Colin was an absolute expert on driving slippery surfaces. The way he balances the car and breaks traction is always a sight to behold, even all these years later.
@@StephenDeTomasi it is true. But before Loeb´s era. He was far away from him. When Colin drove citroen, he was asking Seb quite often, how it possible go that fast

Sullo schermo sono un campione, vivo vicino all'università del rally, questo video è il motivo per cui non corro i rally. Allucinante, assurdo e l'avrò visto 100 volte
In my 56 years as a rally fan, I have never seen in car footage like this. So frightening yet so so impressive, it seems the only way he slows down is buy throwing it so sideways, it does look so unsafe and absolutely on the limit. Seen Colin many times out on the stages, he always looked the quickest but wild.
Its called scandinavian flick Driving style rather turning into corners by using car weight shifting in your favour. Thats why he turns second before corner, and using gas pedal on and of car weight distribution is transfered diferently...in overall yes you are fasfer that way..
@@CroIntr00X Errr, nope. A Scandinavian Flick is when you turn the wrong way before the corner, and in the process of catching the slide you over correct sending the rear of the car into a more dramatic angle into the corner allowing you to get on the power earlier, therefore you can (mostly) be facing the corners exit and accelerate in a straight line. Colin is turning into the corner early, at such a speed that by the time he gets to the apex (where other drivers would still be controlling the slide) he's done with the corner and is accelerating flat out in a straight line. Now, approaching some corners I will agree that it looks like a Scandinavian Flick, but he's using the friction created by sliding the car sideways to get it slowed down enough to make the corner. That is when you see him doing three or more dramatic flicks from left to right, if he didn't do that (washing off speed) the cars braking would not be sufficient to slow him down. But when all is said and done, does it matter, spectacular is an understatement when it comes to Colin McRae. RIP Colin McRae, and Ken Block, two absolute legendary entertainers and masters of car control - among many, many others taken to soon!
I knew Colin when he drove for Vauxhall in a Nova in his early career. His father still drove at that point in a sierra Cosworth. I worked in Motorsport PR for Vauxhall at that time. We used to call him Colin McShed because he always wrote his car off at each rally!! A really nice guy who was hugely talented. How sad and ironic to die in a helicopter and not at 90mph in the mud of a forest!! I would have loved to see him world champion many more times.
It's incredible how far ahead of the car he is! His steering inputs feel like they're hours ahead of the turns and he uses ALL of the width of the course if it's not there he just finds it out in space somewhere! So incredible! There may never be another like him! RIP
4:59-6:30 He is going too fast for these corners. He still makes them perfectly. The bond between man and machine here...they have became one, a truly great sporting clip here.
And they say the F1 drivers are the best drivers in the world.... try this Sebastian Vettel! 200 KPH on a gravel road... it takes more than talent... it take massive balls!!
Colin was extremely quick when he tested an F1 car, similar pace to the regular test drivers within a couple of laps. He was by far the most spectacular Rally driver I ever had the pleasure to watch from the road side from his early Nova days, Sierra 2.8 V6 4x4 then the Cosworths, before the glory days of Subaru and beyond. RIP big man
I have been driving rally for 20 years in Sweden and Finland, but I can newer get enough of this soo impressiv/fanyastic film, thanks! Largest Respect! 😀👍🏁

It's the gear changes that stand out to me. Dropping a single gear when the instinct is to drop two. Then short shifting on the way out to keep the same level of grip. Every in car video is a masterclass in car control.
Condivido pienamente Io ho avuto la fortuna di vederlo in azione + volte sia al Sanremo nelle prove su asfalto liguri e al Montecarlo sulla neve...i 9 titoli di Loeb non valgono la simpatia e la classe del RE dei Rallye McRae!!!
