You mean the spin at 8 minutes into the video? The fact that he didn't crash, didn't stall, and was able to press of afterwards at a good pace?

It was remarkable how the road surface unsettled the car leading to the spin.

Wipers earlier in the run though so I guess it's not as fast as when dry and warm... :wink:

I like the slight wheelspin before SX. 8)

8) yep saw it, but didn't look well enough to see wet tarmac, when wet, he is a hero in my book.
