STAGE 2 TRACKING
STAGE 2: SAN LUIS > SAN RAFAEL
Connection 365km | Special Stage 433km | Total 798km
COURSE OVERVIEW
The fastest special stage of the rally, at least for its first part, will also be the one where drivers will have to face the first dunes. And it won’t just be a brief encounter with sand: in the last 100 kilometres, the exploration of the grey dunes of Nihuil will be even more intensive than during previous visits. The sand is more firm there, but the experience will provide a great deal of insight about each of the competitors’ technical skills. In short it will be a veritable test.
The GREEN section of the route is the connection , the RED is the Special Section of the stage.

I thought the tow truck was a Toyota...
Yep, I think we can all add the #390 team to our hero list. :-)
good plan
Per driver page on the Gordini, Robby thought he'd be driving the 2nd Hummer he sold to the Saudi. When he got hurt in an earlier rally and withdrew from Dakar RG was left on his own. Didn't get the Gordini til Nov. 1500k of shakedown. The Gremlins (or Llahmas) are gonna show up for a while. I'll be pulling for Devill & anybody other than the skirts.
Maybe Speed Energy needs the car (390) to sponsor next year to carry and tow Robby!
if losing an 1:03 is good,than yes.Fuel issues again,per TOYO as reported by Kevin Wilson
