What a funny line he takes on the banking. I wonder why, because it'll lower his speed through the banking (tighter line and more steering lock), and reduce his potential though the following chicanes...

Yeah but he had more HP than the other guy so didn't have to worry about lines

he might have just been teasing the other guy

Maybe someone will correct me on this, but I believe that's Montlhéry, just outside of Paris. It's drastically shortened from its former glory (If still in use at all... anyone know? This footage looks recent....)

Ulster GP 2007. It was wet. Very wet. But addicts of Jim Pearson's GPL version of Dundrod might still recognise some landmarks:

Really good vid that one, an hour long too, thanks.

Those guys are nutters, the last 10 minutes were great onboard shots.

You're right, it's the Autodrome de Linas-Montlhéry. The movie matches the small track map at the French Wikipedia page (the English page is shorter). If my French is any good, the track lost its certification in 2004, but can still be used for track days and other 'unofficial' racing.

I love the little squeaky horn, brilliant.

Looks like an action packed track day. Easily doing all those porkers & then playing catch the Ferrari

. Me wonders what type of car he's drivng?
p.s.- i think he was too scared to use the banking.

That banking looks horribly bumpy and it's obviously a track day. Anybody know what though?

maybe he was afraid of the other guy braking early and didnt wanna slam into the f40's rear? or he didnt trust his own brakes? sounds like a honda? i could be wrong. infact i probably am.

Not sure if this is true but I saw that video years ago and it was titled Lotus Elise chasing F40.
