  • Enjoy this raw, uncut onboard footage from Stage 13 of the Donegal Rally: Knockalla. One of the most famous stages of the rally itself. Ken Block and Alex Gelsomino tackle the tarmac stage starting with surreal ocean views, mixed in with wildly narrow sections and a jump or two in there. Enjoy.

      Don’t confuse sentiment with fact. Ken Block was not one of the best rally drivers ever. Ken Block WAS one of the most talented guys you would ever see when hooning about. His car control and entertainment factor was off the charts, probably the best person to ever sell his talent as pure visual entertainment. Sadly, though, he was not actually the best rally driver, just a fantastic driver who could put on a great display. Rally driving at the absolute pinnacle looks just like the driving in the video, but there is 1% more added that shaves a second or two off the time, something that you and I, and other mere mortals like you and I, are unable to discern let alone replicate. RIP Ken Block, one of the most ENTERTAINING drivers we have ever seen. Not the best rally driver though, .. far from it.

The other numbers indicate the distance for which the corner is about to go on and so on and so forth. It's read in advance by the co-driver so that the driver can form a mental picture of the track up ahead and react accordingly. Co-drivers dont look out of the window to see which turn it is.

      But once you drive for a while you get used to it,rally drivers in the first days they gotta scope out the track before going flatout for bumps and sneaky big rocks.
