07:05 Brabec forced to drop out
Stage ten had a sad end for Ricky Brabec. He was in the top 3 of the special several kilometres from the finish when his Honda gave up the ghost on him. Unable to repair the problem, the American was forced to withdraw from the race and is therefore not present this morning.

Kinda the straw that broke the camels back in regards to my interest in this year's edition. Peter hit another rider smh
there may be more to that story, wait for the story before condemning

start at 2:54, note all the motorbikes headed in the wrong direction? I thought I saw on Twitter ,Leob almost getting a motorbike coming the wrong way .I'm not condemning, looked like mayhem for that way point.

Dammit !!!

07:11 Svitko still in the race
Having been taken from the link stage in an ambulance to the hospital in San Juan after finishing yesterday’s special in a state of exhaustion, in the end Štefan Svitko returned to reclaim his bike in the evening to finish the link stage. The Slovakian is a tough nut to crack and has just followed Joan Barreda onto the day’s special.

09:33 Cervantes drops out
Iván Cervantes has not managed to repair his KTM. The Spaniard has finally decided to exit the race, which means the general standings loses the 15th placed rider two days before the end of the race.

Barreda has made it to WP5, so motorbike racing is on
