Think this is the most impressive motorsport thing I have ever seen. Pistonheads are talking about the fact he hit the limiter in 6th..it was geared for 150mph.
Loeb the best driver in the World..in my book.

He's in wtcc next year, he wanted a shot at f1 but they sed he didn't have enough experience.

Great driver will do well in wtcc I think.

That is impressive and he's a great driver but It's just not as impressive as the guys who used to do it when it was gravel and mud. And watching their videos they just look more committed than leob does at parts. Don't get my wrong like I'd be pooing driving along their to. It just seemed like he could have gone quicker and was probably thinking about that mitsubuishi that crashed last year off the edge. That was a massive crash.

Not bad, but not as good as the old gravel days. If he was serious about F1 he'd have to go via the GT/Le Man series, but so long as Redbull are paying the $$$'s he wont mind.
