They are also the craziest professional drivers,my eyes hurt everytime I watch onboard footage. I was a big fan of Richard Burns in the late 90s.

The pops and bangs is the antilag.. fuel is squirted in just before the turbo to keep it spinning at max speed to prevent the turbo having to spool up and lose power.. to go with that is often a flame that shoots out of the exhaust.which is any unburnt fuel igniting in the pipe. im sure there is a much more technical explanation, and more accurate..

Could also be limiter that they hitting 🤷🏼‍♂️and maybe fuel that comes in the hot exhaust and ignite ( I know people on the street also tune their car to make these sounds )

The pop sound that you're mentioning is a byproduct of flat-shifting. These cars use dog-ring engagement gearboxes. The dogs are teeth on the selector rings that give a really positive, if clunky, engagement. To change up a gear the gearbox needs to be unloaded before the dogs will disengage from each other, so a signal is sent from a strain gauge in the gear lever/switch in the paddles to cut ignition for a very short moment. This drops engine power briefly, allowing the dogs to disengage and be shifted into engaging the next gear. Fuel isn't stopped being fed into the cylinders during this time, however. So the unburnt fuel passes through the engine without igniting and then ignites in the hot exhaust causing the momentary bang. All this is so the driver doesn't have to lift his foot from the throttle pedal while he changes up, saving valuable time per gear change. As a few people have said already, the other type of popping/banging is the anti-lag system. This is a combination of ECU parameters that hold the throttle open slightly/engage a diverter valve when you lift off the pedal, alters ignition and injection timing so that the ignition event takes place with the exhaust valves already opened, and using this gas expansion directly into the exhaust to keep the turbocharger's turbine pressurised, and therefore rotating. This, in combination with a blow-off valve in the charge piping, results in the driver having instant boost pressure generation when he gets back on the loud pedal because the engine isn't having to spend time and energy overcoming the inertia of the turbocharger. TLDR: It means the engine is more responsive when you're on and off the throttle a lot like a rally driver is.

My uncle took me to the Welsh stage when I was about 9 or 10, My first time I was hooked watching a three-wheeled Ford escort flying around a woods in Wales, the car wash in pieces but the driver kept it on the track and finished the stage the best drivers on the planet without a doubt.

The pop sound from the cars is anti-lag. It's porpouse is to keep the turbo spooled up what means when they get back on the gas, the power doesn't have any delay. All of the parts have to be changed after every race including the whole engine.

If you're getting into rally videos I'd recommend Juha Kankkunen's ST185 Celica that was rolled and managed to make up a huge amount of places. After rolling it he had barely any power, massive body damage, 2 wheel drive and a wheel was basically ripped out. Gives you a good appreciation for the sport.

i think i like this guy, keeps commentary to a nice amount and just enjoys the videos :3 edit: Kinda feels like im watching the normal video, but with a friend so it feels more enjoyable

12:20 anti-lag, when you shift the exhaust pressure lowers in the turbo and cause a lack of boost that lead to a less amount of power available, by throwing a bit of gas in exhaust it creates a fast combustion (the boom) -> pressure -> boost -> more power available

For anyone interested, New WRC Season starts in couple days and from official app you can subscribe and see every, i mean EVERY stage live or on-demand. Approx. 16-20 stages, around 1h per stage

The squeaky noise you hear is actually not the brakes, it's the turbo spooling. Pure sound goodness

The pop sound when the speed is rising is called engine cut (to shift without clutch)

The popping you can hear would be the anti lag. The engine's ECU has a setting were the engine revs don't drop when you take your foot off the gas pedal. It's so the turbo is always on boost and you don't have to get it to spool up again.

@andrejturcan3324

Yes, it is anti lag system (ALS) , but it works a bit differently. Once the foot goes off the accelerator, the ECU changes the timing of the ignition and the spark plug fires not to initiate the expansion phase of the cycle, but during the exhaust phase, so the fuel mixture detonates "in the turbo" to keep it spinning and thus preventing the turbo lag when the accelerator is pushed again.

The pop is turbo antilag, its they simulate a "backfire" on purpose so that the turbo keeps its inertia when they lift the throttle. It helps keeping the engine responsive at any time they need full speed

Next level skill and bravery

One of the stages takes place here in Wales - it's the green blur in the background.

That backfire you are asking for: when the car is accelerating is caused by the upshifts, when braking by downshifts and anti-lag. The reason why backfire happens is the electronic control of the fuel mixture and that when some excess fuel goes into into the exhaust yet unburned it ends up igniting when it reaches the end of the exhaust as it mixes with oxygen and receives heat from the engine.

That sound... Those cars sound angry and upset, in the air. Screaming "Give us soil".

They guys in the opening crash went down a few hundred feet of hillside, basically "shortcutting" a switchback, and rolled several times. They were unharmed. The car...less so.

