- Опубликовано: 8 фев 2025
- Team Abu Dhabi by tolimit driver Sean Edwards finished 4th overall, 3rd in Supercup, 3rd in Carrera Cup and now leads both championships.
The race was so wet and it being his first time at this track in these conditions the race was a tough one!
The car is a standard 2011 997 GT3 Cup with no abs.
6:04 is epic
I have to say, it takes some massive balls to drive that fast in The Ring in the rain and with another car spitting all that water on your windshield!!!!
Great driving, best of luck!
Great drving, fun to wach.... so sad that he isn´t there anymore.... RIP!
Looking your Vid after a long Time...never forget you Champ.
this vid never gets old, car control at its finest
One of the most amazing videos of Nordschleife i ever see..
True master of his craft .You can see the feel he has for the car, you cant teach that you either got it or you don't.
A real loss to motorsport just glad we have all the in car footage of Sean.
The world misses you Sean, the god of smooth hands. You'll never be forgotten!
I was trackside on the main straight watching this, just couldnt believe the amount of spray being thrown up AND you guys kept full power on.....brilliant, just brilliant spectacle!!!
Brilliant drive. Seriously. Great car control, terrific braking, excellent rolling momentum, and really cool to watch the driver search for grip. On top of all of that, huge balls. That place is scary enough in the dry let alone the wet. Thanks for posting.
RIP Sean. your the man
So sad to hear of the loss of Sean, this video shows his amazing talent. What a truly awesome driver who will be verysadly missed
at 11:35 lovely float into the next corner. calm and collected.. not sure if it was intended.. but damn it looked good.
-Wonderful piece of driving! Just amazing! Cheers.
We miss you... incredible
I've only just found this for some reason Sean, brilliant drive and great to watch with a long drink! Hope to see you back managing the Don't Lift racing team soon - forget this Porsche stuff! ;- ) .
Absolutely unbelievable. SO dangerous out there... Huge respect to Sean!!! Almost not human to be pushing like that in those conditions!!
Will never forget you Sean
Excellent & smart drive and excellent set up of the car - exciting to watch!
The guy clearly has talent and balls in equal measures!!
Stunning - simply stunning...
Amazing driving, thanks for sharing this video! Driving that fast on a wet nürburgring is something wild. :)
Good bye Sean Edwards 💔❤️
Reminds me so much Senna, the cool way he drives in the rain !
He will be missed......
RIP. Generational type talent, wish I could have seen him in person
congratullations Sean! great race. hugs from Argentina
Very nice, thanks for all these onboards! Good luck.
I'll always think back to this video whenever you're mentioned... Full power, full lock, and grabbing another gear! RIP Sean...
RIP Sean. True legend.
Wow. That was the most impressive driving i've ever seen. I've always heard that the rain makes the difference btw a good driver and a great one. We've got proof here.
Sir: respect.
10:34 is like THIS IS WHAT I WAS WAITING FOR 10 MINUTES, AND WILL TAKE ANOTHER 10 TO COME AGAIN!
I race my 911T occassionally on the Sepang Race Track, and Im not easily impressed. But I am impressed with Sean. truly a great driver.
Sean must have some damn good sensors at his back :-) Was a pleassure to watch this on board video!
... and most epic and awesome video (thanks a million for the upload) It's a lot more then masterpiece (in considering it is a first wet race) ... Sean is a true master of the Green Hell and his awesome GT3 Porsche beast!
i cant imagine how it is to drive in a car without abs and such a big cloud of rain in front of you *_* just awesome drive dude!
you sir are my new hero. Bravo!
B to the BALLS of the driver! And also the rain tyres seem pretty f*ing amazing!
Just one word: RESPECT!!!
Rip Sean, great driver and one of my favourites.
Amazing. Absolutely amazing. We are not worthy!
I agree, that was an amazing maneuver.
I am impressed by your strategy! All oportunities taken but main goal to finish a race. I was in June in Clio in similar condition peace of cake compared to your speed & way of Porsche behavior
Great driving, i hope one day i could be half as good!
