Default Petter Solberg video

I don't know if this is a repost but I came across it. It's a few years old.

If you didn't film it yourself, then it's 99.9% probable that it's a repost.


That being said, that man can drive. I hope he opens a school when he retires. Count me in

Definately uses the e-brake to force the car to oversteer! He's a rally drive... That is their "thing" :-)

I think the e-brake is actually mounted up near the steering wheel in the WRC car so he doesn't have to reach down during a turn to help whipping the arse around. THAT sounds like fun!!