Eh ok ok… Era bello da vedere perché era un pazzo criminale (nel senso buono del motorsport). Era l'azzardo allo stato puro e ogni tappa era "LA TAPPA DELLA VITA". Poteva aprire uno sfasciacarrozze una volta ritirato. I 9 titoli di Loeb valgono eccome… Sai lui quando correva invece era prudente… :D
What can you say? Pure rally man, pretty fast, technical, strategic, with great passion ... his name will be eternally synonymous with the core concept of the rally sport spirit! He is always on my mind when I see a blue Impreza or a Focus RS!! Rest in peace Colin!
I agree. I love driving and am blessed to have an inexplicable instinct to do the right thing but this video opened my eyes to something I have never imagined before. He was not driving. He was flying by the seat of his pants. A touch to the aileron here, a touch to the rudder there, a touch, a dab, touch touch touch then for a few moment sanity returns as he changes gears and then it's back to flying again.
Sometimes you think you might be a good driver, might even entertain dreams of Rally someday, then you watch a video like this.....good grief! It’s like managing one long accident.
To me it's a proof that video game driving can be reality, you just need to be really really really really really really really good at driving. It's fun to achieve this level at games, but to do it actually irl, they are so far off that you can't compare them. Basics are the same but other invokes such feelings and requires such skill that one can only admire these warriors. Home rally driver salutes one of the kings o/
Not least the control of the mind ... whilst us mere mortals would be thinking 'wow, I nearly crashed there', Colin is half a mile and four corners further on.
As real as rally games may be they are not even close to being the same. In real life every single stone, stick, pothole etc could kill you instantly and none of that transfers into any game.
I always think F1 and wrc requires Such a powerful brain in terms of raw data processing at speed. So much visual information coming at you at once. Honestly more so difficult in wrc because you are relying on co driver notes and have to give brain power to processing those as you drive. Rip Colin.
some pro pilots don't have their driving license it's possible but it's more in motorbike I think, they have car driving license but not bike because they find too dangerous to drive on the open road :)
There will be others Champions. There will not be another Colin McRae. Ciao fenomeno sono fiero di averti visto dal vivo e ricordo con piacere quelle due chiacchere al riordino di Montalcino nel Sanremo 1996 che vincesti senza fare un graffio alla macchina
Impresionante Colin, cómo hacia soplar el turbo compresor de esa "Foca" cuando le metía la 6ta marcha. Un fenómeno...Un fuera de serie. Jamás ví a otro llevar al Focus de esa forma, al límite. Gracias Colin x tantas alegrías.
Ever since i was a little kid,Colin Mcrae was my favorite,and he still is.I doubt that we'll see a driver of Colin's caliber in WRC ever again.Sure,drivers like Loeb,Makinnen,Kankunnen and Ogier might have more championships,but there are many different champions and there is only one Colin Mcrae.Rest in peace,legend.
The drivers you mention are top drivers and maybe are better to win a rally. But no one of them can do what Colin did in this video. I'm completely sure.
Just watched this on my Oculus Quest edge to edge in my vision. Insanely intense. My heart rate was through the roof. Colin was probably around 60 bpm throughout. Man was a machine, a super talented mind meld with the car machine. RIP legend.
Colin era e sarà sempre il migliore Top driver del mondo, la macchina la faceva danzare, Ancora oggi non vedo un pilota migliore di lui, Coraggioso come pochi, anche per questo faceva molti incidenti però spingeva sempre oltre il limite.👑🔝🔝🔝COLIN MCRAE🔝🔝🔝👑
Amazing car control. Opposite lock on nearly every corner. So much more entertaining than rallying today. It all seems a bit clinical and safe now. Colin was a true driving legend with tremendous talent.
That first scandi was unbelievable and I was so lucky to have for testing in the Subaru Legacy with him as I used to be a former rally champion in 1990 in my 6R4 and when Colin drove mine he bought one ! I used to instruct at Prodrive at their private track in Warwickshire FenEnd. Great days indeed .
