So far it has been superb apart from the dreadfull accident involving the Brits and the loss of a biker under very strange circumstances.
The stages are really good, some very difficult, two end over ends yesterday :doh: :doh: but the enthusiasm of the Argentinians is fantastic with stupendous landscapes.
Enjoy

I think the biker had a anarism which led to an heart attack unfortunately. The two Brits both have thorax problems,one in a a induced coma and the other on life support but both to ill to move to better hospital services.

Add to that the news that Nasser Al Attiyah has been kicked of the rally while he was leading due to him missing several waypoints yesterday. Watching coverage on Eurosports it limited to what to make of it as information seems to be only for works teams. It would be nice to see some more footage of some of the privateer's. The driver and riders have been thrown a few unexpected thing to with like deep mud which ended Stephen Peterhanels (won several time on both bike and car) yesterday because his co-driver was rushed to hospital suffering from exhaustion as a result of the recovery.
