Rally drivers are built different.

I would go in an F1 car for laps all day long, I am not sure I'd go in a Rally car, I am terrified of those things.

@lenser.competition says:

Different disciplines, different skill set. Both superhuman, but in their own way.

@geraldstiling3735 says:

In Finland ???? they start learning really young and on unsalted roads ❄️????️

@antiduckable says:

The ironic thing is… Mika Häkkinen did rally in 2002 and 2004.

@100greggy says:

Yeah rally drivers can play with their cars, make it go exactly where they need it to. Graceful

@RavenGTR79 says:

F1 drivers are definitely a breed apart but when they say Rally Drivers are too much for them then you pretty much know without a doubt "Braking like you're trying to see God" isn't just a saying as they literally live it.

@haveaday1812 says:

Race car drivers and famous people say that about flying with Jet pilots too. You have no idea that you are in an entirely different realm when flying in a machine like that.

@erikalston4496 says:

It's not talent its Fearlessness. As you get older you lose this… the window of time you can do this is short.

@michaelashby2925 says:

Don't be so disrespectful because you were crap they are all masters of there own sport in any sport

@kimwarfield1587 says:

I think their opinions would be different if they were driving and not passengers.

@robtaylor7500 says:

@zodiac909 says:

Legends recognize legends.

@escapevelocity8092 says:

Rally drivers are dealing with a level of entropy which fars outweighs that which F1 drivers are going through.

F1 has almost mathematically perfect conditions in terms of calculating traction forces and geometry of the track, so its hevily 'left brained', like a fighter jet pilot or engineer.

Rally drivers are literally one with the car, its an extension of themselves and no 2 laps/stages are remotely the same, because so much depends on 'feeling'. The tyres are like rubber gloves while they're feeling whats underneath them.

Both of course masterful arts but theres a little more 'crazy' in rallying for sure????

@COSMOS-UNO-JUSTICE says:

Fair play to Mika for saying stop and getting out ????

@nellydelgado5573 says:

F1 is so freaking overrated.
