My first car was a ford escort mexico so of course I found about Ari. What a great reminder of his driving. And the funny thing is I used to watch those last few seconds of this video over and over laughing at how the hell he made it through the gates, doesn't the co-driver say 'good god' or something? :-)
thanks a lot for this comprehensive video, we admire ari vatanen he is an immortalized institution,i have compared his rally videos with the newer generation rally and i believe his driving and blinding speed is beyond compare!
your a fool why was group b banned for. cars race today that can more than match group b . its called a hill climb seal or dirt we still run them in New Zealand and why to drivers form around the world come to NZ to race and hill climb, street race ? the PC dicks are too busy with banning smokers .
Μπράβο,φίλε μου!Από τα καλύτερα,που έχω διαβάσει εδώ μέσα.Τότε ήταν ο άνθρωπος με τη μηχανή και το δρόμο.Δεν υπήρχαν ηλεκτρονικά κυκλώματα-μυαλά-χέρια.Μόνο μέταλλα,μυαλά και χέρια!Ακόμα κι αν δε μπορείς να το γράψεις στα αγγλικά,το καταλάβαμε εμείς οι Έλληνες ;)
dommage que le rally d aujourd hui c est plus de la glisse comme avant et le wrc c est nul sa fait un salle bruit et sa tien tro tro bien la route donc y a meme pas un peu de spectacle je prefere les kit car au moin sa miaul bien
wow quite agree...I guess its quite hard to make any classments...so I guess Vatanen is the most impressive one, Loeb the Best one, and Juha Kankkunen maybe one of the best...quite hard to chose but almost agree your choices;;;bye...
Vatanen has been my favorite driver since early 80's when i was just a little boy and watching small local finnish rally called "itä ralli", Vatanen won that race with Opel Manta, if i remember correctly.
How cool! Watching this I kept thinking of the in car footage from the Rothschild Opel. Oh....Dear God! The best ending,what I was hoping for. Great editing too, ha ha, Crashtest Dummies!Thanks for posting
Videos like this are what make Youtube worth while. Well done Josti88 a quality video that you deserve credit for. Its awesome being able to watch someone my uncle always tells me about :-) Rallying rules
No serious, Ari is an exceptional driver. He was on a rush in the mid-eightees, but his unfortunant accident in '85 made him a different driver (not as a person). Of course, you can't ignore his wins in Dakar and Pike's Peak. I remember his Neste Rally Finland guest appearance in 2003. That was the good old Vatanen again.
Actually, the scene were he moves his thumb up is Vatanen in the 405, but you're right. Some 405 footage would have been good, but you have to make choises. His prime career was before 1986, so that was my main focus in this video.
Great Video !!! Best rally driver ever. He had a terrible accident with his Peugeot 205 T16 in Cordoba, Argentina, as it's seen in one of the pictures. I remember I was waiting to see him just few milles after the accident.
I saw it a lomg time ago with the song of crash test dummies but there is no longer sound. Very nice job.
