Notes like these are handy for when you can tell that, at present during recce, a corner LOOKS like you can hook your inside tire into, but there's always a chance that the cars ahead of you can dislodge something that, where you once thought it was clean, now has a large stone, or a drop that could end up bending the radiator - and in a hot rough climate like this, that means likely retirement. All from one corner you thought you could cut.
@@poplaurentiu4148 Imagine being the driver, who needs to process the pacenotes and the road's grip and roughness, which will determine the car's current physical state which has to be understood and handled throughout every one of those 25 minutes; predicting how the car will behave meters ahead to avoid doing things that can lead to unfixable mistakes; following the fastest line that offers more grip and allows to corner without having to reduce much speed, left-foot-braking to destabilize the rear axle to set the car for the exit of the corner, braking using the maximum braking power of the car but never locking the wheels nor ruining the traction in the slightest, etc. This ain't daily driving. This ain't about going fast. This is pushing to the absolute limits, as with most of motorsport. And taking the most out of the car on rally driving requires incomparable levels of concentration, as slight mistakes cost precious tenths of a second, and world-class drivers like those fight for tenths of a second per corner.
It's so much to take in, so much detail, better than 4 right into 3 left caution like with DR2.0 etc. Also he uses don't rather than don't cut to save confusion.
I swear rally co-drivers are a different breed. I can barely read a book in car on the driveway without feeling uneasy. These guys out there reading through a lengthy list of detailed notes and speaking them out loud in a comprehensible manner while going at high speeds on a narrow, bumpy, dirt road like it's an everyday job is fucking wild.
The ability to drive at this speed, on this surface, while processing the information coming from the co-driver, over such a long stage is just breathtaking to me
Wow... even as a lontime rally fan, I'm absolutely amazed. This is why they're some of the best drivers and co-drivers in the world. Keeping focus for 25 minutes and 35 km, not getting distracted by the helicopter, the fans, the photographers or your own mistakes, being able to read the notes and focus on hearing them despite them coming so quickly, while driving at your absolute best, feeling the grip and the forces, taking care of not only the steering wheel and pedals, but also the gear stick and the hybrid deployment, just wow. Plus the strong heat. I would have crashed so many times there :D And then, if you think back to the old days, where people had to do a bunch of long stages like this in the likes of Group B, with manual transmissions and stuff. Must have been even harder. It must be absolutely physically and mentally draining to do a stage like this one. Huge respect for the crews. I'm a big fan of Elfyn and Scott, hope they can get some wins soon. It's also amazing what the car can do, the suspension taking all the hard hits like nothing. Would be super cool if we could get a stage like this one in some really good rally game. I'd love it if I had to really drive by the notes. Maybe the upcoming WRC game from Codemasters? :)
Rallysimfans' RBR has about 400 different stages, including very long ones, and the RBR community developed a program to do your own recce (create your own pacenotes) for any stage. And then, it has the most realistic physics (NGP) that exist, far superior than WRC's and Dirt Rally's physics - according to real WRC drivers.
It is quite demanding sport, G force makes it even more psychically demanding. Tänak sayd few years back, that he usually loses 3-4 kg of weight per rally. It like high intensity gym.
@@slavplaysgames Right? After a 20 minute course in Dirt Rally 2 my brain would be mush, let alone my arms and legs being broken from fatigue. Compare how red Elfyn's face is from the start to the end!
God damn. Usually I can’t watch a video with out getting distracted. But this I sat still for the whole thing. It was alot of fun trying to follow their pace notes. I have stages over 8 mins in dr2 but 25 minutes is insane. Mad respect.
Es de no creerse cómo manejan tan preciso,tan bien,a esa velocidad es algo que de verdad hace que se ponga la piel chinita. Gracias por venir a México,a Guanajuato y más por estar en mi bonito Leon dónde "la vida no vale nada" y vaya que ustedes si le hacen honor a esa canción. 😊...😎🤜🏽💥🤛🏽
