Yeah I always get the impression from the Block videos that they are bit too well edited and I think the kissing the wall incident was left in on purpose to try and detract from this. There are admittedly less tyre marks in this one left from previous attempts / practices. Plain fact is, if he were the master of car control that the videos make him look like, he would be winning WRC stages.

That said, next year the WRC move to using the super 2000 spec cars, which is exactly what that Fiesta is. So I imagine the car he's using in this video is the exact same car he'll be rallying in next year. Might make a difference as he moved from Subaru in Rally America to Ford for the current WRC season.

However he's still a lot better at it than me :lol:
