STAGE 3 TRACKING


STAGE 3: SAN JUAN > CHILECITO

Connection 258km | Special Stage 284km | Total 542km

COURSE OVERVIEW

The pressure which competitors faced the day before (and late into the night for some of them), will partly ease off on the road to Chilecito. The shorter and less intense stage will allow them to enjoy their majestic surroundings. The red earth tracks, overlooking steep peaks and plunging down into canyons, will take the Dakar through one of the most beautiful regions of Argentina. But no-one should be tempted to sit back and enjoy the view, particularly on the motorcycle and quad bike routes which include some gruelling sections. With thousands of stones to be avoided, it will only take one to ruin this magnificent day!


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

Thanks Mike! I do want a few #1s for bragging rights though!!

We have launch times yet?

Nasser 7:20 local

I'll be getting up at my normal 6:00 AM PST just like today. That time works fine every year for me.

I plan to go back to sleep at that time

I'm thinking lot's of left coaster's will find the stage is over by the time they get up

Mike, I know I will be watching the replays by getting up at that time. That's fine with me. My being here in person has no bearing on how Robby runs tomorrow.

True and fair enough.

Here are the launch times for stage 3

Robby Gordon will be the 50th car off the line at 6:22am/et

Robby should use his 'ELITE' driver privilege tomorrow.

I agree.

Glad they can fix the issue and continue . Never give up.

Maybe he wants the extra time?
