FULL 35KM STAGE - SS21 Evans/Martin | WRC Guanajuato Rally México 2023 

The "maybe don't" pace note is my new favorite thing. 😂

The content we all want on RU-vid! Thank you!! 🙌🏻

Thats incredible, keeping the pacenotes during 23 minutes and keeping the communication sharp its insane, insane Co-Driver.

Big shout out to Scott Martin for some top-tier co-driving. I was getting out of breath just listening to his pace notes. Absolutely brutal stage.

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

The absolute surgical precision of each steering wheel input is exquisite to watch. Rally drivers are truly the masters of motorsport.

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? :)

The pure physical fitness needed to race such a long course is crazy. Truly man and machine melding into one

All of that awesome attacking the track & fastest by 1.7 seconds! 😳🤯

Just awesome! And trying to follow along with the lightning notes is an experience 😳

the ability to keep focus and concentration ALONE for 25mins under this speed is extraordinary!

Now thats what we want to see. Also great stage.

That's what we want, WRC. Keep up with catchy thumbnails and you'll be bigger than F1 easily

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.

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.

Such a brutal course.. amazing work.

Need more of this, because it shows not only the ability of the cars, but also the perfect harmony & scouting that the drivers must have.

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.

It’s like art it’s so precise

Pure joy to watch, thanks for sharing

Hope that there are more full rally trscks... so like it😊😊

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 🥰🤗🤗🤗

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

Man your quick, grew up watching his dad for soo long! Nice to see him up there! 🤘

His corner attack is beautiful! wow!

Im so proud

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.

What a team, absolutely amazing car , driver and co driver. Absolute admiration for Elfyn and Scott. Fantastic.

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 🤘

Thank you WRC Media Team. This is mental.

" 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

That was intense man....

Nice to see that the onboards finally have decent sound!

What a SEND!! Thanks to WRC Generations for put me into WRC championship again!

Thanks for this upload. These drivers are built different

TOP!!! You should consider creating a window just for the footwork... Best wishes!!! Very cool

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

The car's speed in the final minutes is astounding. I was already starting to expect a crash. Nicely driven.

i clicked like button the moment i read the title!! thankyou!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Finally! They've started listening to us.. 🎉🎉🎉 thankyou!! And its my fellow countryman!👏💪

We need more of these long onboards. Especially Evans and Martin!

Absolutely insane

I have used this to fall asleep a couple times instead of music, no joke

More of this!🤩

8:06 🤯🤯🤯 he goes crazy

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.

23:14 my lord!! the speed on such a narrow road omg! 😰😰😰

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.

Concentration is on the next level for sure. He's extremely talented and even more BRAVE.

This is the sort of run I'd have in a Rally game after around 2000 attempts on a stage like this. Insane

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?

Incredible! It was super fun to watch

Man I don't care what anyone says these are the best drivers on the planet

thank u for sharing, this is amazing we get to see this! tyty!

What a stage! I would LOVE to rip this track! Up here in New England our stages are soooo short!

Amazing onboard video ❤, more more more

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.

Thx!!! 😃

No rally no party saluti dalla Sardegna

I’d love to see more full stage onboards, this was fantastic!

Happy career for this guy❤

Класс! Как давно это было!!!

LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

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.

The driver is barely blinking it's crazy. He is THAT locked in..

There is nothing more relaxing then codriver pacenotes+engine

The pace notes are so good

This is epic....these drivers are mental in such a good way...😁

Fantastic ❤

stunning stage by Elfyn!!

mad lad 👏

That was amazing.

Awesomeness! 🇬🇧

I love my GR even more now. Amazing drive and co-piloting. Breathtaking

Magnifique vidéo bravo elfin 👏👏👏👌👌👌👌👍👍👍👍👍

Damn he doesn't even blink!

Thats incredible.

Amazing!

I will say this over and over again, rally drivers and their co-drivers are on another level.

Holy hell that was haulin ass! The capability of both the car & the driver to wring it's neck that hard is absolutely outstanding!

Great stage and brilliant driving.

Hermoso

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!!! 🤯

the engineering behind these machines is something to admire.

Very beautiful and clean run!!! Made it out alive, with added training, and had fun. That’s a win

Cingrstuleixons... Felicidades muy buen tramo carrera vida es okay 👏👏👏

That ain’t no man. That’s a machine!!!

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.

Fantastic

Is it my birthday? Not only are the highlights better this year, but this is quite a treat.

absolutely insane

amazing crazy 👍

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!

Nothing touches rally drivers for pure skill and insanity. Best drivers in all motorsport

My brain is fried just watching this. It's a shame the wrc coverage has gone to a streaming service in Australia that hardly anyone watches.

Perfección de conducción 100

The best story ever.

wow his ability to pace it during the tight slow parts and then immediately full send it when there’s the slightest opening is awesome.

😱😱😱😱😱 WRC is maaaaaad

the skill and focus is incredible
