Why Do Rally Drivers Need Co-Drivers? | WRC 2019

Rallying is very much a 2 man sport. The drivers, by their very own admission, could not achieve what they do without their co-driver. You might think the co-driver just reads the pace notes, but this is a job that is nowhere near as straightforward as it sounds. Pace notes are the key to navigating through the stages. However, if you get lost, the consequences can be drastic, as Daniel Elena found out in Turkey with Sébastien Loeb. The pair ran out of fuel and retired from the rally. Michael Park was with Markko Märtin in Kenya when he left his notes in the service park just before a 100km stage. Fortunately they had a spotter helicopter that was able to guide them through the rest of the test. Sometimes though, you just lose your place, as Carlos Delbario found out along side Xavier Pons in Germany... and Xavier didn't carry much sympathy. A trip through the vineyard didn't help Delbario's plight, his guilt plain to see at the end of the stage. And then you might simply misread a note, but at over 100 miles an hour the effect is often catastrophic - as Paul Nagle found out in Corsica, 2018.
Sometimes the job can be just plain painful. First Daniel Elena winded on a jump and could barely read the pace notes. Then Timo Rautiainen injured his back on the very same kicker. Worse was to come for Rautiainen, a steel pin piercing the bottom of the car in Turkey, and going through his seat. Even Marcus Grönholm was concerned.
Sometimes you need to choose your driver more carefully. Guido D'Amore feeling the wrath of Gigi Galli. Gigi followed this up by breaking Giovanni Bernacchini's nose when he threw him a bottle of water.
Then there are the random little extras that come your way: Julian Ingrassia having to open a gate mid-stage for his driver Sebastian Ogier. Four years later back in Mexico, and this time it's Anders Jaeger being asked to step out of the car.
Mechanical skills are also a requirement but not often whilst the car is moving, Phil Mills had a case of the steering wheel coming loose mid stage and having to fix it while in motion, still finishing the stage in second.
Phil was again on duty for an extra task when a bird came through the air intake mid-stage, not that Petter Solberg noticed.
Finally, you have to ready for just about anything. Daniel Elena starring again as he was forced to act as ballast when they lost the rear right wheel. He had to then negotiate with local police who were not overly impressed with his new driving position.
For a co-driver, it's all in a day's work. So, do you fancy having a go? One thing's for sure: this is NOT a dull job!

If you are talking about 1:12, that's Carlos del Barrio. He got lost while reading the notes and the driver had to tell him the info about the road so he could find it and read the pace notes but then they cashed. Carlos even says "That was my fault", because he just lost the line which he was reading and couldn't find what page to read next.

Watching as a young man I'm now 58 I was always amazed by the driver co-driver communication and cooperation I've never driven in a real rally only driven to live in crap out of them on Xbox I noticed the subtle differences in co-drivers and I was able to adapt very quickly with better than average lap times first time running the course with that I'd love to give it a shot at a co-driver for real not on Xbox either. 🤓🤓🤓😷
Co-driver is a role where you must be athletic and physically strong just to read the notes. Since both driver and co-driver are in the same car, its obvious that Co-driver through the same physical demands experienced by the driver. The only exception is he is not handling the car but controlling it without touching the steering and the brakes.

X32 22A it basically means. “My co-driver doesn’t do what I say, I do what my co-driver says”. Simply meaning the driver has to do exactly as the co-driver says or they’ll probably crash, as can be seen in the video. So the co-driver is effectively in charge.

@@Sir_Budginton If there's no co-driver, they'd just drive slowly unless they know [parts of] the stages from previous events. They crash because they trust their co-drivers, not because they are brainlets that definitely need them as the phrase "otherwise they'll crash" makes them look. While I know co-drivers' job is hard, it's the driver the one in charge; the one with the bigger and harder amount of tasks needed to be done during a stage. So I think that phrase was a compliment to Michael, or maybe because in this very special case it was Michael the one "in charge."

because he'll kill the co driver
Damn! Never really knew just how tough the position of being the co-driver can be. Much respect to the people who can handle such an intense job. Awesome video!
I was literally about to search why rally drivers need co-drivers 2 seconds before watching this video, but then I noticed this video in my recommended, so, happy coincidences!
Somehow I love this sport, since I was in junior high school
Can we just appreciate the beauty of that Citroen Xsara 😭

The Xsara was truly an amazing car, Loeb said that its his favourite car in every interview he did. And im a proud owner of a coupe '99 Xsara VTS and fall deep in love with Her every time i start her engine 😍

Regular Citroen Xsaras are a piece of crap but I gotta pay respect where it's due, it's one hell of a rally car.
Ahhhh you cannot make a video about co-drivers and not mention Nicky Grist; he's a legend, courageous enough to be Colin's co-driver. How could forget that accident where Nicky spelled "don't cut" and Colin heard "cut", resulted in multiple rolls of the Focus 😮

He actually said "cut", but it was meant for the following corner. He said it just as they were into the fast right and McRae impulsively decided to cut (his own admission), hit the bank and rolled out of the title fight. That title in 2001 should have been his...

Nicky also won a title with Kankunnen, mostly overlooked, also he co-drove armin schwartz in a few rallies
I felt when he said “5 left?” 😂🤷🏾
I'm ready!
Co-drivers are arguably more nuts than the drivers. They're doing all the same crazy shit but they have absolutely no control. Hats off to those guys
Thanks! This video gives me tons more respect towards co-drivers.

Definitely the best motorsport... Always amazing to watch.
So much footage from my favorite era of rally, when Tommi Makinen was driving 👍🏼👍🏼
This is a fun video. RBM 👍
Since Rally 2005, Sebestian Loeb is my favourite, I'm a big fan of him.
Petter Solberg, Sebastien Loeb and Marcus Gronholm were the best rally era ever!

@@kike-Z Yeah but that doesn't take away from the skill that it takes to drive 140+ KM/h on a rough, narrow gravel road. Group B was tough sure. But the new technology of WRC doesn't make it any easier than Group B, really. You're still going blazingly fast down a rough gravel road. Just because WRC has more technology improvements doesn't mean that the skill of drivers today should be thrown in the trash. If anything the new WRC is almost the same as Group B, guess you need the drivers dying from throwing themselves off cliffs to be happy though and plowing into crowds and killing children for it to have that "true" Group B feel though eh?

WRC drivers are considered the most skilled in the world in rallying, just like the group b drivers. However you should take into account it was banned for a reason. I might be wrong but i think after it was banned a study was made and it concluded that group b cars got to the point where the human brain simply could not keep up with the car, back then that was as fast as you could possibly go on a rally stage both tecnologically and skill wise, nowadays i dont think it is true due to the regulations. But make no mistake i know even with all the limitations to the wrc cars they are still beasts

Do anyone remember that Timo's first back- ingury resulted in a by 4 sec fastest time on the same Stage, by Marcus Grönholm ? NO NOTES - and still, by memory ; fastest on that stage 🇫🇮💞🤠
Timo Rautinainen is a legend in 2 Forms, One is a Great Friend and is a Brother in Law for Marcus and Two is that he's a champion and whatever it takes even if he hurt his back or something goes into his ass. He still continues no matter the consequences because he's fighting for the win for his brother in law
