Jan 14th, 2016 Dakar Rally Stage 11 Race Info & Discussion

Join in and discuss all the action from Stage 11 of the 2016 Dakar Rally. Robby Gordon start time: 7:58am/et, Sheldon Creed will not start, due to disqualification in stage 8.


STAGE 11 TRACKING


STAGE 11: LA RIOJA > SAN JUAN

Connection 281km | Special Stage 431km | Total 712km

COURSE OVERVIEW

The level of difficulty remains the same, but variety will favour the most flexible of drivers and teams. Sand in all its forms will feature, particularly fesh-fesh, the most volatile and heavy kind, which demands both dexterity and patience. But speed will also be an advantage in other, straighter sections, featuring gravel and pebbles. Opportunities will be few and far between, but there is still time to shake up the standings, since the terrain will be favourable to creating significant gaps.

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

As long as he was towed by another competitor (he was) it is OK.

Terranova will knock RG down a spot, maybe Spataro too

I was really hoping for a top 10. Was looking good earlier. Will still be top 15 - a good day, and better than yesterday.

Spataro started today before Robby and hasn't finished yet so maybe only Terranova to knock RG down a spot.

Terranova finally in. He lost a bunch of time. Provisionally 14th.

Waiting on Spataro.

Spataro definitely late. 11th for RG, and only 1'11" out of a top 10 for the day.
