COURSE OVERVIEW
Today the competitors will cross the Andes Cordillera, to begin the Chilean part of the rally. A special transition stage has been marked out there for the last day that cars will progress without overtaking motorcycles and quad bikes. The timed section of the day will be accessible to skilled drivers who are at ease on fast tracks in a closed environment. Drivers are advised to pay attention to their position from the outset to limit the number of overtaking manoeuvres, even though the strict standards regarding the use of the Sentinel system will be carefully monitored at the end of the day.
The GREEN section of the route is the connection , the RED is the Special Section of the stage.

Not sure if there is a problem or if it is the tracker---65 cars gone but no RG
67 off and NO RG---please tell me it is a tracker problem. At this point I am pulling for RG to complete the Dakar and learn as much as possible for next year
morning ppl, whats going on today? i dont see rg in the tracker =(
That list of starters shows some goofy times around the 57th starter. could be timing issue
Dutch tracker shows him as having started, and there's some goofy splits among the start times around 57th, so this leads me to believe it's just a tracker error.
Can you post the link to the dutch tracker please? thnaks!
