STAGE 11 TRACKING


STAGE 11: ANTOFAGASTA > EL SALVADOR

Connection 144km | Special Stage 605km | Total 749km

 

COURSE OVERVIEW

In addition to the distance, here the competitors will be put to the test by all the difficulties offered by the Atacama Desert… and will have to display all the qualities required for off-road races. After the mine tracks and the many rivers to cross, the competitors will have to distinguish themselves in the heart of the Dunes of Copiapo: the fastest motorcyclists are expected to spend seven hours behind the wheel. Needless to say that on this decisive day there will be no shortage of opportunities for competitors to make a winning comeback in the race. This will be the key stage of the 2014 edition.


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

Bikes - Coma in ass - tracking issues???

only for him? missed WP's?

Yes, only Coma missed wp 16 & 17 so far.

Maybe Coma will get a time penalty for missed WP's -and make a race of this.

WOW! And I was just checking in to get final word on the Dakar. Given that the ASO is helping, sounds like it was something well out of control of Robby and the team. Good news is that he will have an open trail with no one in the way. Bad news, lots of tracks and Kellen will have his work cut out for him navigating and deciding which tracks are good.

Could someone send a mass email to everyone when RG starts again?

el gran problema sera que gran parte de la navegación sera de noche, son un promedio de 7 horas en recorrer la etapa

Seafom I swear by it.

Yep, from dusk till dawn - it hard time and -30% of speed.

I would but my mass email is to the church members!!

Couldn`t hurt

Good one

That is great news....I think? Brings up some questions 1. is the timing reset for him. Is the finish cut-off time extended ...cuz if you get a bad load of go-juice in a fuel cell...Its VERY VERY hard to get it out of the foam that is in all cells
