While the majority of headlines focus on the WRC drivers, the challenges facing their co-drivers are no less demanding 💪 ✍️ TommyHoward got in the passenger seat with TGR_WRC to find out what it takes to succeed ⬇️
"It’s not something you can just jump in and do, which I think you will find out shortly.” Those are the words relayed by Toyota World Rally Championship co-driver Aaron Johnston as Autosport dons a racesuit, grabs a pacenote book and prepares to jump into his seat to attempt one of motorsport’s toughest jobs: being a WRC co-driver.
This is made abundantly clear six minutes and several dubious pacenote calls later as a stunned journalist clambers out of Takamoto Katsuta’s Toyota GR Yaris Rally1, following an eye-opening blast through one of Finland’s famously fast forest gravel roads. Calling pacenotes in a top-level WRC car is without question a skill that few in this world possess, and an art form that takes years of dedication to perfect.
