You got to admire Block in a way... It's an achievement of sorts to crash so much in so many different kinds of motor sports. I think he have enough crashes to make a whole DVD compilation.
Well, you already got some good alternatives; TH-cam & MotorsTV MotorsTV are possibly broadcasting in the States, but the free option is youtube, as mentioned ;)
actually, she has been a co-driver for rally racing and eventually became a course side reporter and now a commentator..she actually knows a lot about rally than you do..
I totally agree!!!! at least the bikes have Supercross Des Nations! Where contrys compete against each other! But how the hell can u have a "WORLD" Championship that only races in the USA! Us here in South Africa have some brilliant drivers in all forms of motorsport and we are currently building a Rallycross track in Pretoria!! We are willing to try take on some of the big racers from the world! This has the potential to be absolutely epic!!!!!
Gronholm comes from WRC, twice world rally champion, who competed against guys like Carlos Sainz, Richard Burns, Colin McRae and Seb Loeb himself among others, he has no match here. Marcus champion! ;)
I think the reason why they don't have dirt, mud, or gravel is because they have other races that utilize the same area that the GRC guys are using. It would be a pain to clean that stuff up. If only they could use a different part of the track, maybe the infield portion of the track where they could use dirt, mud, or gravel.
I believe it came from the Indy 500, where the cars were scored with their numbers shown on a pole, and the fastest qualifier would be on top of the pole, hence pole position.
There is no such thing as respect in rallycross. When you drive 550hp 4wd in partially wet and partially REALLY dry track, side by side full throttle, you make mistakes. In 0.01 seconds your car may go right when even when you want to go left. This is really common when you brake into corner. I can assure you that toomas did not mean to crash out pastrana
Toomas Topi Heikkinen is RIDICULOUS, what he did to TRAVIS PASTRANA 199 was really LOW TOOMAS U NEED TO LEARN TO RESPECT THE LEGENDS TRAVIS PASTRANA 199 THE BEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I can see you do not know how 4wd car handles. On wet surface you have to whip the car sideways with either e-brake or normal brakes, followed with stepping on gas. Otherwise car pushes straight forward. Now because pastrana was door to door with toomas, toomas couldnt oversteer the car. On situation like this, you can either just go forward as long as you get rid of a car on your side. Or just fully stop your car, which is obviously not an option.
Daaayammm block. what the heck did you think would happen pushin that much thottle on water? should of braked and tried coast through that wet part for half second loss maybe. dang it
Block crashed alone, on the other hand look at 1.04.50 how gronholm is being push and even there he could control his car on a turn. That small things make him a world class driver. Nothing against ken block, I knew him, in cordoba, argentina,during the Argentina Rally, and he is a great guy, I just simple say that is really far of being the world´s best driver.
I love KB but I wish Mirra would win. Foust and Deegan are both awesome and Pastrana is an all time fav. This is the best sport ever right now. So glad I got an STi again....road trip 2013 GRC
If you are Commentating for an American audience, you have to speak like an american. Americans pronounce things wrong unfortunately. Tomato = Toematoe, Hyundai = Hunday. >.
Marcus will show ya americans how to drive a rally car. (; Would be great if he would take a part of rally america. Definitely he would win there also! Wonder when Mikko Hirvonen or Jari-Matti Latvala would make a starring quest appearance in GRC! Scandinavia FTW!
Why is a woman who knows absolutely nothing about this sport commentating? And the guy said they almost tailgated the subaru lol its rear-ended not tailgated.
Mr "Practice" Block as he is known here in South Africa is ridiculous! Its nice tosee the end product of his videos but when he has being put up against the big boys in WRC and GRC, i dont think he has that "racers edge" Show/Stunt Driver YES, Racing Driver NO! Period!
well i definitely wasnt trying to say he's the next Mcrae, but keeping pace with gronholm like that, and even gaining in some areas is no small feat either. He still has potential, just needs to work the kinks out of his mental game i think, and stay calm when the pressure is on.

