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.

WP5 +6:43

Need to wait for Terranova and Van Loon

He's going to get another top 10 today I'm sure. The course that remains favors his driving style and experience

RG getting closer to 327 at WP6!

WP6 -7:16

Looks like he's only 17 sec behind the next position!

3.DeVilliers +32s
4.Loeb +1m40s
5.Hirvonen +1m55s

317 EMILIANO SPATARO(ARG) Renault who was 12th overall at the beginning of the stage lost 1h41m before WP1. He's now over 6h40m back of the overall leader. May be another spot pickup for the 312.

Brabec fading. Blythe ran it out of gas or something.
