The worst rally driver you've ever seen
 
The worst rally driver you've ever seen


Fast cars and excellent driving skills might be the easy answers when asking how to succeed in rally racing, but after watching this video, a good teammate is obviously an important aspect of this sport, too. During the 2013 Rally of Coimbatore in India, driver Samir Thapar and his co-driver, Vivek Ponnusamy, didn't seem to be on the same page as the two attempted to navigate the course in their Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution.

We'd probably hear drastically different stories if we talked to Thapar and Ponnusamy about this particular event, but you know things are bad when "stay on road" and "turn the wheel" are commands given by the co-driver. As it turned out, though, it seems like the Ponnusamy was justified in his concerns to take care of the racecar. Race results show that despite winning three of the seven stages, this team ultimately ended the race with a DNF.

That was annoying as hell, where was the funny part?:uh:

That driver sucks. Most of the time those guys are going so fast the co-driver only has enough time to say sharp left, medium right, slight right, etc. This guy is driving so horrible the co-driver has time to berate him lol.

At the end of the video
Samir Thapar: "Shaddap, don't tell me how to drive."

:D:p
