The tightest hairpins may require the use of the handbrake to get round in one go, and these will be described as an acute hairpin on WRC10 or a tight hairpin on Dirt Rally 2.0.Īnother common term is a square left or square right. If the co-driver uses the word hairpin this indicates a very tight corner, slower than a 1 and often close to 180 degrees. But not every corner is described by a number. Rallying: tight corners and hairpinsĪs I said at the beginning, these simple instructions, accompanied by a number and direction form the backbone of most of your pace notes. It’s likely in this example that the left 4 will be coming up soon, and the right hander you are currently heading into was described a few seconds earlier. Now before I move on I want to cover something fundamental for any out there who is already confused… “My codriver is saying left 4 but the corner I’m heading into a right hander? Why is that?” This is because the co-driver is telling you the upcoming corners in advance, so that you can prepare sufficiently. This is not an exact science, since gear selection depends on variables like the cars being driven, the setup, and the conditions, but it’s a good benchmark to help you get used to the system. ![]() Medium speed corners can often be taken in 3rd or 4th gear, while fast, open corners will likely require fifth and sixth gears. 1 signifies super tight corners, so will often need 1st gear. The best way to get used to this numbering system and remember how it works is to associate a number with the gear you are in. 5 means a fast corner and 6 is a very fast and open corner, often flat out or very close. 2 signifies a slightly more open corner, but would normally still be described as tight and slow speed.ģ and 4 are generally medium speed corners, with 3 being slightly on the tighter side and 4 being a bit more open. These instructions simply tell you which direction the corner is going, and how tight or open the corner is.ġ means that the corner is really tight and will need to be taken in a low gear at slow speed. While in Dirt Rally 2.0 it’s delivered in the opposite order – 5 left or 3 right. In WRC 10, the direction comes first, so left 5 or right 3. The most common pace note format that you will hear will be a left or right combined with a number between 1 and 6. Let’s break this down section by section, starting with the basics. ![]()
