Connection 485km | Special Stage 278km | Total 763km
COURSE OVERVIEW
The Fiambala dunes have become one of the decisive stages of the Dakar. This year, they feature at the heart of the most critical rally sequence, when drivers and their vehicles will have to demonstrate their aptitude for extreme endurance. Moreover, the day’s stage presents the longest dune section in the shared history of the Dakar and Fiambala, off-piste for most of the time. In short, an open door for desert specialists.
The GREEN section of the route is the connection , the RED is the Special Section of the stage.

Is sheldon out?
Ouch! Upside, Robby can go mental with the Gordini as the crew has only one car to work on.

12:05 : Stage to end at CP5
Due to the same thunderstorms last night that delayed the start of the stage this morning, the stage will end at CP5 (km 244.7) for all categories. A swollen río several kilometres after the checkpoint has become impassable.
Yes, he does. But he did great for his first time and learned a lot for next time. He was a good support for Robby..... He should be proud of his accomplishments for the Dakar...
He was so "close" to the end. I'd be bummed too.
Looks like Sanz may be having a bad day
