Non English speakers - can you help?
I love watching the onboards on WRC+. But except for the English speaking co-drivers I cannot understand a thing.
Would anybody with non English speaking skills care to make a list of the common phrases co-drivers might use so when watching you can at least understand whether they are calling a '2 left don't cut'?
Something like Ingrassia often says xxxxx and that means yyyyy.

The problem is Ingrassia / Ogier have the most complex and thorough pacenote system, it is not as easy to understand as left 4 or right 5 Even for French speakers, it takes a lot of concentration to understand the precise meaning of the pacenotes.
Here is a little transcript I did a while ago :

There was some Finnish pacenotes dictionary on the net from Timo Rautiainen. Maybe someone has a link?

I can remember a topic about his before, where typical notes from different languages was discussed. Don't know where it is though.

Maybe some in the topic "Nose end first" by Lundefaret. Remember it was some french pace notes mentioned and translated there.

I think that it's due to generally high-speed and non-rhythmic character of Czech stages where You often need to brake hard from very hi-speed even let's say a corner before because otherwise You would not make the following. Polish drivers uses it a lot as well - in their case it's hamowanie [khah-moh-wah-gnyeh]

Just focus on 27. Full focus. No new manufacturers will come before then, and no new ones will come if clear new regs aren't settled for 2027 by the end of the year (latest first few months on 2025)....
