Amazing on board with Robert Kubica (Rally)
I'm sure some of you will have seen this already but worth a watch for anyone who hasn't.

He damaged one of his spotlights which then started flipping backwards and dazzling him. He then went off the road narrowly missing a farmhouse or
something and then had to drive in parts without his full headlights, I think due to glare from the fog!
Despite all this, he still managed to gain some 30 sec on this last stage and win the whole rally.
This was at Janner Rally, Austria, first round of the ERC in which RK participated for testing a new car before Monte Carlo Rally. So it was a new
car, new rally, new co-driver and first time on studded tyres.
That guy must have nerves of steel. I was fully clenched (teeth and buttocks) just watching the video!

Watching a good rally driver is almost humbling, their brains just work on a different level to the rest of us.
The stray spotlight must have been almost blinding at points
