10 years old and I still come back to watch. The greatest car upload on CZcams. Period.
100%. I've just rediscovered this video having not watched it for donkey's years. As a 12 yr old who was obsessed with the 3.8 RS, this was my absolute favorite car video on the internet. 9 yrs later I still think the 3.8 is the cat's pajamas and I still think this vid is better than any other car content I see nowadays.
At least twice a month haha
This deserves at minimum a 480p reupload. Too good
I remain unsure if I can upvote your comment infinite times. But yeah, same for me. Nothing beats this.
Still epic almost ten years on...
god dam i wish this was in hd
It's funny when people say he's driving dangerously, but he is more in control and safer than a 30 year old mum talking on her phone with whilst putting her makeup on
"I can't even describe what he just did there." What a legend: Francois Delecour!
...or there... (giggles)
10 years on and this is still one of the best motoring videos on the internet
Delecour. Probably the best tarmac rally driver ever. LEGEND
He and Panizzi, also Loeb. They know how to do it in France.
Bugalski also, god rest his soul
"Here at night, when there's nobody coming towards you, then you go flat-out! Cause believe me, when i drive now, i go SLOW."
Still one of the finest clips on the internet, even during COVID-19 lockdown in 2020
Rally drivers, freaking nut cases. God I love them, Francois especially on Route Napoleon! Tarmac king, and that flat six. Pavarotti!
Francois would be the perfect getaway driver!
francois is such a special person:the character of a mad dog, the heart of a lion, and the eyes of a ten years old kid. and a TRUE rally enthousiast,i mean he still loves rallying from the bottom of his heart. and Chris,who knows his shit in rallying,knew exactly what he was doing when filming that.
So awesome. They were flying. Look at the scenery flying by. I would like to know the speeds. But the car was bottoming out! He was bottoming out a GT3 RS :)
Amazing. The noise, the sideways, so epic.
Amazing. The look on his face going maybe 8/10 full of heart! yes WRC and most motorsport doesn't have the passion or love it use to. Thank you we miss the years of past! Keep driving with our heart
The face of Chris says it all. He's driving it like he stole it. Love this vid!
What a proper proper guy.. Just a petrolhead, like us!
Not normally a fan of Porsche 911s, but that is pretty.
You consider yourself a proper petrolhead, yet you're not a huge fan of the 911s - let alone the GT3? Didn't you just hear what a racing driver had to say?
Amin El So because I'm not a 'particular' fan of the 911, that means I'm not a proper petrolhead? Having owned 26+ motorbikes..mostly Superbikes, and currently on my 6th TVR a 420 SEAC...I'm still not a petrolhead?? Even my Focus ST has been remapped to 280bhp! Sorry, but I don't go in for that crap. It's the same as saying if you've never owned an Alfa you are not a true petrolhead either! It's total bullshit!!
Anyway, my original statement says 'normally' I'm not a fan.. but I do like rather a lot the GT2 & GT3 Porsche's!
Years ago I almost bought a classic 930 Turbo.. now I wish I had seeing how their values have now sky rocketed!!
@@waynester71 wow 280hp, you be careful!!🤣
@@lukekindred1999 5 years ago..when I still had the ST, I was, so no need to worry..
@@waynester71 these need for speed playing children will have no idea what youre talking about when you say TVR 420 SEAC. respectable car. infinitely more interesting than an equivalent 911.
Watch this every single year
This has got to be the best CZcams video ever thanks to Chris Harris & Francois Delecour plus Evo magazine and not to forget the amazing Porsche 911 GT3 RS🤩
One of the top motoring videos ever released. Legendary on so many levels
One of the best car videos on CZcams, period! Legend doesn't even come close Mr Delecour!!!
Yep - I’ve come back here again as we turn into 2024. Amazing vid.
Two brilliant drivers!!
And one Brilliant driver's car
Thank you, thank you, thank you very much. I drive GT3 on the track quite often but to see such a passionate driver like FD having so much fun, just confirms how good this car is and how cool is rally driving. Also, it's good to see a rally star behaving like a normal kid with a good toy. Well done EVO
Still my favourite CZcams clip .FANTASTIC
Superb, Harris is a good journo, Delecour is the supreme Driver, I remember when he used to Rally. Gosh I'd like to see the outside view of this!
