why in rally races there is a guy on a passenger seat explaining where to drive?

It’s not altogether different from how we used to drive before integrated maps in our cars, nav units, etc. The passenger’s title is literally navigator. I can remember road trips with a truckers atlas or fold out maps that you had to buy at the gas station of whatever new town you were in.
If you’ve ever driven through an unfamiliar place and maybe you told your passenger “tell me when to turn” and then they say things like “take a left at the next light”.
As a driver, it helps you focus on the driving and trust somebody else for the navigating.
Rally racing is like that, except times 1,000