I have watched rally since i was 8 i am now 27 , so trust me when i say you will never ever see anyone drive with such controlled aggression this man was ALWAYS on the limit he didn't do half measure and he sure as hell didn't to slow . One of the best rally drivers to ever get in a car possibly the greatest ever .
It's funny a young man like you explains that we should trust you... You didn't live through the 80s. You don't remember the 90s. The only true thing in your comment is that Colin was a great driver. There were others though, some were more successful, others were crowd favorites for their driving style... The craziness of the 80s crowd... The flying barely controllable beasts of Audi, Lancia, Peugeot, Ford, Mazda, Toyota... It's good there's at least YT today, cause you young people missed a lot of rallying. It was amazing and of course - we were young then 😉 I really miss the times, where your uncle buys the HF Integrale Evo... In bright yellow. Few years later you get a Cossie.... Cars with race aura around them... When homologation was a thing... Damn, I miss the 80s and 90s...
@@IvoRadev Lancia were some of my favorite manufacturers, gotta love the 037 and the Stratos Lancia before it. Amazing vehicles :0 I wish I was around in the 80s so I could watch greats like Henri Toivonen and his Delta S4..(before his unfortunate crash that ultimately led to the downfall of Group B) and Walter Röhrl. Basically the guys who drove in anger before the advent of ABS and ARBs. Those guys had some serious ability
I feel totally honoured and privileged to have a Subaru rally plaque here in the old 555 logos etc signed by Colin McRea. what a total legend he was . Sadly taken way too early
Chicco Chiggx yeah I watched that flick like 10 times. Watch closely and you can see how he does one first weight transfer just to let the car go straight on the pendulum, so then we can call this move the double scotch flick! Just insane. What about 6:00 high speed turn
yeah a couple of times it was pretty close call but still I admit he had the BALLS to do it , so at least for that alone he was one of the greatest !!!!
I got to go 15 min as a passenger with a top professional rally driver in a Subaru as part of a promo for Rally of Canberra and as someone who used to go kart a bit and has spent some time driving on tracks in race cars and I also have my introductory certificate into Rallying that these guys are absolutely on a different level.. they are thinking so far ahead that they enter turn 1 on this weird line so it let's them exit turn 3 perfectly and the amount of trust they put in that car.. I love racing and going fast and he even asked me 'fast or really fast?" and I told him to go as fast as he possibly could.. and he did!! I was shytting myself and the noise and vibrations from rocks smashing the bash guard under the car plus the backfiring from the exhaust and stink of petrol as we were getting air @ 175 kph in the forest gave me such a sensory overload. one of the top 3 experiences of my life. Next level.
Superb footage. Absolutely superb. My first car was a Mk1.5 Focus. Hard to believe that mine and King Colin's car were the same car on the outside but of course it stopped there lol. Rest in Peace Colin McRae. Still sadly missed
No wonder none of the other drivers (makinen included) could follow his lines!!! They all said it, if you come on the stage behind McRae there no chance of following his line, now we see why!!! The way he dispatched that chicane in 5th gear half way thru 😧 RIP MAC
Incredibile come l'auto risponda immediatamente al pilota e come il pilota segua il suo istinto e il navigatore. Incredibile,tecnica,talento,automobile e soprattutto il navigatore.

Io ho avuto la fortuna di vederlo in azione + volte sia al Sanremo nelle prove su asfalto liguri e al Montecarlo sulla neve...i 9 titoli di Loeb non valgono la simpatia e la classe del RE dei Rallye
McRae!!!
mario marritti Toivonen non era da meno vai tra
Eh ok ok… Era bello da vedere perché era un pazzo criminale (nel senso buono del motorsport). Era l'azzardo allo stato puro e ogni tappa era "LA TAPPA DELLA VITA". Poteva aprire uno sfasciacarrozze una volta ritirato. I 9 titoli di Loeb valgono eccome… Sai lui quando correva invece era prudente… :D
What can you say? Pure rally man, pretty fast, technical, strategic, with great passion ... his name will be eternally synonymous with the core concept of the rally sport spirit! He is always on my mind when I see a blue Impreza or a Focus RS!! Rest in peace Colin!
