After a first day of adaptation that was quite hard for many, the riders began to prepare for the second day of the race.
On this second day the riders were moved directly into the Andes mountain range where after two hours in the vans, the time to move the legs came.

The place where this day was developed is the typical scenario of the Chilean Cowboys: The “rucos” that are old constructions of stone used today by the cowboys to inhabit when they move the cows and horses from one side to another by the mountain range .
The first special Rucos de Agua was a very natural track, with very fast and techniques zones that were marked by a couple of hills that made the pulsations increase to several. A great special and as Cedric Gracia said: This is Enduro !!!

In this first special of the day the first place was fought among the French compatriots, but it was Francois Bailly-Maitre who took the first place with 11: 53.03 followed very closely by Jerome Clementz with 11.53.35 and in third place the Chilean National Champ Guga Ortiz with 11.56.37.

Among the women the undisputed champion started marking the day’s schedule. Tracy Moseley took the first place with a time of 13: 21.09 followed by Casey Brown with 14: 13.70 and closing the third place was Emily Slaco with 14: 40.79.

The second and last special of the day, Paico Pilar de Piedra, marked a change of pace with respect to the previous circuit. This path required handling to pass undefeated ditches, against calories of the start and switchbacks of the final section.

Jerome was the leader of this special with a time of 10.46.82 followed by Milciades Jaque who was second with 10.47.49 and finally in third place was Yoann Barelli with 10.48.68. Tracy did not give up the first place with a time of 12: 35.05 followed by Casey with 13: 03.64 and third place Pauline Dieffenthaler with 13: 05.42.

The race ended early which allowed the riders to rest in the camp and enjoy a good hot-dog post race to recover and share. The general results chart of Day 2 left Jerome as winner followed by Francois and closing the podium of the day was our great national promise Guga Ortiz. This is just beginning and the Chileans are already giving much to talk about, let’s see how they continue the next few days.

Among the women Tracy was leading without giving a truce to Casey who continues untiringly. Finally Pauline was third.

Results day 2

Jerome 22: 40.17
Francois 22: 46.93
Guga 22: 47.21

Tracy 25.56.14
Casey 27: 17.34
Pauline 27: 57.77

With the results today the General remains very interesting as Jerome keeps the tip followed very closely to only 9 seconds for the Great Milciades Jaque and already last year finished third !! And speaking of third place this François Bailly-Maitre is less than a second away from Micha, so the thing is burning.

In the ladies Tracey Mosley takes a considerable advantage to his teammate Casey Brown who also carries a tremendous advantage to the Canadian Emily Slaco.

General Provisional Results
