Is it possible to use a term "rally driver" to describe a Formula One
driver? Thank you all for help.

Dear Kglamow...,

They are different in sense.
the term "rally driver" is a concept used to define the continual
cross-country racing especially with a car designed
for rough terrain driving. While a formular one driver race in a
finely tuned F-1 car (with great speed and performance in a circuit.)
In sum, the conceptual meaning are pretty different (personally I
recommend using them separately).
