I always think that rally driver is a pinnacle of driving skill, with such ability to be fast as possible in many variety of twist, turn, elevation and terrain.

[@poundfoolish8691]

These calls are absolutely crazy as well

[@edgardmachiavello]

If you pay attention, Elfyn never blinks

[@bonsan2011]

There are many mountains in Japan, so there are many forest roads like this in the mountains. And most of it is paved. It feels like I'm looking at the mountain scenery near my hometown, and I'm happy to realize that the tournament is being held in Japan. And since it is autumn at this time of year in Japan, the autumn leaves are in full bloom in the mountains, and I would like to add that it is also enjoyable for sightseeing.

[@GreatistheWorld]

More full Japan onboards please, this is hall of fame material

[@nerdy_dav]

I love some F1. Those guys are talented. But honestly, NOTHING compares to WRC and the talent of the rally drivers. This was epic. The new cars sound great and are the right type of challenge to drive. Wrangling the beautiful strip of tarmac with 500 odd HP on tap like this is special. Kudos Elfyn!

[@FLMKane]

F1 drivers have insane skills. But rallying is inherently more fun for us all.

[@zwjna]

You have uploaded a lot of great content for this rally. Such a great surprise. Lots of onboards, specially that great comparison between Ogier and Neuville. Finally! Thanks for it! Keep it like that!

[@CHIEF_420]

3:23 💪

[@user-tn7wu5eu3b]

This road is the back road of my hometown. I was going down on a bicycle on a rainy day, stepped on moss, slipped and rolled. Moss slips well.

[@connorwolbert9591]

Wow! These pace notes are insane, so detailed and such a massive amount of turns too

[@rniestroj]

Tarmac Quality of Catalunya, turns like in Corsica, trees like in San Remo - the perfect tarmac stage.

[@peterad1529]

3 left over crest, 5 right slippy… maybe -cliff- trees … crash !that’s what I’d do 🤣. What a drive wrc is amazing what teamwork! I’d like to see Evan’s get a championship some day I like that guy

[@PrinceCharmingNY]

so i was loking at the Aneyoshi Tsunami stones and i was looking at the terrain & roads and i was like .. huh .. this would be a great place to have a rally , so here i am and it didn't disappoint. great stuff !!

[@lukasmorski-zmij8030]

That was one sharp stage ^^ anyways always amazed me how copilot almost doesn't look at road ,driver brain like a super processors,driving and listening at this tempo is unhuman

[@7komekome458]

1番きれいな走りでした 優勝おめでとう❤🎉🎉🎉

[@jesusclemente7976]

Thank you for this onboard

[@wheeze5501]

Great reading Scott! The combination with Elfin is also the best.I wish you good luck in next year's championship.

[@阿乱須美志]

日本のSSは狭いなぁ… 舗装は比較的綺麗だと思うけど…苔が浮いてたり落ち葉が酷かったり湧き水あったりターマックなのに狭くて凄い滑りそうで凄い走りにくそう。 比較的自分の住んでる場所から近いからコース見に行ってみようかなぁ。 最後のトンネルが心霊スポットで地元では有名なトンネル『伊勢神トンネル旧道』

[@QuinnBoone]

Thanks for the great onboards. Just makes me want to get wrc+....

[@cyclonicleo]

Very typical of a lot of the mountain roads in Japan. Equal parts scary and beautiful, so they make for very high level rally stages.

[@SolidGeordieMGS]

It honestly baffles me how he can drive that fast and still process every note that he's given. I can't follow the notes just sitting here on my couch!

[@raffriff42]

Remember he *wrote* those notes, together with Scott Martin, in the "recce". They say it feels like your own thoughts coming back to you.

[@SolidGeordieMGS]

Ah that makes sense. I feel less dumb after reading that

[@3rdbasskmd]

改めて日本の山道って狭くてハードなんだとわかる動画。

[@guswaldhalm]

Wonderful stage of the a wonderful rally

[@theunconventionalline]

Amazing

[@CallMeVlork]

Bonkers, what a ride

[@UM_TEST]

ナビがNARROW連発してるし、普段は軽トラぐらいしか通らない典型的な日本の林道だよね。やっぱラリードライバーのテクニックすごいね。

[@danabrilian]

Wow its a forest journey 🇯🇵 japan i love it

[@paultaylor387]

Quality run

[@emanh4keem_san420]

Takumi taught them well

[@akozlowski1990]

Yeah, proper uphill run;)

[@ArnoldTriyudho]

Elfyn Fujiwara Evans momento

[@t0ninus]

Hope to see this in the next WRC videogame. Can't wait to crash into these beautiful red trees.

[@ryan1mcq]

The navigator sounds like hes just reading the turns at his own pace lol, how can a driver focus on the driving while concentrating on the speed while trying to listen to the rapid calls from the nav?! Crazy stuff lol, a well oiled machine 😄

[@user-sj7xs6nd9t]

great driving dude

[@kageshadow9122]

Co-driver Scotto calls pace note like a tongue twister.