I love British commentators. They seem to know more about what's going on, a better knowledge and just sound better in general.
Back when Rallycross was popular in America.
Does anyone know what channel the Belgian Formula 1 Grand Prix will be on?
how is this rallycross?
No I live in America but the only person from the ERC that is the X Games is Liam Doran
Well, you already got some good alternatives; TH-cam & MotorsTV
MotorsTV are possibly broadcasting in the States, but the free option is youtube, as mentioned ;)
well, this just demonstrates that a truly legit wrc driver will always have more experience in any type of circumstance
actually, she has been a co-driver for rally racing and eventually became a course side reporter and now a commentator..she actually knows a lot about rally than you do..
I've been a fan of rally and hillclimb for many many years, and I may have to watch a few more of these!
I totally agree!!!! at least the bikes have Supercross Des Nations! Where contrys compete against each other! But how the hell can u have a "WORLD" Championship that only races in the USA!

there is a term used in rallying when you crash the car when you pass the ability to which you can drive and that is called ken blocking it
More Global Rallycross Championship Action!
I would watch
European Rallycross but i don't have the channel cause i'm in America
Kust cos he stalled on the line doesn't mean something's broken. What is this guy on?
Gronholm comes from WRC, twice world rally champion, who competed against guys like Carlos Sainz, Richard Burns, Colin McRae and Seb Loeb himself among others, he has no match here.
Marcus champion! ;)
These are the nicest cars, I've always wanted a car built to race
SWEETBUTTER!!! Thanks WRCforeva, you are the man!
very great championship, i like if you can load all the championship season step by steap
THANK YOU :)
This is just a better form of racing for me. The only problem I see is there aren't enough drivers!
Marcus wiped the floor with them
Grönholm will be there too, so I won't be that sure about Loeb's success. It will be great to see the legends again race against each other.
Shes new to commentating I believe (so that may be why it doesn't sound like it) but I know for a fact she's been in rally for a long time.
awesome! i hope you upload all rounds of GRC ;) great stuff! Many Thanks!
I thought the terms to call it rallycross, the tracks had to have a gravel section. Or is that just european rallycross?
Loeb is in X Games 18 I guarantee he is going to win Gold in one of the rallycross events
I think the reason why they don't have dirt, mud, or gravel is because they have other races that utilize the same area that the GRC guys are using. It would be a pain to clean that stuff up. If only they could use a different part of the track, maybe the infield portion of the track where they could use dirt, mud, or gravel.
The Dodge Dart 😍😍😍 29:15
Grumpy Bear: God damn it! 26:13
First 2 go thru' right ?
That was pretty sick. Not as great as foreign but SOO much better than nascar.
and Marcus kicked their asses and will always do, with one hand!!
ken block doing what he does best
I'm not convinced the commentators know anything about auto racing
Кен Блок шоумен а не гонщик !!!
if u r new to this,the number on the cars is not big enough. and only 6 laps???..thats gay
ken blocks car is genuinely brilliant it transforms to whatever discipline kens racing its amazing
all in a matter of minutes
put more from GRC when available!
The British guy has been commentating WRC for a very long time. Not convinced you know squat =)
True. Toby Moody is an expert on MotoGP, but not this kind of racing.
ma koji pastrana, mirra i ekipa, gronholm and europe, all the way baby!! :D
I believe it came from the Indy 500, where the cars were scored with their numbers shown on a pole, and the fastest qualifier would be on top of the pole, hence pole position.
never said i did lol and considering they don't make cars anymore i was surprised
I mean the subarus i talked about never got close to a battle all of them maybe had a problem.
I agree, there was only one real rally driver on tha track
look at his performance on WRC, ridiculous, horrible horrible.... if that is the best driver what is Loeb?
KEN BLOCK CAN´T DEAL WITH HIS EMOTIONS
Block never seems to know when it's time to push and when he should keep calm to stay on the propper driving lane
useing your breaks is a comon driving techniqe!?!? MIND BLOWN. thankyou knowledgeable female commentator.
uhhh Jen Horsey has been around Rally for quite a long time....and Toby Moody is British, so hence the different vocabulary

