Stage 11 – Copiapo – Fiambala cancelled

With the disappointment of many competitors the whole special stage between Copiapo and Fiambala was cancelled due to heavy fog. The caravan with all participants, starting at 8 am, moves on from Copiapo, Chile over the high Andes (over 4000m) to the next bivouac in Fiambala, Argentina. Many of the vehicles reach directly La Rioja as the stages Copiapo – Fiambala – La Rioja are the “marathon stage” where competitors need to take care of their vehicles themselves. It is a long trip – 600 km with peak altitudes ranging between 4100 and 4700 metres.