Best 6 minutes of my life.
Damn 6 minutes? Thats 5 minutes and 42 seconds more than i could have given you
@@DansGlowing I don't know what this is, but if it's a hot girl asking to give me a blowjob, we could figure something out..
I agree. I love driving and am blessed to have an inexplicable instinct to do the right thing but this video opened my eyes to something I have never imagined before. He was not driving. He was flying by the seat of his pants. A touch to the aileron here, a touch to the rudder there, a touch, a dab, touch touch touch then for a few moment sanity returns as he changes gears and then it's back to flying again.
Bless you!
to deth
This is incredible, he's adjusting the car 5 to 6 seconds before entering the corners, he always drove on the edge.
Sometimes you think you might be a good driver, might even entertain dreams of Rally someday, then you watch a video like this.....good grief! It’s like managing one long accident.
To me it's a proof that video game driving can be reality, you just need to be really really really really really really really good at driving. It's fun to achieve this level at games, but to do it actually irl, they are so far off that you can't compare them. Basics are the same but other invokes such feelings and requires such skill that one can only admire these warriors. Home rally driver salutes one of the kings o/
Indeed
Not least the control of the mind ... whilst us mere mortals would be thinking 'wow, I nearly crashed there', Colin is half a mile and four corners further on.
As real as rally games may be they are not even close to being the same.
In real life every single stone, stick, pothole etc could kill you instantly and none of that transfers into any game.
I always think F1 and wrc requires Such a powerful brain in terms of raw data processing at speed. So much visual information coming at you at once. Honestly more so difficult in wrc because you are relying on co driver notes and have to give brain power to processing those as you drive. Rip Colin.
when Samir finally start listen to calls
This should have a thousand likes
You ARE BREAKING THE CAR !
Don't tell me how to drive 😐
Medium left! Medium left, long, Samir!
LISTEN TO ME
Who can dislike this?
Someone without driving license
Nascar fans
some pro pilots don't have their driving license it's possible but it's more in motorbike I think, they have car driving license but not bike because they find too dangerous to drive on the open road :)
I said the same
He is a legend !!
Good joke😂😂
Absolute legend, seems the way he slows down is by putting it sideways and then just going flat out amazing to watch all these years later
R.I.p Collin McRae used to watch him back in the day on wrc the guy was a beast one of the best drivers ever
There will be others Champions.
There will not be another Colin McRae.
Ciao fenomeno sono fiero di averti visto dal vivo e ricordo con piacere quelle due chiacchere al riordino di Montalcino nel Sanremo 1996 che vincesti senza fare un graffio alla macchina
It’s like watching Picasso painting a masterpiece.
Much better than that
Picasso had worst paintings ever

Woaw. RIP Colin. Man, you had a serious pair of... the phuuuck! That one was really fast and off limits. Masterpiece!
Impresionante Colin, cómo hacia soplar el turbo compresor de esa "Foca" cuando le metía la 6ta marcha. Un fenómeno...Un fuera de serie. Jamás ví a otro llevar al Focus de esa forma, al límite. Gracias Colin x tantas alegrías.
También era mi primo
If in Doubt, Flat Out ... forever Colin
The longest accident recovery in history. Nice save!
Che Grande!!! Uno dei Migliori.... Grazie per tutto lo spettacolo!!!
His driving skills were unreal!!!! The man had a gift! Greatest rally driver
Greatest driver of any motor sport
Ever since i was a little kid,Colin Mcrae was my favorite,and he still is.I doubt that we'll see a driver of Colin's caliber in WRC ever again.Sure,drivers like Loeb,Makinnen,Kankunnen and Ogier might have more championships,but there are many different champions and there is only one Colin Mcrae.Rest in peace,legend.
hillclimbracingfan true that !
