Jan 15th, 2016 Dakar Rally Stage 12 Race Info & Discussion

STAGE 12 TRACKING


STAGE 12: SAN JUAN > VILLA CARLOS PAZ

Connection 450km | Special Stage 481km | Total 931km

COURSE OVERVIEW

There is more than 900km to cover on the day before the finish, including more than half in the special section, with the exception of the trucks, whose dimensions are not suitable for some of the tracks on the agenda. In this semi-mountainous terrain, the vegetation which lines their edges might be a bit tight for them! This means that the other vehicles will also have to show dexterity. Fans of pure driving will be at ease, but they’ll have to watch out for blunders: at this stage in the game, a mistake could cost them dearly.

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

Go Robby Go. Only 6 seconds ahead of the 306 and it looks like 40 mins from WP7 to WP8 so now we have to wait.

So far at WP8 with 10 cars in, the best pug is 7th. Could it be we have a podium today with no pugs on it?

WP8 -10:12
