Jan 14th 2010 Dakar Rally Stage 12 Race Info & Discussion

Join in and discuss all the action from Stage 12 of the 2010 Dakar Rally. Raceday chat will also be available throughout the entire 2010 Dakar Rally.

STAGE 12: San Juan > San Rafael

Connection 23 km | Special Stage 476 km | Connection 297 km | Total 796 km

Course Overview

For the longest stage of the rally, the program will be as lively as it will be spectacular. We will leave the area of dinosaurs on tracks cut by rios, surrounded by canyons and "fairy chimneys". After around 200 kilometres of special, the competitors will momentarily use the road in order to avoid a classified and protected natural site. The second part, exclusively sandy will have many jumps. The bikers can expect to have sore arms and the best of them will rarely ride at over 100 km/h. The day will be even more tiring due to the fact that it will end with a long liaison.

I wonder if Robby took the leash off BJ and gave him this stage to see what he can do? Drop to the back, wait a half hour for the dust to clear, take the penalty time (who cares, he's 20 hours down) and "drive it like you stole it!!!

BJ started 48 minutes after Leal, who just came through 45 min down. If BJ is keeping pace with Saintz he should be through soon.