You forgot Walter Röhrl he is a Legend, too.
Kankunnen was very fast too
The drivers you mention are top drivers and maybe are better to win a rally. But no one of them can do what Colin did in this video. I'm completely sure.
Don't forget Markku Alén(Maximum Attack)
One of the best definetly.
5:01 omfg !!!!
this may the essence of; "if in doubt, flat out"
Just watched this on my Oculus Quest edge to edge in my vision. Insanely intense. My heart rate was through the roof. Colin was probably around 60 bpm throughout. Man was a machine, a super talented mind meld with the car machine. RIP legend.
Colin era e sarà sempre il migliore Top driver del mondo, la macchina la faceva danzare, Ancora oggi non vedo un pilota migliore di lui, Coraggioso come pochi, anche per questo faceva molti incidenti però spingeva sempre oltre il limite.👑🔝🔝🔝COLIN MCRAE🔝🔝🔝👑
Absolute masterclass in rally driving...legend rip
Amazing car control. Opposite lock on nearly every corner. So much more entertaining than rallying today. It all seems a bit clinical and safe now. Colin was a true driving legend with tremendous talent.
That first scandi was unbelievable and I was so lucky to have for testing in the Subaru Legacy with him as I used to be a former rally champion in 1990 in my 6R4 and when Colin drove mine he bought one ! I used to instruct at Prodrive at their private track in Warwickshire FenEnd. Great days indeed .
Colin still lives in our hearts
That.. was by far the most impressive driving I have ever seen..
I have watched rally since i was 8 i am now 27 , so trust me when i say you will never ever see anyone drive with such controlled aggression this man was ALWAYS on the limit he didn't do half measure and he sure as hell didn't to slow .
One of the best rally drivers to ever get in a car possibly the greatest ever .
It's funny a young man like you explains that we should trust you... You didn't live through the 80s. You don't remember the 90s. The only true thing in your comment is that Colin was a great driver. There were others though, some were more successful, others were crowd favorites for their driving style... The craziness of the 80s crowd... The flying barely controllable beasts of Audi, Lancia, Peugeot, Ford, Mazda, Toyota... It's good there's at least YT today, cause you young people missed a lot of rallying. It was amazing and of course - we were young then 😉 I really miss the times, where your uncle buys the HF Integrale Evo... In bright yellow. Few years later you get a Cossie.... Cars with race aura around them... When homologation was a thing... Damn, I miss the 80s and 90s...
SAME HERE Im 28, 92', used to watch em when I was like 7-8-9, best years of my life xD
He definitely didn’t do half measures . Flat out or crash out. Pure talent . I got the pleasure of seeing him rally in Wales . Simply awesome
@@IvoRadev Lancia were some of my favorite manufacturers, gotta love the 037 and the Stratos Lancia before it. Amazing vehicles :0 I wish I was around in the 80s so I could watch greats like Henri Toivonen and his Delta S4..(before his unfortunate crash that ultimately led to the downfall of Group B) and Walter Röhrl. Basically the guys who drove in anger before the advent of ABS and ARBs. Those guys had some serious ability
Вечная память!культовый и таллантливейший человек в истории!
The way he drives this focus, wow.
God-like driving, he was it in some way connected with the car. The best among all of them.
Chuck Norris washed Colin McRae’s windscreen after every stage
I feel totally honoured and privileged to have a Subaru rally plaque here in the old 555 logos etc signed by Colin McRea. what a total legend he was . Sadly taken way too early
4:35 Pendulum Finesse.
Chicco Chiggx yeah I watched that flick like 10 times. Watch closely and you can see how he does one first weight transfer just to let the car go straight on the pendulum, so then we can call this move the double scotch flick! Just insane. What about 6:00 high speed turn
God bless Colin!! He is the best!! He allways will bee..:)
Real fans Champion!
