STAGE 10 TRACKING


STAGE 10: Iquique > Arica

Connection 317km | Special Stage 377km | Total 694km


COURSE OVERVIEW

The drivers will be overcome with even more intense sensations early in the morning. It is precisely at the beginning of the special stage that they will be deeply moved by a spectacular view, combining sand and waves, which continues for several kilometres. The theme will remain constant, since the most experienced experts will be able to surf on the dunes which stretch out for around a hundred kilometres. On the other hand, the difficult fesh-fesh area that will have to be tackled at the end of the special stage will bring everyone back to the tough reality of the long-distance rally.

The funny thing here is, on Monday I got roasted and nearly tossed off the site for poking a little fun at PH.
and for those of you that know the TOOL, know Im here to provide some technical expertise, but mostly a lighthearted view on current affairs in our wonderful life with RG! Now a couple days later this site is banning nearly everything French and PH is the main target. Oh the humanity! Where is the justice!

Looks like I picked the wrong day to quit popping pills!

FREEDOM FRIES for All!!! I guess we were a bit too enthusiastic yesterday... All the schoolmarms got their bundies in a punch. Beavergretel is not the best dog in this fight.

What a total shame for Robby that they are playing these games with him at this point in the rally. All that hard work to get to where he is. Just a complete shame and Nasser not staying around to be a team mate after Robby supported him at the start of the rally like he did. Add Nasser to the POS list!

It's saddening to see RG fall victim to corruption once again.

i still waiting to see peterhanshole penalized for allegedly hitting that biker in stage 9

Allegedly??? Check out the video....what Mr. Peter did was pretty dangerous/risky in my opinion - had he stopped the biker could have used the side of the mini to brace himself from going downstream with the bike - but a race is a race

If he did get a DQ, i wonder how the South American race fans will react, they obviously thinl Robby is god... Could be a huge black eye for the rally

i think they are not going to penalize peterhandshole after knocking over that biker in stage 9 because he's FRENCH, im wondering what would happen if robby was the one who knocked over the biker