[@SarnieBrothers]

Eventually Rally stages in Japan are also used by everyone to learn drifting and touge battle too. So that's why this place is popular.

[@abdi.1944]

I want to watch isegami stage onboard

[@LordBikealot]

You rally guys really do earn your money. What an amazing drive! 👍

[@FLMKane]

GAS GAS GAS!

[@nisshiy1]

マジで助手席に乗ってみたいです。

[@user-yj9ip2xd8e]

多分秒でゲロ吐く

[@schorschkluni5067]

Tunnelvision !👌😁

[@philippegohier6992]

Reverse number is confusing to me 😄

[@ShubhoBose]

i.e. toge WRC, awesome!

[@raunobane9669]

I would really like to drive my own car Ford Fiesta ST150 MK6 over there! So Cool.

[@apple_with_a_human_butt]

evans always looks absolutely terrified when he's driving.

[@lordjaraxxus663]

Great flowy stage, id love this in RBR

[@minigator2]

So much!

[@Jacobmathews.]

Well we got some Spanish stages on the Hungarian plugin so it's quite likely these stages could be added in the future

[@IroAppe]

Hey, I would like to know, how Rally drivers work with the notes being read way in advance, but at the same time, you have to drive in the here and now, the current corner, while simultaneously hearing what comes 2 corners after, and envisioning and remembering that. How does that work? Is there some technique to it?

[@muhammadabrooramrullah4031]

So many obstacle in that small road just like Indonesian road

[@ryanlynch3579]

Good lord, I can't even keep up with the copilot.

[@schorschkluni5067]

This is crazy like Corsica🤔

[@bmerebea4369]

こんな誰が通るかもわからん道までまともに舗装されてる日本ってスゲーなって思う　まぁ昔は用途があったとかそういう背景がある道もあるかも知らんが

[@modestas112911]

Did Elfyn blinked even once?

[@CHIEF_420]

⛽

[@zx-yuyu]

TakumiFujiwara: wtf!!!!!!!!

[@fauxvier8519]

Longest 10 minutes of my life

[@恙恙]

北海道では無い普通のスケールの日本の道路の初年度は池の中の鯨の御様子でしたが一雨も見られましたし来年からの激走に期待して居ます😊

[@user-rf7oe6zj6n]

これみて確信した。とりあえずWRCドライバーには絶対なれない。

[@josebaaostrilozano9650]

si sebastiain loeb en el año que viene se retira

[@Richie_]

Tough rally is Japan.

[@FastFrank1408]

That was soo fuckin siiiiick

[@rubenleitao574]

flappy paddles not allowed in wrc?

[@Route439]

この辺り車やバイクでよく走ってるけど 山道は短い直線で出せて最高60～80km/h ラリーカーなら120km/hぐらい？ 集中力はかなり必要だわ。 後、落ち葉や苔があるとかなり冷や汗かくね。 だが、カーブの後の加速がキモティいい。

[@shitoryu8]

Proof you can be an amazing driver even when sitting that close to the pedals and steering wheel 😂 just compare him and Rovanperra's sitting postures.

[@user-qy9bf7wd1j]

What stands "maybe" for ?

[@georgealoupas6988]

That you might be able to cut in the corner. "Don't" means don't cut in the corner and keep the entirety of the car on the tarmac through the apex.

[@user-qy9bf7wd1j]

@@georgealoupas6988 So maybe and then close eyes ?🤭 So the word maybe you do not wanna hear at all, then you will more like caution.

[@yukiguni310]

ペースノートの作りが普通と違う？ 3ライトより6ライトの方がきついカーブに見える・・・ というかたまに7とか8とか出てくる・・・

[@mariusrosen242]

昔のオンボード映像を見ると、今と逆のパターンを結構見かけます 今は大きい方を緩く言うのが主流っぽいですが とはいえ絶対こうしなきゃいけないというルールはないので ドライバーによって自分なりに分かりやすい言い方にしてるんだと思います 注意！もWatchだったりCautionだったり。。。

[@wintersports112]

2024 Latvia 🇱🇻 will host wrc

[@user-uk4vg8ny1z]

TOYOTA GAZOO Racing🇯🇵🗾GR YARIS RALLY１🇬🇧🇬🇧

[@Random_NewsChannel]

Calls kinda upside down, 1 is almost straight and 6 is hard turn

[@BoJack_HorseFly85]

Maybe. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[@ridhosuryo_89]

initial D vibes

[@akatsuki8057]

（ !! ㅇㅁㅇ）

[@kazumiseiji]

Looks more like touge runs to me rather than rallying

[@PedroSilva-ik8mv]

2:46 "maybe don't", if i'm the fucking driver i would be so pissed about this note XD

[@PacMan592]

Elfyn is good but he looks like he’s about to have a mess in his drawers

[@jackieroberts7895]

and you wouldn't ? 😁

[@PsotnikSC]

Maybe, maybe, maybe do your research next time...

[@R.S.R.S.]

A million curves
