    -He walked away alive from a 037

    12:54 my favorite quote is when he was racing the Audi team, he was already in the finish; they were waiting on Michéle Mouton's S1 to arrive, but she radioed in that the car caught fire on stage, what to do? Walter said: well, just drive into water! And that's what she did. I believe that year she came 2nd in the Rally Championship.

    Walter has to be in his mid 70's or so by now and even after all this time he's left foot braking, drifting and sliding all in perfect control while having a nice conversation in his 2nd language.
    If you haven't seen his driving from his career please go and watch the videos. His skill and car control - especially when you remember cars back then were completely analogue - are amazing to this day.
    He's a genuine legend and a really nice guy to boot.
    I love this video. Nice one, Misha.
    Edit - 12:10 - apparently 76 years old.

    1975 Opel Ascona, 1978 Fiat 131 Abarth, 1983 Lancia 037, unfortunately he didn't win the Acropolis with Audi. I grew up hearing stories and watching highlights of those wins. I love rally because he probably left a lasting memory in my subconscious. Him and Mischel Mouton. I remember her winning with Audi. Memories. One of your greatest videos.

    Walter Röhrl is an absolute Legend!First time seeing Him drive was a CZcams video where He drove the 997.1 GT3 RS and later the 997.2 GT3 RS. The way He drives is so smooth in the Twisty roads of the mountain but His handling of the Car is yet so Calm and Stable going really Fast. He was talking while driving as well just like this video, but You'd notice He never lost any concentration or fumbling in His steering wheel. Amazing experience to watch Him Drive!🚗

    This is one of the most informative and probably exclusive vids you've made, Epic! And about being, are starting in motorsport, i'm convinced that some people just have the 'natural feeling' after a while, like when i was young and sitiing in the car, i always wanted to put my foot firmly on the car to feel the hobbles and so on, but had no idea why i did that, and by coincidence, i did my first trackday at 23, and haven't crasched (on track) since, but i'm def not saying i'm such natural, but Walter has that ability as he says around 11:00 till 11:30ish. Hope to see more of those shared drives with pro's and even people who just are addicted to it, like thilo, moran, and so on....
