He's driving a "Fiesta" in this one, pointless, but impressive.
New tyres please !
That is the coolest video i've seen in a long time...
Awesome!!
Wow - even a driveshaft cam - car geek porn.
See everyone must know 4WD is the best drivetrain evaaaar after that.
2nd bend and he crashes... then afew later he hits a cone. On every shot theres skid marks showing hes tried once already, inc an obvious big mistake
at 4:08 where he clearly wiped the tyres out!
As always, its fast, scripted, heavily edited and not precise enough for true autocross/autotest.
Always a good watch though.

And if they were to design a rally stage like that he might actually do better
Let's be honest...it's not really a Fiesta is it - 650bhp, 0-60 in 1.2s...
Looks impressive, but I'd like to see how his time for the circuit would compare to someone like Sebastien Loeb.

realistically though-nobody gets that good without making mistakes now and then.
And atleast now we know its pretty much real and hasn't been done a million times....
People complained before that it was all too well rehearsed. Then they complain that he makes mistakes.
Come on, he's not God, he's a shoe salesman! 
He's also, however you look at it, very very talented behind the wheel.
I've been a passenger a couple of times with professional drivers and besides being very entertaining it really only served to remind me that I
am not a driving god - not yet anyway 
I could have done that much better than he did - well, that bit where he hit the wall anyway.
Drives like me when i go for a paper
I bet Tiff would give him a run for his money
even if it's scripted/reheased etc etc.........you'll still watch it many times.....but a fair comment about putting him against other
skilled drivers. I'm not sure about Tiff though - he's skilled and good at hooning but is he this precise enough?

Here's a thought....
What about a motorsport triathlon event?
Take a selection of the top F1, WRC and MotoGP drivers/riders and run a multi-discipline event of all 3 forms of motorsport.
