKING
STAGE 9: SAN MIGUEL DE TUCAMAN > CORDOBA
Connection 259km | Special Stage 593km | Total 852km
COURSE OVERVIEW
Trucks will have pride of place when the rally resumes, only competing in one of the two parts of the special stage, but they will have the rare privilege of setting off first. The stage’s profile with quick tracks will be favourable to specialists of torturous routes. In the other categories, as the distance has been doubled it will also allow for an additional, much more technical section, where, in particular, the drivers will negotiate the bends in the forest. They will have to watch out for trees, given that the rapid assistance trucks won’t have access to the route. The competitors will have to be extremely vigilant over the entire distance, which is, for all except for the bikers, the rally’s longest special stage.

Just a heads up, tracking hasn't updated for any cars since the KM425(WP9) update. Bikes tracking had similar issues and didn't update until end of stage.

Tracking is really wonky today. Both Terranova and De Villiers are missing. Also, the Dakar.com Live Feed news thing has pretty much ignored the car race today.

FINALLY, an update...
21:52 Cars: Nani Roma forges ahead after 499 km
The checkpoint confirmed that the feeling Giniel de Villiers was losing time wasn't just an impression. Spain's Nani Roma seized the lead with a nine-second margin over the South African. Stéphane Peterhansel is third at 4'26', Robby Gordon fourth at 8'05', and Carlos Sousa seems poised to take a terrific fifth place at 8'50'. But first he'll have to see off the onslaught of Leonid Novitskiy, who's just 21' off the pace of the Top 5.

21:31 Cars: Giniel de Villiers in trouble?
The South African's pace nosedived a few minutes ago as he was leading the race. His Toyota Hilux has yet to go through km 423, although nineteen other competitors have already done so.
