My guess is that there is a turn to the right that is level 50 degrees from straight followed by a level turn to the left and then going up to a crest followed by an immediate turn to the right 30 degrees from straight. Don't forget "slippy."

The thing that throws me off is the fact that by the time the driver's taking one turn, the co-driver is reading off the next two turns. Once I think I've got it figured out, they go and do something that contradicts it all. Enlish has got to be one of the best languages to co-drive with. We can just say "left" the Spanish speakers have to say "izquierda." They have to say so many more words/syllables to equal us. Gives you a new respect for Carlos Sainz and his co-driver.
