A co-driver’s job is very demanding and often does not receive the recognition it deserves because the truth is that the driver “only” has to drive.
On these pages we introduce a few of the many co-drivers of Jouni Arolainen. Often at the start of the career the driver needs a good driving instructor and mental support more than an experienced top quality co-driver. For this reason many of Jouni Arolainen's co-drivers have been successful drivers, who have achieved a lot in their careers such as Jouko Puhakka and Jarkko Miettinen.
A great example of driving instructions is an in-car compilation of Seppo Kopra instructing Arolainen during a blind rally. This video, Seppo Kopra’s instructions to B-junior, can be found from the videos page. From the videos page you will also find 2008 Arctic Rally in-car clip from Aittajärvi special stage, where Puhakka gives driving instructions amongst the pacenotes.