I miss the 'global' in here
He was keeping up with Gronholm, who went on to win the whole event.
Toomas Topi Heikkinen is RIDICULOUS, what he did to TRAVIS PASTRANA 199 was really LOW
TOOMAS U NEED TO LEARN TO RESPECT THE LEGENDS
TRAVIS PASTRANA 199 THE BEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
why does Sverre always fail?!
ha hubinette is the man. Celebrating a 1st place in a heat race like he just won le mans.
Thanks for uploading these races mate. Greatly appreciate it!
What he gets is a really good car!
GRC has improved in 2013 but still lot of work to do, red flags, that horrible invention of the penalty box etc...
This is actually pretty damn awesome with someone from the UK speaking. It increases the awesome :D
IKR!!!! they're just pointing out the obvious
I can see you do not know how 4wd car handles. On wet surface you have to whip the car sideways with either e-brake or normal brakes, followed with stepping on gas.

Can block Finish a race without crashing once?? I love watching the guy but god damn he can't do rally, he should stick to hooning
He is actually Finnish
i don't like watching videos when i don't know the videos is about
Wow! hope you put more of these up as well! I will be sending you a christmas present now for all these vids :D
Tanner is at least going to win a couple races
Daaayammm block. what the heck did you think would happen pushin that much thottle on water? should of braked and tried coast through that wet part for half second loss maybe. dang it

great job
Be proud to do a big jump, to ... make shit the next corner !!!
the guy's british yet he's pronouncing hyundai hunday :S
Excellent upload thanks....
As tragic as it is, I'm almost getting used to Travis Pastrana getting punted off of the track by someone.
Is it normal for the cars to spit fire like that?
And where’s the shifter?
yes most racecars do spit flames
and the shifter is that lever right next to the steering wheel, you can see it in marcus' car at 15:48
ruuuuuuruuuuurrrrr schuuuureddd BOOOMMMMM!!!!
thanks
Montoya has never been F1 Champion. And This is not rallycross :)
Why did it have to be Moody!
dont try to win from the rally gods ...gronholm..loeb..etc etc
Montoya - F1 champion? Really? Really? They didn't make that mistake did they?
why would anybody sponsor Buck Lasek, it seems like he comes in last in every WRC race
I love KB but I wish Mirra would win. Foust and Deegan are both awesome and Pastrana is an all time fav. This is the best sport ever right now. So glad I got an STi again....road trip 2013 GRC
If you are Commentating for an American audience, you have to speak like an american. Americans pronounce things wrong unfortunately. Tomato = Toematoe, Hyundai = Hunday. >.
is it me or does ken block crash a lot?!
So how many Jet Dryers you crashed into? Juan.......
no. this is rallycross made U.S.A.
look at the European Championship.
I didn't really see the whole rally CROSS part... All tarmac plus some puddles..
jump looks dangerous :X
Loving it better than NASCAR turn left what's the next corner again?
Marcus will show ya americans how to drive a rally car. (; Would be great if he would take a part of rally america. Definitely he would win there also! Wonder when Mikko Hirvonen or Jari-Matti Latvala would make a starring quest appearance in GRC! Scandinavia FTW!

So bad ass I don't even know what to say
back when US rallycross was more then just Ford, VW, and Subaru
if i had a dollar for every time they said, "Discount Tire, AMERICA'S Tire hairpin," i could buy myself a set of tires
Mr "Practice" Block as he is known here in South Africa is ridiculous! Its nice tosee the end product of his videos but when he has being put up against the big boys in WRC and GRC, i dont think he has that "racers edge" Show/Stunt Driver YES, Racing Driver NO! Period!
the rear ducts on the subarus, are those for rear-mounted radiuators, or brake/cabin cooling?
maybe nascar just isn't for everyone? I LOVE Rallycross, Nascar, the cars are awesome....here, the races are awesome!
well i definitely wasnt trying to say he's the next Mcrae, but keeping pace with gronholm like that, and even gaining in some areas is no small feat either. He still has potential, just needs to work the kinks out of his mental game i think, and stay calm when the pressure is on.
