Novikov Almost Flips Out During WRC Finland!


When he crested a hill during a stage of WRC Rally in Finland, Evgeny Novikov’s lead foot nearly caused his Citroen C4 to pull a burly back flip. Yikes! The in-car footage actually reminds me of the view from the cockpit of my Dad’s old Piper during takeoff. First, the nose comes up, and then it’s  nothing but sky. As the announcer—in my opinion, hysterically—points out, this near-miss “indicates why not every jump should be taken flat-out.” That’s some classic British understatement for you.

Doesn’t the footage almost look sped up?


I’m a sucker for in-car video in general, but Scott Moran’s trip up Scotland’s Doune Hill is just insane. He managed to get his McLaren-powered Gould GR61X to the summit in just 35.62 seconds—a new record!—and the way he handles the serpentine course is one hell of a thing to behold. Doesn’t the footage almost look sped up? Bravo, Mr. Moran!
