STAGE 8 TRACKING
STAGE 8: SALTA > BELEN
Connection 373km | Special Stage 393km | Total 766km
COURSE OVERVIEW
The change of terrain which marks the entry into the second part of the rally should also mark a change in programme for the drivers, who will face the first dune sections of the 2016 edition. Experts in dunes crossing will have an opportunity to demonstrate their skills and even gain an advantage. They will also notice the navigational difficulties which have been introduced this year to complicate their existence. Louds of minutes could be lost by vehicles blocked in the sand.
The GREEN section of the route is the connection , the RED is the Special Section of the stage.

It appears that the cars started about 40 minutes later than scheduled; perhaps due to the bottleneck at the nat'l park?
