Again, critical to the diver's performance.

Indeed, but I think the sidecar passenger is more vital - having seen one trying to corner after the passenger came off...
A ralley car without the navigator will be slower, but probably only by 10% or so.

Sadly I've not found my shots of the sidecar rolling, I think they'd fit for today's theme.

I assume a navigator was present.   This the only rally stage I have attended and the only frame from the film I have so far scanned. It was a bit wet that day. The car is heading for a right hand turn, either into a bridge or ford, can't remember. I've no idea if they made it, I was just watching cars coming down the straight toward the speed camera.

The chances of me taking a photo of, let alone going in an underpass today are slimmer than a slim thing. Here's an old one

When in London last week, we will have walked passed that sign and used that exit several times. We were staying in the IBIS across the road.

Yes it is opposite the Whitechapel Gallery, no one mistook me for a revolutionary though.

It is probably Grade2 listed now.

There should be an emoji for the fingers to lips kiss in appreciation. Cracking shot.
