STAGE 10 TRACKING

STAGE 10: CALAMA > SALTA

Connection 501km | Special Stage 359km | Total 860km

COURSE OVERVIEW

The motorcyclists and quad bikers will set off for their second marathon stage! After the Chile-Argentina border, this time the day’s special stage will start on the Salinas Grandes, more than 3,600m above sea level. The altitude should curb the competitors’ enthusiasm and cool down their engines. The more technical final phase will separate the toughest of them from the rest. For the liaison section, the route will then follow the Paso de l’Acay, at an altitude of 4,970m.

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

Notice he is 15th now.... You have to wait for the cars that started behind him to get to the WP; in order to calculate their time.

It looks kind of looks weird, but it's not. He actually got to the WP as the seventh car, but after the time of all the cars which started behind him are calculated, it works it's self out after a while. I wish I could explain it a little better, sorry if I am making it more confusing.
