How WRC Drivers Know What’s Coming

Ever wondered how our drivers know exactly what to expect before they launch into a fast, blind corner? Welcome to the ultimate reconnaissance mission. In the latest episode of our 'Unsung Heroes of WRC' series, we're riding shotgun with the Route Note Crew. Often the unrecognised masterminds of a rally weekend, these dedicated crews head out onto the stages before the main event to analyse grip levels, spot unexpected hazards, and refine the all-important pace notes. From last-minute tyre strategy recommendations to identifying the trickiest braking zones, their precision and expertise are vital to keeping the Rally1 cars on the road and setting the fastest stage times. Get an exclusive, behind-the-scenes look at the rigorous preparation that happens before the green light.
