STAGE 10 TRACKING


STAGE 10: IQUIQUE > ANTOFAGASTA

Connection 58km | Special Stage 631km | Total 689km

 

COURSE OVERVIEW

The special stage, split into two sections with very different features, will begin with the descent towards the shores of the Pacific. The advance gained in the stage the day before may will be increased in the sand during the first two hundred kilometres. Even more skill will be required to tackle the sections of fesh-fesh in the second part of the stage. Once this difficult area is behind the drivers, they will all be delighted to twist and wind along the region’s mine tracks, and in particular to be welcomed by the majestic arch of La Portuda, a stone’s throw from the bivouac in Antofagasta.

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

What a strange day with the other drivers and bikes. Glad to see RG still in it working hard and having fun.

Well anyway you look at it from here on out they have to have a ton of notes to work with for the Gordini.

The next two stages look like they will still have plenty of excitement for racing. Hopefully Robby finishes today with his car working well with some momentum going into tomorrow. Bedtime for me. I wish him luck.

GLuce is there a way to strech out the list on the Dutch tracker to get more than the first 17 and Dutch drivers?

The only way I've been able to do it is by shrinking the font size. Hold down the Ctrl button then press the - to make it smaller. It gets almost too small to read but get a full page.
