STAGE 10 TRACKING


STAGE 10: CORDOBA > LA RIOJA

Connection 279km | Special Stage 353km | Total 632km

 

COURSE OVERVIEW

The masters of the handlebars and the steering wheel will be most at ease when faced with the challenge of the day. Although the cars and trucks will be separated from the motorcycles, their respective programmes will have similar features. Winding tracks will be interspersed with fast ones, as the competitors pass through a succession of landscapes from wooded areas to barren plateaux. The whole setting may remind the most open-minded participants of Ireland in some places!

Looks like Nassir is officially out??

Permalink Reply by Bob on January 15, 2013 at 12:17pm

Apparently he is out because of "a broken water pump"....rather than the tree he clipped, as reported earlier.

There's a mechanical lesson there somewhere, I suspect.

Sad to see him out though : Looks like they assigned him 25th starting position today, but that for whatever reason he's chosen not to start.

Hummmmm.......Reminds me of the time when Porshe DNF'd at LeMans due to "electrical failure." What they didn't say was a connecting rod had exited the block and severed some electrical wires.

Did a tree have anything to do with Nasser's "failed water pump?" Just asking......

Nassir is on the withdrawl list for not showing up to start this morning. Would have have been cool if he was only down 5:50. Could have seen some good battles. Assuming he wouldn't just quit and go home ig he was down that far.
