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.
I love British commentators. They seem to know more about what's going on, a better knowledge and just sound better in general.
I've been a fan of rally and hillclimb for many many years, and I may have to watch a few more of these!
SWEETBUTTER!!! Thanks WRCforeva, you are the man!
Thanks for uploading these races mate. Greatly appreciate it!
awesome! i hope you upload all rounds of GRC ;) great stuff! Many Thanks!
Back when Rallycross was popular in America.
Excellent upload thanks....
These are the nicest cars, I've always wanted a car built to race
well, this just demonstrates that a truly legit wrc driver will always have more experience in any type of circumstance
Wow! hope you put more of these up as well! I will be sending you a christmas present now for all these vids :D
great job
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.
ken blocks car is genuinely brilliant it transforms to whatever discipline kens racing its amazing all in a matter of minutes
thanks
This is actually pretty damn awesome with someone from the UK speaking. It increases the awesome :D
put more from GRC when available!
Does anyone know what channel the Belgian Formula 1 Grand Prix will be on?
useing your breaks is a comon driving techniqe!?!? MIND BLOWN. thankyou knowledgeable female commentator.
More Global Rallycross Championship Action!
the rear ducts on the subarus, are those for rear-mounted radiuators, or brake/cabin cooling?
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.
very great championship, i like if you can load all the championship season step by steap THANK YOU :)
KEN BLOCK CAN´T DEAL WITH HIS EMOTIONS
and Marcus kicked their asses and will always do, with one hand!!
How did I miss this!??!! ...HOW????
Well, you already got some good alternatives; KZread & MotorsTV MotorsTV are possibly broadcasting in the States, but the free option is youtube, as mentioned ;)
Marcus wiped the floor with them
He was keeping up with Gronholm, who went on to win the whole event.
why is only 6th gear displayed on Block's Fiesta ? o.O
Marcus Gronholm! Legend!
Loving it better than NASCAR turn left what's the next corner again?
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..
beautiful!
why would anybody sponsor Buck Lasek, it seems like he comes in last in every WRC race
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
awesome, thanks for uploading :)
ma koji pastrana, mirra i ekipa, gronholm and europe, all the way baby!! :D
Kust cos he stalled on the line doesn't mean something's broken. What is this guy on?
I thought the terms to call it rallycross, the tracks had to have a gravel section. Or is that just european rallycross?
First 2 go thru' right ?
The Dodge Dart 😍😍😍 29:15
how is this rallycross?
Loeb is in X Games 18 I guarantee he is going to win Gold in one of the rallycross events
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!!!!!
GRC has improved in 2013 but still lot of work to do, red flags, that horrible invention of the penalty box etc...
is winness a word
why do they call it pole position ?
Кен Блок шоумен а не гонщик !!!
if i had a dollar for every time they said, "Discount Tire, AMERICA'S Tire hairpin," i could buy myself a set of tires
As tragic as it is, I'm almost getting used to Travis Pastrana getting punted off of the track by someone.
Ads are the reason you can watch this for free on KZread.
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.
Whats up with the subarus there really slow!
Is that a rally SAAB??
No I live in America but the only person from the ERC that is the X Games is Liam Doran
Block never seems to know when it's time to push and when he should keep calm to stay on the propper driving lane
I mean the subarus i talked about never got close to a battle all of them maybe had a problem.
What he gets is a really good car!
Grumpy Bear: God damn it! 26:13
This is just a better form of racing for me. The only problem I see is there aren't enough drivers!
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.
back when US rallycross was more then just Ford, VW, and Subaru
ken block doing what he does best
ruuuuuuruuuuurrrrr schuuuureddd BOOOMMMMM!!!!
I would watch European Rallycross but i don't have the channel cause i'm in America
Montoya is a former F1 champion? Since when?
IKR!!!! they're just pointing out the obvious
Grönholm*
maybe nascar just isn't for everyone? I LOVE Rallycross, Nascar, the cars are awesome....here, the races are awesome!
i noticed that to wonder whats going on
jump looks dangerous :X
LOL i found her commentary quite hilarious to be honest haha
how could they not red flag heat 1 when burton stopped right after the corner?
That was pretty sick. Not as great as foreign but SOO much better than nascar.
tanner foust is host in top gear usa
the only problem is that everyone thinks its boring cause its racing but it isnt
And yes th
where's the gravel? where's the mud? =/
why does Sverre always fail?!
ha hubinette is the man. Celebrating a 1st place in a heat race like he just won le mans.
I'm not convinced the commentators know anything about auto racing
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.
if u r new to this,the number on the cars is not big enough. and only 6 laps???..thats gay
So bad ass I don't even know what to say
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! ;)
you could do this in a car park, where's the dirt?
block proving again sideways isn't best and hes not that good
What was Ken Block thinking?!
how this is global i don't know and i agree this track needs a gravel/mud section
If you want to win, employ a Fin!:D
I agree, there was only one real rally driver on tha track
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.
True. Toby Moody is an expert on MotoGP, but not this kind of racing.
uhhh Jen Horsey has been around Rally for quite a long time....and Toby Moody is British, so hence the different vocabulary
i don't like watching videos when i don't know the videos is about
He is actually Finnish
Be proud to do a big jump, to ... make shit the next corner !!!
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
26:16 check the brake horsepower!!!!!!!!
