and a Crazy Finn behind the wheel...thats how we drive the normal shopping trips over here.
Have tried a sliding with a Big Rig myself.... over here it´s a mandatory course to take if you want a CDL and it´s fun !
But Vatanen was not even close to being one of the craziest here´s another one in Pikes Peak and a woman to boot...
Here´s some other Audi Videos to boot..yes I´m biased to Audis for some reason

And lets not Forget Hannu Mikkola , Markku Alen or Late Great Henri Toivonen whose father denied him roadracing as too dangerous.. his fathers team-mate Hans Laine died in Nürnburgring 1970 in the Adac-Rennen in a Porsche 908.
At the Tender age of 24 Henri Drove with all his heart, hard, heroically and dangereously..and lived the life to the fullest. It´s been said that had he´d been a Football player in Britain he´d made the headlines every day... R.I.P. Henri you´re still missed.
and Yes Racing is insane when you want to win but so rewarding when it finally happens.

Drove up there about a year ago, gets kinda scary the closer you to the top. We did it slow and sure and that was enough for me. These guys have NO fear!!!!!
