STAGE 11 TRACKING


STAGE 11: LA RIOJA > SAN JUAN

Connection 281km | Special Stage 431km | Total 712km

COURSE OVERVIEW

The level of difficulty remains the same, but variety will favour the most flexible of drivers and teams. Sand in all its forms will feature, particularly fesh-fesh, the most volatile and heavy kind, which demands both dexterity and patience. But speed will also be an advantage in other, straighter sections, featuring gravel and pebbles. Opportunities will be few and far between, but there is still time to shake up the standings, since the terrain will be favourable to creating significant gaps.


The GREEN section of the route is the connection , the RED is the Special Section of the stage.

Damn, shows him 10th - got jumped back by the 317. Add Roma in and RG is really 11th. We need to get the 317 back to get a top 10 for the day.

You guys grip more photos than I for sure ...and if it was any official in any capacity that helped in any way shape or form as to enhance the ability to repair replace and or resurrect the competitive integrity of that vehicle be it in physical, advisory or parts supply effort.........even a taco......that would be to say .....BAD GAMMING

Whaaaat?

yes compare that to this:

No helos, help, assistance, just pure desperation

Hang on Gordini! Just 30 more minutes!

Live Comments:
15:40 : Bikes: the special is stopped at CP2!
The exceedingly difficult weather conditions caused by the extreme heat and the large number of riders in difficulty means that, for obvious safety reasons, the special has been halted at CP2 (after 243 km). However, the car and truck races will continue until the end of the special.

Thanks for the info.

What again?! Did they tell Toby Price this time!!
