The All Time Greatest Rallying Meltdowns 

I love how Eriksen didn't seem that angry first but then started to go crazy after he saw how fuming Mads was. What a perfect co-driver

"I need to go to sleep and to relax a little bit because I…………………….. you understand" yes Gigi, completely understand 😂

I love the way the co-driver of one of the Citroens threw his notebook when he saw his driver ragequit like he decided he needed to rage

WTF was Pons thinking? Just brake and wait for the codriver to find his place. Jesus

You left the most memorable meltdown in the history of Rallying "Samir"

My favorite is "YOU ARE BREAKING THE CAR, SAMIR"

2:22 The Co-driver is thinking “This is awkward. What do I do now to stop the Driver from hitting me? I know, I will throw my pace notes down, so I look angry too”.

I like how for the Mads bit you also censored him saying "Pirelli" as if it is a swearword lol😊

The last guy handled it way more maturely, but I can imagine how frustrating it would be

Love the voiceover here, the guy definitely did his homework and cares about what he's doing. The pronunciations are top notch, and the excitement seeps through.

The xavi pons one was hard to watch whilst his co driver was crying at the end of the stage

0:48 is fixing the gps like an old television ahah

Now we need copilots hitting drivers for making mistakes lol

The one with Sainz retiring just before the end,and lost the championship..... I wasn't even alive at the time and i dont know how I'd have reacted to it,as a huge Sainz admirer. This has to be the most painful retirement on WRC

Gigi Galli was unhinged. Meanwhike, Tanak seemed remarkably composed, not "mad" at all, just devastated, but composed. And drivers getting pissed at co-drivers for an eventual mistake, misteading a note, would be like co-drivers getting pissed at drivers for making a mistake and crashing, right? Same thing, isn't it? Someone making a mistake that interferes in the normal outcome of a race. Problem is, drivers feel they are "more important" than co-drivers, and they have an ego to tame. Loeb, who was always kind, and understanding with Elena, never lost his temper with him whenever he misread pace notes. Then again Loeb is a true gentleman.

2:27 felt like the co driver was just trying his best to match that energy lol

There's something just inherently hilarious about two guys arguing in italian and one of them smacks the other like it's Three Stooges.

3:24 as a Spanish speaker this line hits twice as hard, i can really feel his pain…

I burst out laughing at half the vineyard being dragged back to P/F 😂

2:28 LOL they cut the pirelli rant

3:30 i feel so bad.

man Tanak interview made me tear up a bit too. Even with sim racing, I take it very seriously and sometimes things just don't work.

Jesus Christ Jari Mattis driving style knows no other. The dude flung his cars around, a true fin! My favourite driver of all time!

“Samir, You are breaking the car!!”

1:01 not that rally. PTSD strikes again!

"Por dios, Carlos, trata de arrancarlo" (for god's sake, Carlos, try to start the car), which is what Luis Moya was telling Sainz, is still a rather commonly used expression in Spain.

Losing it at the co-driver's half-hearted "yeah, I'm angry too" throwing of the pace-notes 2:19

0:30 I completely understand….I feel like that all the time😂😂😂😂

It’s good to see all those Mitsubishi EVOs here back to the old days, what a LEGEND!

2:25 co-driver going along with it

Samir breaking the car is the greatest rallying meltdown

That "J** he sido yo tío..." I really felt that, and the "Trata de arrancarlo Carlos..." the most painful one

4:20 You can see on the grass that they were not the first ones... 😅

Samir's co-driver: you are not angry, I AM!

Mäkinen actually got a phonecall mid-interview that he was the champion after all. He was so taken aback. "They didn't wanna push it the rest of the way?" Then after the call: "Guess we're not going home yet after all..." All while maintaining the typical Finnish laconic demeanour.

Last 2 seconds, Aussie accent!! "oh oh, the poor bloke"!!!! 😮😂

3:20 is heartbreaking

3:13 why you would keep yelling at your co-driver instead of letting him read the notes, ending in you crashing makes no sense to me

Mads co driver looks like he’s a little bit scared so decides to join in so he doesn’t turn on him 😂

Great!!! You've covered Ött Tanak's emotions with your "watch this next"!

Ogier = Me at RBR every single time. LOL

"sammy you need to LISTEN TO MY CALLS,"

Ok another comment... I am not sure, but i think after Ott puncture and his tears, the other drivers carried him on their shoulders, back from the field where he was sitting and crying. Those guys care!

5:47 "oh, oh the poor boy!"

