Night Owl Rally I think he’s one of the fastest outright wrc drivers ever, he reminded me of the late Colin McRae

Lahti, in Finland, about an hour north of Helsinki, or ten minutes, depends who's driving :-)

Jari-Matti i have one question about heel/toe,i saw that you didnt use this technic?i know that the car has dogbox, but what is your opinion about this technic?use it or not?

I met jari Marti latvala once at castle coombe and told my son that latvala is the Finnish Colin McRae, he (latvala) heard me and said if only I was that good.

Colin McRae was Scottish Ari Vatanen

The driving with a H pattern box is so much more impressive. The footwork required is incredible.

I scrolled down hoping to see such a comment. What a work of art.

This must be the best rally clip ever.

He was really on the limit here, this was awesome to watch.

This is the best by far in vid I've ever seen, and I've seen a lot.

holy crap the sequence that starts at 3:30, WOW! Showing the fans the level it takes to be perennial top 3 in WRC. I hope this is your year, Jari Matti! I root for you!

Great control and handling ! Courageous driving.

Too much perfection for one video.

yah, had to share with all my friends, that flying transition at 3:32... art. Just amazing to watch. I love watching the older historic rallies. The cars move so much more. Reminds me of watching Sainz, Hakinen, Mcrae, Burns, and Gronholm when I was younger.

so many words are poping into my head watching this but i cant make a sentence out of them so im just going to say wow

Kudos to WRC drivers, this guy has appendages made of cold steel!

how can anyone give that a thumbs down? that was like ballet...the one arm bandit unreal

Now this is how you drive an Escort on the limit...Sucks that he didn't have a ride this year in WRC. Hopefully he will come back. I think he is the longest competing WRC driver. He is pretty funny when they interview him at the end of stages. They should make him a commentator or something.

This wasnt just rallying, this was pure art.

Jari, you've just become my favorite WRC driver. If I was a pro racer, I'd be uploading awesome and interesting onboards for my fans too. The car and driving in this video are amazing, thank you so much for uploading! I've subscribed, and look forward to more awesomeness from you in the future! Good luck in Germany!

Jari-Matti I love you so much you're beautiful inside and out thank you for being my friend

Back in his heyday they called Roger Clark Mr Sideways and he amusingly quoted that he was only ever worried when he was looking out through the back window.

gets better every time I watch it!

It is one thing to have balls, it is quite another to display such finesse and racecraft in a random set of conditions, pacenotes aside. Respect.

No Pacenotes in this one, its a Route Book only..So "blind"...That makes this even more crazy.

Shows that you dont need fancy sequentials and paddles! Brilliant lines and carrying speed. Top class!!

Stunning, Jari-Matti looks far more at home in this car and far more natural than he ever does in the WRC cars IMHO. Epic awesome brilliant vid, thanks for sharing :)

Seriously brilliant driving. Give these men medals.

I assume the dislikes are from Americans who don't understand the concept of turning right?

Insane stuff. Good luck with the rest of the WRC season.

One of the best of all onboards on youtube

I just smiled the entire ride! Awesome driving!

I think nobody, I mean nobody, has never ever driven so fast with historic-spec Escort mk2 on gravel. Partly because of the tires but mostly because of Jari-Matti. 💪💪💪

I've just watched the Portugal Rally and you won! Great victory :-)

dat sound..... i love this video

Like a MAD MAX! My God what a stage! Congratulations. All luck for you in Germany awesome awesome this onboard lifts up

i really do love your driving style man :)

unreal ... respect !!

Just an amazing class of RWD driving with such an engine power. Looks like it is your backgroud, impressive driving

Looks so relaxed.

Beautiful!

From 3.33 till 3.42 I think I pissed my self :D Awesome driver.

Massive skilled drivers hands down!

God bless that duo

One of the most awesome onboards I have ever seen. Holy shit.

genial!!! siempre fue mi idolo Jari Matti !! desde ARGENTINA

This shows the true brilliance of one of the fastest WRC-pilots ever. In a WRC-car its difficult to see who really can drive, but in a RWD like this, you show the true mastery. One thing is the incredible speed over crests, into turns etc, but the most impressive (except for the "happening" around 3.30 WTF!) is how the exit speed and acceleration is kept by keeping the car pointed strait at the exits. Incredible! WRC should be made RWD, with unlimited engines and aerodynamics!

Stunning drive!

3:34 - 3:43 On the very limit ! Always impressive to see Latvala driving, very flamboyant and spectacular.

Brilliant driving!

Fantastic driving

FANTASTIC

About million times more interesting than the shitty incars we have had in the WRC coverage for the past ten years or so.

Wow.... THAT is some proper on the limit driving!!

Awesome driver awesome car and that screaming BDA WOW

Whaaa I didn't know Jari-Matti had his own youtube channel! Awesome!!!!

God I love watching videos like this! Wish I could be in one!

Power to weight goes out the window with balls that big!!!Amazing skills!

Superb!

Incredible !! The best !!

awesome racing

Awesome driver!! Well sorted mk2 escort.FLAT. OUT.

Grip hack, definately grip hack... THAT"S INCREDIBLE!!

amazing driving

What a stage! getting wild, yeoowww!

Great drive, great race, great land...

Had a Datsun 1600 with 240BHP years ago. Went like the clappers. This beauty has 287 apparently! Must be so much fun to drive!

It sounds fabulous :)

Voin sanoa. Yksi hurjimmista rallipätkistä koskaan mitä olen nähnyt.👍

Master at work.

Amazing. What a ride.

Perfection!

Flying Fin "King of the Gravel Roads". You gotta love that bda moar :)

Incredible

That BDA is singing beautifully!

Awesome driver and car!

SICK !

this guy is a BEAST!

Can't see Jarri's face in the vid, but I'll bet he's as calm and relaxed as he always looks in the driver's seat!

5:20 That sounded expensive!!! Seriously though, that is just remarkable driving and a lovely car too. What a talented man!

This is just lunatic (positively) ._. Just wow, amazing driving lesson!

Bela pilotagem! Está de parabéns

so much driving skillz my head is going to explode

Brilliant my god, controlled madness.

perfect driving corner