Jesus.. done some pretty heavy driving myself, but this is a whole other level of crazy... Mcrae was from another world, no doubt about it
yeah a couple of times it was pretty close call but still I admit he had the BALLS to do it , so at least for that alone he was one of the greatest !!!!
Where he was from neptun
He is now
Another world? Yeah its called Scotland mate lol
I got to go 15 min as a passenger with a top professional rally driver in a Subaru as part of a promo for Rally of Canberra and as someone who used to go kart a bit and has spent some time driving on tracks in race cars and I also have my introductory certificate into Rallying that these guys are absolutely on a different level.. they are thinking so far ahead that they enter turn 1 on this weird line so it let's them exit turn 3 perfectly and the amount of trust they put in that car.. I love racing and going fast and he even asked me 'fast or really fast?" and I told him to go as fast as he possibly could.. and he did!! I was shytting myself and the noise and vibrations from rocks smashing the bash guard under the car plus the backfiring from the exhaust and stink of petrol as we were getting air @ 175 kph in the forest gave me such a sensory overload. one of the top 3 experiences of my life. Next level.
Superb footage. Absolutely superb. My first car was a Mk1.5 Focus. Hard to believe that mine and King Colin's car were the same car on the outside but of course it stopped there lol.
Rest in Peace Colin McRae. Still sadly missed
It was because of Colin I fell in love with the mk1 focus, I now own 2, if in doubt, flat out!
No wonder none of the other drivers (makinen included) could follow his lines!!! They all said it, if you come on the stage behind McRae there no chance of following his line, now we see why!!! The way he dispatched that chicane in 5th gear half way thru 😧 RIP MAC
Andrew Ritchie i know right...
5:02 ?^!?^! gee
I understand better why he crashed so often ;)
Realmente impressionante.
Colin é uma daquelas unanimidades esportivas que temos sorte de poder ver de novo.
Great! Colin is the best. Good video, good job... Thanks...
These few minutes r way better than 2hrs of an action thriller movie...
Truly dominated...
Colin McRae always push it beyond the limit...this is amazing stuff of motorsport history
what a genius...hats off Colin McRae...we miss you...
Incredibile come l'auto risponda immediatamente al pilota e come il pilota segua il suo istinto e il navigatore.
Incredibile,tecnica,talento,automobile e soprattutto il navigatore.
what a driving style!! there are part of the special where some drivers can be quicker with a more traditionnal style, but there are corners where u can't be quicker. Crazy sense of the rotation of a car. His timings are amazing.
My god does he throw it into the bends early, judged to perfection. Some man for the Scandinavian flick!
3:05 unreal drift
How can u 👎🏻 this
What a creature you are !
Nothing but skill and talent there,says a lot about u !
Never you'll watch this kind of driving, RIP Colin, the rally world miss you so mutch
Amen to that. Unique.. irreplaceable
Did he die "at work" ?
@@johnthompson9602 Crashed his helicopter with his Son and a few others. Read it on Google Mate.
I wouldn't dare to drive like this even on a playstation...
I would get nauseous while doing this on the Playstation even!
If what you said is true, Boy you're missing the whole point of playing a video game. Go play and be fearless.
Pusseys
Good luck not hitting a tree while 120mph drift jumping
ido this in a van... haha
Colin no merecía lo que le pasó, pero para mí, sigue siendo una leyenda de los rallyes
Гладиатор , настоящий мужчина. Из холодной Сибири все привет
Best driver ever ... Rest in Peace Colin 😓
race in peace
A true rally driver in purest form... God how I miss McRae. RIP.
he's doing it better than I do in the game!
yes...
Paulius Kairys oh and what's the game?
Dirt Rally or RBR
He was THE GREATEST EVER Rally Driver! 100% Most Talented/Gifted and most exciting to watch!
He was like SENNA, but in rallying. Legends!! One changed f1 and leaved impact for the rest of the time in f1, other changed rallying.