Yes i remember him racing at Monza on a Sunday a few years back in GT2 then that evening i was racing against him on rFactor .
Sean Edwards is a BEAST
Great driving man, that looks like quite the workout...
This water is worst then F1 wet days! Great race Sean!!!
Some great driving sean
Balls of steel mate.
hey sean im really looking forward to see u driving next race hope u come to sweden somtime and ur porsche sound best in the world ps its my wake-up-alarm : )
R.I.P. Great driver
Sequential shifter married to a dog clutch. You select gears sequentially, with no way to directly access a gear (like a traditional H-pattern). Upshifting without using the clutch is can be done with or without lifting the throttle, depending on the transmission. Downshifting, you need to blip the throttles to keep the engine revs at the right rpm to maximize braking efficiency and keep stress on the engine. You heel-toe the brake/throttle and engage the clutch.
@seenthroughglass have you ever seen this? Still the greatest in car vid ever. R.I.P Sean, never forgotten.
Breathtaking
Yes pure natural talent!
Fantastic drive.
RIP Sean. :-( You were awesome.
Sean Edwards became my new favorite European GT driver at exactly 6:04 :)
Most people would struggle to pull of a drive like that in the dry. Great driver.
Fantastic driving. There is nothing like a driver skilled in the rain. We didnt need any of that in Dubai, did we? I was on car 14, GT3R.
Awesome racing! Your eyes must have been out on stalks trying to see through the spray.
Godspeed Sean.
Hey Sean! Really cool that you're itself uploading your videos! Other Driver should do that too! (sry for my english but you know what i mean)
RIP. Great onboard.
Would have been about an 8:12 lap around the nordschleife by my measurements... at least how the manufactures measure it. Amazing video. It felt like a 6 minute lap.
Fantastic work bud !
That was unreal!!
awesome footage!!!
Racecars have an different Steering Transmission, in Streetcars you can turn the Wheel 2,5 times.
In Racecars only 0,5 times.
So 180 degree is the maximmum.
A cloud of water is a cloud of water in 360p, 720p or real life. Visibility is zero. This is skill.
That's insane. For a point there it looked like all 4 wheels were hydroplaning.
Quick question, how do Porsche race teams counters the weight difference as the fuel tank in the front empties? Do they re position the tank to the middle or just hope it doesn't effect the car?
Doc: Whats your problem man ?
Pat:costiveness
No problem take a ride in THIS ;)
Greetings
Thomas
RIP, Awesome talent.....
Well done Sean!
DVC!
Talent.
great video, congrats!!
I can't believe it. I have raced against him in rFactor online racing... RIP Sean!
Einer der besten Fahrer der Welt - leider musste er von uns gehen !!!!
nice one .thank you !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i could watch this all day long
(i'm doing it)
what kind of shifting is this car? it has a clutch and a stick... but the stick only goes to ways... he doesnt clutch when upshifting but he clutches when down shifting... some oen explain?
Brilliant! And scary!
If I was to drive in the rain in the Nurburgring, I'd probably pee in my pants before the race even started.
RIP....great driver....sorry to the family :(
Rest in Peace. Amazing talent lost.
Amazing driving. :O
Long live the Nordschleife.
R.I.P Sean :(
Godspeed.
Rest In Peace
Holy shit, that was one hard drive.
His view is as clear as my view is clear on most math subjects
Humans are amazing !
Greetings
Thomas
;)
Nice save @ 6:00
respect!!!
Jeez, Sean bought along the right pair of testicles for that event!!
Nowt like driving a 550odd horsepower, rear drive - read engine, no ALB car with the 911 turbo's skittish rep at 200mph in the lashing rain with zero visibility.
On one of the most challenging race tracks on the planet.
I doff my hat to your knackersson - and may they rest in peace in that special place up there with all the other gonad-normous race drivers who lost their lives driving like whippets with bums full of chilli powder.
RIP
You will be missed.
Porsche: For the win.
Teehee, I can't believe I just made that pun.
Awesome!
R.I.P. Sean.
R.I.P my friend.
same here... he was never above racing/playing games with us normal folk :).