It's like F1 in the sense that like a Grand Prix each event of round of the championship is held in a different country

The dog got into the stage B thinking. The pop sound is basically an explosion of oil/fuel in the exhaust from the turbo.

This pop is called anti lag and it's basically an intentional missfireing of the engine, that prevents the turbocharger from loosing revs during shifting and reduces turbo lag.

lol prob more like after every stage. changing brakes. my stepdad used to help a rally team in the wrc when it was held in perth wa. it was amazing what the mechanics could do to keep the cars running.

I borrowed my mates lancia delta for a few days while I was having some work done on my car. It didn't have much tech so it suffered from horrible turbo lag. It was hard to drive normally. I would put my foot down & not much would happen, then the turbo spooled up & it went mental. It was uncomfortable, noisy & it drank petrol like a dehydrated hippo. Great fun if you drove it like a looney, but no fun to go to the shops in. Obviously it's designed for racing & not a family runaround. Couldn't wait to get my vauxhall astra SRI back.

The most incredible thing is the roll bar is tested for over 70g , in the first crash they escape on their legs

5:51 nooooooooope. That's the famous Monte Carlo Rally that takes place in the mountains and hills that surround Monaco. It's the first rally of the year, and takes place at the end of January.

Entertainment for the masses

All we know about rallyedrivers is : they tend to like to listen to "Rip&Tear" from the Doom soundtrack, we have no clue as to why . The pop-sound is mostly from shifting ... WRC´s are really short geared (max 210kph on the fastest of stages) to always have that ultra-accelaration on all 4 wheels

theres two different pops you can hear the clip of the car doing circles is the cras sequential transmission sifting it makes a pop because it instantly shifts gears with no clutch, the next clip is a called antilag, basically it keeps the turbo spooled up by creating mini explosions this keeps the power from the turbo until you press the accelerator again

These are some of the best drivers in the world no doubt

When rally car engines backfire that means the driver is either up shifting or downshifting gears.

as said below, but in a single, short comment: backfire is caused by unburnt fuel catching flame on the hot exhaust, which can be due to numerous reasons, like antilag or releasing the gas at high rpm.

Wish I could run rally studded snow tires around town and to the resorts boarding, theMt Baker hwy EAST 542 would be killer in one of those WRC cars

WRC cars are built stupidly tough so a lot of those crashes the driver and navigator walked away from with just a few bruises some cuts at best. the backfire is from shifting gears you can hear the rpm change from higher before the shift to a bit lower after. the backfire is more pronounced on a downshift than a upshift

THEN you have to remember it was even more insane with group B monster horsepower and manual shifting and 3 pedals. The crazy world of rally. My favorite form of motorsport. I wish it was more popular in the US.

WRC spec cars produce aprox 350 ish HP , but make 500-600ft\torque. The popping sound is the ALS retarding timing while opening the fresh air valve producing a pulsed combustion in the exhaust manifold. I've used this system in my cars , the downside is that it shortens the turbo's life considerably.

It’s in Monte-Carlo at the 6 minute.

They are bye far a man from my country Craig breen went 150mph in the dark

Poland is flat. In Finland, rallying is just normal winter driving lol. The popping is one of two things, unburnt fuel vapour being ignited by the hot exhaust gases, or deceleration/rev-limit fuel cut off causing a sudden instantaneous pressure change in the exhaust.

The popping sound is the engine hitting the rev limiter...

You need to know only two things in WRC Rally cars can go up to 350HP and they're reinforced like hell to get the pilot and co-pilot safe during crashes and @ 6:00 Finnland I think, there are Rally tracks in Franc, UK, Finnland, Germany, rarelly in USA, I don't remember the rest of the countries with rally event

the craziest WRC races were recently in Croatia reason? drove on the asphalt but the catch 22 Croatian roads and local roads (where usualy drive WRC) are maintained poor so that the holes are only slightly patched, so you have on the road several versions of different patches, which have a different roughness (grip) so the outer wheel is in a bend with more grip, and the inner one is literally slipping

I can't even finish a rally game

backfire caused by cutting ignition to allow gearbox to change.

The Australian, Kenyan and Finnish legs are car killers. Sweden is generally snow and ice. The drivers and navigators are massively skilled and can jerry rig many component failures, to get the car to services.

You should really do live stream while you watch wrc round. It would be cool. There is one coming next week, maybe not the best one ( best ones are always gravel ) but it will be 3 long days :)

They do maintenance every time the reach the end of each stage

7:45 track?

man if you found this awesome already you should watch some group b clips ! thats back when they had a class where they had no regulations and the spectators would sometimes stand on the road to be as close as possible to the cars ! you will literally pee your pants when you watch those vids man ^^

gasoline passing while gear transmission time gap for instance, and on super hot exaust small explosion..

Pops is antilag it keeps boost at max pressure therefore giving the car max power at lower rpms
