Back up co driver, seat fitting for a test day probably, also does the gravel notes if I'm not wrong?

[PLuto]

This is nothing special. Drivers usually use also spare codrivers during testing.

[TypeR]

Yes.. but spare co-drivers don't need special seat fitting for 100kms + extra post on social media.. You sit in the car, maybe put some cushions.. do the test and good night

Why would he change Martijn? Martijn was posting few days ago that he is looking forward to Monte.

Maybe you will be surprised, but some codrivers "only for test" has their own seats...

Yea okay, I understand that they have to be locked in there and seat has to match + he seems taller/bigger also than Wydaeghe..

Rally Ireland, pending funding, will be hosted in 3 different locations from 2025 to 2027 in Waterford, Tralee & Limerick respectively.

Fingers crossed the Irish Government allocates the required cash.

Well, I am a bit heavier than Ott and I have sat in his seat in recce car to check some sensor performance.. I can tell you that sometimes the right seat is very much needed.. I managed to sit in, but I almost needed crane to get out from the car, luckily I am doing a lot of cross-country skiing and my hands are strong... so, by using the support of safety cage tubes on top of drivers head, I was able to escape from the seat without external help :P
