Dakar 2012 - Sixth stage cancelled!

Dakar rally convoy crossing the Andes

The sixth stage of the Dakar 2012 is cancelled. Due to bad weather situation Chilean authorities closed Paso de San Francisco earlier. Heavy snow and rainfall has been coming down in the area, and the participants of the Dakar will instead make the crossing over the Andes in a convoy. Safety comes first. Atmosphere in the bivouac must not be to joyful, every one is here to race... now losing a possibility of overtaking closest rival. 

Cancelled stage:
Connection: 394km
Special: 247krm