A few jaw-dropping moments: - The speed they carry before and through the right turn at 3:10 - That right then left turn at 5:15 - The jump/left turn combo at 8:03 Excited to keep watching. How many times do you think they blink in total throughout this stage? Just incredible. I'd love to see their live speed overlaid on the video.
Truely skill's! So cool to get a pice of the action right there, spot on, in the seat with him! Big respect out to Evens! Huge thanks to FIA WRC for shareing this
Simplemente wooow son increíbles al poder conducir a esa velocidad y con esa presicion. Simplemente es wooow no tengo palabras. Un placer verlos correr y que vengan a México. Gracias gracias gracias por ello 🥰🤗🤗🤗
This exhausted me just from watching it! Seriously! I don't understand why WRC isn't the most popular sport on TV! Just compare it to the snoozefest of the various kinds of football or basketball or whateverball. Rally is literally a life or death sport done at 100+ kph! What on fucking earth can be more entertaining than that? This is podracing!
Truly unbelieaveble performance by the driver and a co-driver as well. Such a difficult track, its just so amazing to watch, how awsome they are. Respect 🤘
It’s not just the driving, which is spectacular, but the fact he is processing the pace notes two corners ahead. These drivers brains operate on a completely different level to the average human being. And the codriver has to stay composed and focused, whatever is going on outside the car and whatever mistakes are made by the driver. The tone of his voice is like he’s just directing a mate to the shops. These guys are really something else.
one of my favorite stages in the whole championship. co-driver did an impressive job, clear and accurate, excellent timing, driver was r(e)ally focused, stellar job
" NOT SO BAD " 😂 You badass Elfyn 😅 made me 😰 sweaty ... and co-driver Martin for sure, too ! Truly superbly Focussed, despite incoming Helicopter. Keep on smiling, making us laugh, with you both... all the way. CROESO Y CYMRU
what an absolute pleasure to watch, that was so game like it's uncanny... too much color in the game compared to the real life visual counterpart other than that so alike... full stage onboards are much better than highlights ;) thank you for showing.
This man amasses me. His head close to the steering wheel and always looks driving as though scared. Does he have time to brink? That speed is awesome. Scott Martin work is on another level. Reading and shouting those pace notes at that speed is phenomenal. And he does it effortlessly.
Gosh idk how you'd maintain that for 25 minutes after a full day of driving. They're not just pilots, they're athletes! Maintaining that level of focus on the road and also listening to the calls. Wow. I am usually happy to finish a 15-minute stage. Also Elfyn Left me behind after the first two corners tbh. How does someone get that good at rally?
The long and extremely difficult stages keeps the driver and the co-driver very focused. It becomes as if their brains are connected to the road and synchronizing with it, avoiding the endless hidden rocks, ditches and small trees almost on every corner. That stage is brutal and unmerciful, only the professional drivers, co-drivers, teams and amazingly built machines can go through it, well done.
I really miss those old-school WRC onboard camera shots. They used to make you feel like you were actually sitting in the back seat, checking out every little move the driver made. But now, it's more like you're chilling on the hood, just keeping an eye on the road.
I can't even control my car in a Rally sim in the Mexican Rally stage and always scared to veer off to the cliffs for 3-5 minutes. But this...irl...did not waver in this stage...for 25 f*cking minutes!!! 🤯
This is a great training adjunct to my WRC computer game. Co-pilot's timing of instructions means he has to keep his attention on both his notes and the road. One day this will be done on a driver's heads up display with diagrammatic overlays of the best line using A.I. in real time, and there won't be a need for a co-pilot.
Thats incredible, keeping the pacenotes during 23 minutes and keeping the communication sharp its insane, insane Co-Driver.
The "maybe don't" pace note is my new favorite thing. 😂
“Maybe Trim”
Also "late-ish 6 right" had me in stitches
@@mdo lmfao right "yea mate i have no idea when this corner actually stars but it is a 6 right"

