^^^^ yeap. The only track I've EVER been on in my car. The scariest cornet (Everest type climb) in the motorsport world, Eau Rouge.

That's a great find!
Even after watching the video I still can't imagine what that must feel like from behind the wheel! .......imagine if you got oversteer at that speed, just like Alonso!

There reaction times must be super human!
The cars can run upside down at 70MPH because of the downforce they create! Mad!

That's pretty cool.

Whilst watching Moto GP yesterday a similar thought occurred.
The mega rapid GP bikes were lapping Silverstone in over 2 minutes.
What's Vettel and Hamilton type lap times about 90 seconds or so...
Wings/Slicks and downforce I suppose. Enormous gonads too I guess.

I've seen this vid before and yes the speed that an F1 car can carry not only through eau rouge but on any other circuit is mighty impressive, but it is being compared to public trackday footage so one would hope there would be a significant difference between an F1 car and in this case a Focus ST amongst other things...  :wink:
