Default Nice RSR action.

Worth watching just for the sound (is that an oxy moron?).

Hillclimbing in Europe. It's a big deal over there. Plenty of dedicated and fast cars.
Watch that clip via Youtube and then check out some of the other videos once it ends.

Actually his blips seem 'soft' but I can't hear any detrimental effects of non rev matching.

As for his hands, I think they're fine. This 'set in stone' obsequiousness to keeping the hands in the '10mins to 2pm' position is really unjustified in many forms of motorsport. Hell, I've seen in car footage of Senna in his Lotus shuffle steering. Never seen any film of any driver crashing due to shuffle steering.

Thats a popular hillclimb. I remember watching vids of that same hill with cars that looked like prototype cars/Radicals tearing up that hill.
