maybe..a few mis-calls from the navigator ! Otherwise, death valley for some motorcyclists in the past.
Insane! :o If everything else wasn't challenging enough , the 3 sheep "spectating" at 5:30 could have shortened the video somewhat.
Thats the quick way across town.
A lot of "Maybe" from the navigator? I'd hate that job!

Dead right Frank.
I am so chicken shit that the only way I would do that job is with triple layered undies, a blind fold and a bottle of tequila..
...the tequila is for post crash recovery first aid ;D
I have to say I have never heard the use of "maybe" in rallying notes before. Still only goes to show what a great driver Vatanan is. What a ride !
What an amazing drive
I was shitting myself in front of the PC - Judas Priest, poor navigator bastard

I've watched a fair amount of rally, and "maybe" is fairly common in pacenotes. I gather it means something like "it's a 5 left, but 'maybe' just a tiny bit slower than a 5 left"
Yeah know what you mean Pep !! Me too. I remember once talking to a navigator of Possum Bourne's after finishing a night stage (I was the control point stage commander) and he got out of the car, and commented that Possum had scared the crapola out of him. This guy was a professional, I would hate to think how someone not used to this sort of speed and car control would cope. Am sure you would need cast iron undies !! ;D
Maybe so Sheldon, buy likewise I have too a little experience, and I havn't heard it before, hence the comment. Seems an odd terminology and too vague to be helpful. Most driver/navigator (co-drivers), and especially top level ones (ie. WRC etc) use numerical pace notes (ie. 1-6 or 1-10 ratings for corners etc) with some specific warnings (ie. hazards etc) rather than purely commentary based notes from my experience.
:o :o :o
Just think, every time Vantanen clips his fingernails, he discards more talent than I possess in my entire being.
I think I may go and hand my race licence in, clearly I am not worthy....
