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.

Been there, done that,. PS3,. lol.

Ive brought some pretty beat up Dirt2 Hummers to the finish line too LOL!

Speaking of the Hummer #326 seems to be putting a decent run. CZE?POL dudes.

the re-bodied Toyota v-6's with no mufflers?

Which is hard to fathom, why put a Hummer body on a Toyota?

@Robert, I thought it was stupid myself, but since you didn't investigate,here you go.

Looks like yet another 20 minute problem for the boys between WP12 and WP13. Both lost the same amount of time, so one or the other had to stop and help the other ? Yazeed in 3rd today, so at least someone broke up the Pugs at the top of the board.

Yes Bob, Sheldon stop'd to help Robby.10-4, got it

I though you were joking TOG. But they did catch Chapo Guzman.

wasn't that a month ago?

Your thinking of Chapo's Gasman. Guzman was caught today.