Watching this in 2020. - pure gold, raw car journalism without unnecessary slow motion shots... I guess I'm getting old(er) (34yo)
What an excellent video! It's great to see the heros of yesteryear still showing us young guns how to drive a car.
Francois' enthusiasm is infectious and you can see he enjoys everything about cars. Well done!
Happy birthday Francois Delecour (29 Aug)
This driver. I like him.
This thing is absolute gold. The emotions and the experience... Just incredible.
Chris Harris' facials are classic, what Delecour does at 11:10ish and the giggles afterwards...what a car. Amazing car control.
Still epic in 2022!
crazy this was 6 years ago
One of the best videos I have ever seen! Francois Delecour - you are a legend, the WRC misses characters like you!
Such an amazing person
Still great after all these years!
I love the fact he made it and we can see Porsche 911s, Alpine A110s and Abarth 124 Spider in rally action!
Must a quite a joy ride with Francois, crazy man! I like it
Now this is something a little special!
Thank you very much.
May be the greatest automotive video in history, only some will understand
thanks for the vid guys. EVO is just amazing. you are one of the few to realize how the good car vid should look like: good sound recording and great driving skills. top it up with interesting personality, and you have exceptional video material. so easy and so difficult at the same time, as not that many people seem to realize that.
He could not make a better best friend, down to earth, truly passionate about cars, great sense of humour and not bad behind the wheel😉
I love this video. There couldn't be a better advert for a GT3 RS than this.
"the best is to come here at night, then you can go flat out" - a true legend! And this is how we also do back home hehehe
thumbs up for this one... I keep on watching it over and over again... one of my all time favourites together with the vid of Walter Rohrl in GT3 on Nurburgring and Ari Vatanen climbing Pikes Peak in group B Peugeot 405... pure pleasure to watch. amazing cars, and what is more impressive - driving skills. going flat-out, what seems to be on the edge with full control over the car and unbelievable confidence. he is focused and confident of his skills but so humble at the same time.
Back watching this again , utterly brilliant video
What a car ? What a driver
Love this 😎
whats so amazing is his face during his test drive in that Porsche. He is so focused! Even crazier then that is he said he was going "SLOW"! AWESOME. I can only wish I was the one in that car with him.
One of the few Rally demigods. Who does not remember the Golden Age with the extraordinarily fast Peugeot 306 Maxi!
this is the video that made me want a GT3 RS. Incredible.
If you are a petrol head, Delecour has to be a hero to you, I remember him back in WRC, his passion for rallying & entertaining people deserves respect.
Fantastic, just two guys having an absolute blast, felt like I was with them
this is still one of the funniest pieces of journalism i have ever seen chris is nearly crying at one point absolutely hilarious
9 years after and the people still demand this video in 4K
Great Vid Mr. Chris ;) !!!! The impression on Francois face at 10:47 just shows all his ambition and feelings for racing and the car, great job!
Would be great to do a follow up vid with Francois driving a 992 GT3 RS, with Chris sat beside him
It would be wonderful if Porsche, Ferrari, Audi returned to rally racing. Unfortunately the WRC rules would make it difficult with the 300 HP restrictions. Great Video EVO. Thank you.
GIVE HD !!!!
"Its quite an experience, absolutely fantastic absolutely fantastic!" just look at his face at 5:30 onwards. Great vid, more of the same please! we need monsieur delacour in gt2 rs with chris harris with car/road/cabin footage.
I still love this video.
thanks for this!
I LOVE this video! Francis is incredible! He can make the Porsche FLY!
Chris Harris, awesome as always.
This was great fun, esp. the end! Thx
Hey @EVO, if you re-released this video in HD lots of us would love it!
If anyone has this content in HD we implore you to share it with us! Such a special piece of footage
Legendary video, seems from another era
this is one of the best car vids on utube, even more so because of the comments by Delecour
actually i was thinking "please don't show us the road, show us how a LEGEND is handling that beast"
Great stuff Chris. Enjoyed every minute.
That is Amaaaazinggg!!
Great clip
@12:55 I have no world, (word) a true rally driver that us viewers of the motorsport need to see, Monsieur Delecour I salute you for the love you have for the sport.
the guy lives for this! great!
What a dude!!!!!!! Great vid
"Porsche: You don't need to touch engine at all!"
Omg, that engine sounds so good.
Awesome video, that car is perfect... The things i would do to one day own a GT3 RS...
Best vid seen in a long time.
