STAGE 6 TRACKING
STAGE 6: UYUNI > UYUNI
Connection 181km | Special Stage 542km | Total 723km
COURSE OVERVIEW
The longest special section of the Dakar takes place on the 6th day of consecutive racing. And that is not the only difficulty of this operation, which will take place between 3,500 and 4,200m in altitude. The pace and surfaces change constantly, alternating between sand and rock, which may be disconcerting, especially if it rains. Glimpses of the Salar d’Uyuni are but one of the visual delights on the agenda. Meanwhile, the truck category, which will race separately on this 6th stage, will visit the home town of the President Evo Morales.
The GREEN section of the route is the connection , the RED is the Special Section of the stage.

does RG have any recourse for Terranova ignoring the sentinel yesterday?
Good morning folks, getting early to the office, coffe it's hot and ready, it's pay day and I have to prepare the payroll :/ well I'll pay by the end of the day ;)
French car and team,,, never happen.
rg down 5:03 wp4
WP4-5:10
Loeb lost 1:50 or so from wp4 to wp5
Went from 1st to 3hdMaybe he got word, on the in car radio they are not supposed to have, to slow down so they do not draw too much attention to the power they really have.
When the field loses 3 minutes between CP1 and CP2 to the Pugs, there is a clearly a disparity. Everyone is fighting for 4th on back. Anytime a non-Pug finishes on the podium for a stage, you should call it a victory.
Not to lose everyone but this is like watching a UConn Women's basketball game.
Now that is Funny.
