STAGE 1 TRACKING


STAGE 1: ROSARIO > SAN LUIS

Connection 629km | Special Stage 180km | Total 809km

 

COURSE OVERVIEW

The competitors will wake up early to set off along the road in the region of Cordoba and start the race on some narrow tracks which will require the utmost vigilance. Each one will still be very fresh allowing them to tackle the stony sections or the blind jumps serenely. The competitors’ driving skills will be rewarded at the finish, where they will have already clocked up 800 kilometres. Although the gaps will not be significant at this stage of the race, it is nevertheless important to maintain their position in the part of the standings that they are aiming for!

 

 The GREEN section of the route is the connection , the RED is the Special Section of the stage.

In about 20 minutes the first bikes should be finishing. With the way the trackers are working, we may only have WP1 and ASS times.