I still cannot forget when I've read the tabloid about the ridiculous fines and championship points penalty that Mads Østberg received for swearing on live broadcast....WRC really tried (and probably still is) their hardest to be like WWE in the PG-era..

Only Norwegians understand Østbergs frustrating words 😂

Sami, you're breaking the car!

“Oh, the poor boy!” 4:48 He’s the one racing and you’re the one doing coverage 😂.

3:24 that co driver already felt bad and then it just became the worst day, poor guy pressure got to him

2:20 Mads Ostberg is a little unhappy with his tires and calmly explains to Pirelli how to improve the quality

Still nothing better than "Samir you're breaking the car"

2:01 that’s how Gilles panizzi and his brother Herve took out their frustration at the Argentine driver and co driver of the Subaru for not slowing down and letting them go by and causing them to have a puncture

0:27 imagine she says NO 😁

🔥Funny stuff- rally rage- but we all know it’s difficult to operate at ones best when pissed off…🤬

Gigi Galli comes from the coldest place in Italy 😂

Understandable anger and frustrations they gave their all for the race, it's their lifeline 😢

They're human before anything else. Had any of us possesed their skills and their competitive spirit, we would snap and overreact in situations like these. As a fan, personally, the drama and passion makes the rally events even more interesting. Glory to them 🍻

The last one--Ott

idk why but this puts a smile on my face LOOOOOOOOOOOOL

The pressure and will to win is very very high and this is not accidentally. Because this is the work of the whole team.

4:02 Microsoft always crashing or delaying work…

Me at 2:42 in the first day of 2024 watching this:

number 1 should be " YOUR BREAKING THE CAR SAMIR"

As a sim racer, i know how easy it is to lose your cool when racing. And it gets worse when you start racing angry, as you make more mistakes it just restarts the cycle. Good on them for not throwing their car over the nearest cliff out of pure rage i guess. Edit: Read the replies to my comment before contributing. And im sorry for offending the people that dont think i know that rally racing is more intense.

I don’t know why this is so funny to watch. The whole sport is completely INSANE, to begin with, even when everything goes perfectly according to plan. GLORIOUSLY INSANE !

Im actually excited to see how well airless tires can handle rally racing once they've been perfected for all road conditions.

Sammi.... You are breaking the car, Sammi

When the car appeared wearing half an orchard I totally corpsed 😂😂😂

I remember the Sainz one. utterly soul destroying

I know it's not supposed to be funny, but for some reason, the 0:47 head smack made me laugh xD And whoever that codriver was continued on his job with just a barely annoyed reaction, absolute boss, if that was me I dunno how I could've kept my cool LOL ^^

Jari like Neuville had another problem called "Sebastian".

Those are also the moments fans want to see, they show that these extraordinary drivers also have a character. Just dont give them penalties for stuff like that.

The last one was the only understandable clip. The rest were children

Puncture? Jesus. That tire peaced out the whole rear quarter!

Also Neuville a few years ago in rally poland, threw his helmet on the dash and end hinting Gilsoul... he has a lot of moments

I remember watching that 1998 rally live on TV, could feel the emotions when Carlos' car stopped.

Yeah mate, it's happening to me too. When i think everything was going smoothly. Suddenly, something bad happened 😅😅😅

2:23 HÆLVETE FAEN

A driver and co driver is a perfect example of a symbiotic relationship

WHERE İS THE SAMİİRR ????

You cannot drive with anger hot temper 100 percent you cannot win😂😂😂

Their anger is symptomatic of high anxiety from the turn of the century. Newer drivers are also being drawn from a different pool with higher levels of risk taking and thrill seeking traits

I found this very fun to watch 😊

The fact that half of them are French is not surprising me.

Samir your breaking the car!

Rally is way better than F1. There aren't any trees in f1

3:31 its make me sad

"You understand?"..... Yep!

We don't understand a single one, but we understand like every word.

Where's Samir? that's the greatest meltdown ever

Where is my man SAMIR?

The True Extreme of Man and Machine ...WRC 💥

i wish the "SAMIR YOURE BREAKING THE CAR" clip was here

3:25 pobre hombre !!!

Samir....You're breaking the car!!!

People are much quicker to forgive drivers for their mistakes that send them off the road, than the co-drivers for their mistakes that might send the driver off the road.

SAMMY YOU ARE BREAKING THE CAR

That last one hurt.

You can be angry...but physical attacking your co-pilot is just stupid. Would get out and never back in.

Whats the Mitsubishi in the first clip? I've never seen it.
