    Got this on VHS - is good

    I'm sure that'd be achievable nowadays though - I want to try! :P

    Watched the full one recently and its incredible to see how little steering input he uses in many of the sections. Flat through some corners.

    I'll be buggered if that sounds or corners like a standard Vitesse!

    Awesome lap though. Big respect.
