Dakar stage six cancelled
Due to rain and snow continuing over the Andes Mountain Range,
the Chilean authorities were forced to close the border at the Paso de
San Francisco pass, situated at 4700 m. Because of the extremely
difficult conditions, the organisers have decided to organise a convoy
for all vehicles tomorrow, in order to guarantee the security of the
competitors and those following the rally. The itinerary will change
and the Andes will be crossed using another route.
