STAGE 7 TRACKING
STAGE 7: UYUNI > SALTA
Connection 440km | Special Stage 353km | Total 793km
COURSE OVERVIEW
The end of the first week of racing is always a decisive intermediate objective. This year, anyone who has put in the ground work during their preparation and who has respected the major recommendations of the discipline will be able to reach it. However, they still need to get to the end of this exhausting day, which will involve getting their feet wet crossing rivers. It is likely that half of the vehicles will arrive in Salta after nightfall… but perhaps before their assistance teams, who also have a long road ahead of them.
The GREEN section of the route is the connection , the RED is the Special Section of the stage.
