Default Patrese and wife at Jerez

Amusing in-car vid of Riccardo Patrese showing Jerez to his wife in a Civic Type-R.

You could tell she had an orgasm. Or two.

Wasn't she asking him why he couldn't go any faster?

Not sure about the full translation, but some of those words wouldn't make it onto family tv here in the states. I think if I were driving, I would have asked her to please shut up - that had to be annoying.

On a serious note, it's always fun to watch drivers at that level work the controls. He never looks like he's working hard and his touch on the wheel remains the same throughout. I'm sure that car was just flying around the track, but you'd never know it by watching him work.

You've never pushed a wheelbarrow, have you?

She telling "enough" "enough". I'm not lying. F$%* you. I'm leaving you when I get out.

That's all I can make out.

Great sense of humor. I love the genuine laughter.

Check out his hands on the wheel. Sunday driving.