@@nightowlrallywow nice answer thank you👌🏻
The content we all want on TH-cam! Thank you!! 🙌🏻

You're not wrong, hopefully we'll get many more.
yoo another wrc disc golf fan
Agreed 👏🏻
agree
the ability to keep focus and concentration ALONE for 25mins under this speed is extraordinary!
Also one of the last stages and he has to be mindful about his tyres. These drivers are insane
he didnt blink once 😂
well its not that hard to keep focus when your life depends on it
@@Skafiskafnjak51 If driver is concentrated imagine to be the co-driver who need to read everything ahead..

They are both Epic by giving everything they got best on this stage..
The absolute surgical precision of each steering wheel input is exquisite to watch. Rally drivers are truly the masters of motorsport.

Dirt Rally 2.0 is 10 bucks on steam. Hurry, go go go…
RBR is free! And has much better physics imo.

😢Not only that if you crashed group b cages and stuff were terrible compared to today safety
not everyone has a PC@@Arnogorter
Just awesome! And trying to follow along with the lightning notes is an experience 😳
Now thats what we want to see. Also great stage.
All of that awesome attacking the track & fastest by 1.7 seconds! 😳🤯
The pure physical fitness needed to race such a long course is crazy. Truly man and machine melding into one
Agreed keeping the focus and having the endurance is quite amazing.
i struggle on the video game tbh my brain is swollen after finishing hahaga

23:10 - 23:40 insane
I think my face would be pale, almost dying of fear. The speed is insane.
I thought he was going to kick flip the car for a second. He just threw it around so hard.
He just kept the throttle pinned 😯
A few jaw-dropping moments:
- The speed they carry before and through the right turn at 3:10
- That right then left turn at 5:15
- The jump/left turn combo at 8:03

What a team, absolutely amazing car , driver and co driver. Absolute admiration for Elfyn and Scott. Fantastic.
TOP!!! You should consider creating a window just for the footwork... Best wishes!!! Very cool
Sometimes they do but it depends on the car. Different cars have different camera angles set up.
Thanks for this upload. These drivers are built different

My god I needed a mental break to decompress just from watching this stage. Felt like giving a standing ovation from my living room. Wicked stage.
Thank you WRC Media Team. This is mental.
It’s like art it’s so precise
thank u for sharing, this is amazing we get to see this! tyty!
one of my favorite stages in the whole championship. co-driver did an impressive job, clear and accurate, excellent timing, driver was r(e)ally focused, stellar job
i clicked like button the moment i read the title!! thankyou!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What a stage! I would LOVE to rip this track! Up here in New England our stages are soooo short!
We need more of these long onboards. Especially Evans and Martin!
Man I don't care what anyone says these are the best drivers on the planet
Concentration is on the next level for sure. He's extremely talented and even more BRAVE.
Finally! They've started listening to us.. 🎉🎉🎉 thankyou!! And its my fellow countryman!👏💪
What a SEND!! Thanks to WRC Generations for put me into WRC championship again!
Amazing onboard video ❤, more more more
Nice to see that the onboards finally have decent sound!
I’d love to see more full stage onboards, this was fantastic!

More of this!🤩
Incredible! It was super fun to watch
stunning stage by Elfyn!!

" so game like" 🤨 I think you need a break from gaming Jay.😂
I think its just the quality of the camera and the video getting compressed to hell
like the gta v realistic mods that tone down lighting to mimic dash cam footage

Why expect a crash?
Happy career for this guy❤
Love this, thank you!
как он шёл 😱местами я думал он слетит Но проходил устойчиво!потрясающе 💐👍💪👏👏👏👏

The pace notes are so good
Magnifique vidéo bravo elfin 👏👏👏👌👌👌👌👍👍👍👍👍
Holy hell that was haulin ass! The capability of both the car & the driver to wring it's neck that hard is absolutely outstanding!
Amazing driving 😮
Awesome stuff. The art of rally

23:14 my lord!! the speed on such a narrow road omg! 😰😰😰
Narrow and bumpy aswell.
This is epic....these drivers are mental in such a good way...😁
Really looking forward to the 2023 50 km stage in Sardinia! (Monte Lerno SS)
Incredible. The spotter role is fascinating as well
the stage looks soo fun!
I will say this over and over again, rally drivers and their co-drivers are on another level.
Superb content. Excellent video.
I can’t even drive this bravely in a video game.
Perfección de conducción 100
Such an very professional driver and co-driver👏
the engineering behind these machines is something to admire.
Is it my birthday? Not only are the highlights better this year, but this is quite a treat.
This whole stage is just insanse but my God, from 22:00 and on its level 100 intense! WOW
This is the sort of run I'd have in a Rally game after around 2000 attempts on a stage like this. Insane
incredible...time to play some Dirt 2, I'm pumped now hehe
This is the sort of content i can see all day long
Thats is so cool. Good job wrc
