Rally drivers are skilled athletes who compete in rally racing, a motorsport that involves driving specially modified cars on various terrains, including dirt, gravel, and snow. They navigate through a series of timed stages, often in remote locations, using detailed maps and pace notes to guide them. These drivers work closely with a co-driver, who provides real-time instructions and information about the course. Rally events can last several days and cover hundreds of miles, making teamwork and communication essential for success. Notable rally events include the WRC (World Rally Championship) and the Dakar Rally.
