STAGE 5 TRACKING
STAGE 5: SAN SALVADOR DE JUJUY > UYUNI
Connection 315km | Special Stage 327km | Total 642km
COURSE OVERVIEW
All round vigilance is required for this second part of the marathon stage: in addition to managing mechanics, particularly the tyres, all the drivers will have to pay attention to their own bodies’ reactions. Entry into Bolivia is also marked by an abrupt increase in altitude, rising to 4,600m –the higher point in Dakar’s story- during the day’s special section. Technically, it is also in this stage that the rally steps up a gear, with the first off-piste sections as well as some navigational gems which might be a headache for some navigators…
The GREEN section of the route is the connection , the RED is the Special Section of the stage.

16:39 : Misfortune for Despres
The mishaps endured by Cyril Despres are likely to put a smile on the faces of Peugeot’s rivals. Cyril Despres lost more than one hour and fifteen minutes today at the wheel of his Peugeot. Suffering from electronic problems, he finished the special at 50 kmph. This result means that his ambitions for this 38th edition have most probably gone up in smoke.
