That level of driving really seems superhuman. Always amazed by the skills and the courage of these guys!

[@georgenene1419]

Visual acuity has to be perfect,all senses have to work in tardem,very high concentration!for f1,all these have to be better!

[@zwjna]

@@georgenene1419 What did you mean with the F1 part? Literally what it says there? In which case, I don't agree at all. Rally is much more demanding.

[@ktwei]

It's amazing they don't get punctures within the first 30 seconds.

[@mwat22]

Tires, they are very different from the ones in your ordinary car and also quite expensive by a significant margin

[@ferryfernandus1423]

yet some people already got puncture, like his teammate takamoto Katsuta and Elfyn Evans ​@@mwat22

[@thatweirdguyfromtheinterne9002]

they run lower pressures too ​@@mwat22

[@MrBilards]

Rally suspensione can absorb a lot more, so the tyre doesn't get hit ass much

[@charlessale409]

There has been a lot of punctures this rally. Kalle has managed to be ‘lucky’ - ie he is superhuman.

[@MpenduloYT]

I couldn't close my mouth for 7 minutes.. this is insane driving😭😵‍💫 So much info to process, all happening so fast. The car never stopped screaming throughout the stage! So beautiful! I'm new to rally, nd I'm blown away!

Thank you very much for this beautiful content. If there are any plans to upload another onboard from this rally, I suggest Tänak's camera behind the seats on the stages he had intercom issues. It could be interesting seeing the co-driver making hand gestures and how Tänak manages the driving!

[@eugenechege6101]

DAMN SMOOTH!!! no under or over steering, light on the crest and speed was on point well DONE

[@obriankiliko9614]

The reliability of these Toyotas is on another level. Great car.

[@user-mx4vs1ul9s]

This entire stage seems to have been curved right out of the mountains. Absolutely incredible performance on that terrain. Also, an incredible backdrop with the white steam clouds from the geothermal power plants.

That's not a road, that's a minefield. If a regular car drove down that road at speed the car would be destroyed.

Привет из России, город Новочеркасск. Очень, очень красивая езда, я сам 38 лет назад участвовал в ралли, четыре года. Такое впечатление что они этот участок сто раз проезжали, но это не вазможно по правилам. Как бы хотелось проехать с любым гоньщико на штурманском месте. Все гонщики поголовно там классно ездеют. Удачи вам ребята, и всем финиша.

I remember that in the 90’s for Safari rally special chassis were used - heavier and more durable. I wonder how it is now?

[@mrdavies09]

I've been looking in to it and there are no major modifications for the new Kenyan rallies. They only cover about 360km of timed stages now as opposed to about 2000km that they did years ago.

[@petertimowreef9085]

How the heck do you make a suspension that on the one hand is soft and compliant enough to handle literal jumps, but on the other hand sharp and direct enough to almost instantly react to the driver's input? The way this car is able to switch directions at a flick of the steering wheel is mind boggling.

Those are not drinking water pipes... They deliver water to geothermal plants(thus the steaming areas on the distance)

Dont be foolish :D

[@daviddavis7959]

This area is known for geotheraml power. 60% of Kenyas energy is from geothermal. This area has lots of megawatts of geothermal. the steam you see at a distance is probably a geothermal plant
