STAGE 2 TRACKING


STAGE 2: SAN LUIS > SAN RAFAEL

Connection 365km | Special Stage 433km | Total 798km

 

COURSE OVERVIEW

The fastest special stage of the rally, at least for its first part, will also be the one where drivers will have to face the first dunes. And it won’t just be a brief encounter with sand: in the last 100 kilometres, the exploration of the grey dunes of Nihuil will be even more intensive than during previous visits. The sand is more firm there, but the experience will provide a great deal of insight about each of the competitors’ technical skills. In short it will be a veritable test.

 


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

Typo.. :)

Not even BJ has finished yet, or the Hammers team.

The video will be up later this evening.

is this from yesterday ?

Any Video is appreciated. Thanks TOG.

save it and play it every half hour to keep our hopes up reminding us YES it does move

he missed some of the course somewhere, it won't hold up in Dakar court.

5 hrs and I know about as much as I did when I started , no tracking, no chat with our friends, not blaming you TOG , just one of those days

Haval might be dropped? Apparently there is an issue with the mix and match construction of the Haval vehicles and they are seeing if they will be able to continue racing.

If nothing else they should be able to protest like Gordon did last year.

And they just announced that Gordon needs to be towed out.

eurosport just said gordon had to be towed out

Throw a grappling hook on the De Rooys as they cruze by......

We are definitely saving money on the gas with all the towing. Wonder if they take AAA.
