When you think of team sports, rallying is not one that might immediately spring to mind. It's the driver who most often gets the glory while the man sat in the passenger seat is all too often left in the shadows.
But a short time spent with Gareth Roberts will soon dispel any myths that the co-driver is just there to make up the numbers. 23 year old Gareth, from Carmarthen, has only been in the sport for 8 years but has already established himself as one of Wales's leading young co-drivers while he and his 21 year old driver, Craig Breen from Waterford in Ireland are already making their mark on the World Rallying scene. And with half a million Euros in the bank to fund their 2012 season things are looking rosy for the young duo.
