One of the BEST engines...one of the BEST endurance prototype cars... legendary 905 ... that's a Peugeot...yes...today, some people laugh...THESe car...THESe team won two times LeMans, and two Championship old wec...the v10 engines was demanded and watched to F1
Great start to the weekend, epic video sir!!I honestly don't know why this era of cars wasn't a huge success. Sharing F1 engines should've made it more affordable as the development was already done via F1. Baffling.
Peugeot developed the V10 for Group C, _then_ had to make it work in a more aggressive tune than its original design for F1 in 1994 (their two programmes were one-after-the-other, not simultaneous). It would've saved money for manufacturers already in F1, but if you were starting in Gr.C and didn't want to spend F1-level cash on the engine then it was a tough deal, especially given F1 had a much higher TV profile, so if you were purpose-building a 3.5 V10 then why not just do F1 and not spread money across two programmes? That was Bernie Ecclestone's plan all along, many speculate. If so, his plan successfully lured Peugeot across... for better or worse. Ditto Mercedes, who left Gr.C and (via Ilmor) supplied Sauber F1 for '94, plus McLaren from '95 after the, ahem, Peugeot engine didn't adapt to F1 spec very well...
This engine sounds majestic but at the same time tragic. Because this engine (the regulation, to be exact) sent the whole group C endurance racing to doom
3 of the group C collection is done Peugeot 905, Lola T92/10 & Porsche 962!. Now its time for Lancia LC2 Nissan R90CK Toyota TS010 Mazda 787B Mercedes C9/C11 Jaguar XJR9/12 Aston Martin AMR1

camera angle is just perfect
The car sounds also is epic.
Legendary car! Thank you! There are NO good onboards of the 905 until now.
There's one at Paul Ricard circuit too.
@@ec6843and also at Sebring.
@@ec6843What the fuck that cam is identical in angle to this one
Still looks modern, 30 years later. And sounds magnificent.
Building an engine capable of running at 12000+ RPM for 24 hours is seriously impressive.
I don't think it would last much longer than 24 hour though. It's no 7.0 V12.
@@v4skunk739or Porsche engine
@@v4skunk739 Do you know how to read? He only said 24, not "more than 24."
Shows that the V10 engine can work miracles on endurance cars

@@hectornecromancer5308but wouldnt using the same engine just modified reduce the production costs instead of making 2 whole diferent ones? Wtf

@@unkindled6410 probably due to initial cost of developing F1 engine in the first place. Which is not affordable for smaller team
Another fantastic video as always! Keep up the great cinematographic content.
The sound of the 90's ! Both F1 and endurance !
Thanks Robbert !
Those alpinestars gloves are as sick as the sound. F1 endurance car amazing
This engine and the success of this car made Ron Dennis choose Peugeot over Lamborghini as official engine supplier for McLaren in 1994 (as well as the suitcase full of money offered by the French)
Thanks a lot for this footage, and also thanks to Erik Maris for driving this car like its supposed to.

For sure and even more when you're driving an iconic collector's racing car for which there should only be a few copies left !! 😰🥵 😉
It's always a good day when Robbert upload! Great job, as usual! Cheers!
Legendary car, with a beautiful V10 sound! Perfect! 😍
How the hell did I not know about this channel before? This and all the other videos are amazing! Totally worth a sub!
Marvelous Sound.
A symphony of ICE!
The best of the best is back at it yet again
This thing is an absolute rocket! 😍😍😍😍😍
I swear if you stop uploading these one day I will be devastated. Only thing missing is the iconic cold blue filter!
lovely car on a lovely track. 10/10!!
"We forgot to connect Robbert, you will not have the drink."
Classic treat from Robbert. Thank you.
I just discovered this channel and I can say that it is the best channel in the history of RUclips
what a machine
Now if we could just get your sound quality into video games life would be good
What a car. Great onboard 👍🏻
To me the Peugeot 908 Hdi is the first Peugeot I think of when it comes to endurance racing, but still, this V10 sound is unmatched!
another insane onboard video by Robbert. Thank you
An extraordinary video, as usual. Thank you very much Robbert !
what a sound that is! arguably the best v10!
Sounds exactly like an F1 engine from the early 90s.
That makes perfect sense because this very engine ended up in F1 cars with minor modifications
The engine displacement was the same.
@@JuanCarlos-tv2hu ..but they spin them up almost twice as fast in the F1's! That same engine turning close to 20,000 rpm is like the song of our people!🤣
AMAZING
The best channel and the best car on one of my favourite track. My dream has finally come true 🥺 Thank you so much Robbert !
HE DON'T MISS
Beautiful as always
Excellent work as always.
Insane quality 😮

Simply fantastic
Absolutly amazingg ❤❤❤❤❤❤
YES! THANK YOU!
Best content on youtube!!!!
This is so good
Awesome!
buttery smooth
Perfection.
FIA should hire you to make long form content promoting motorsport, I dream of watching this kind of content in theaters
Thank! You!
How can you get the sound to be so good. Magic !
Dayyyum ! Is it a manual h-pattern gearbox? Or sequential shifter?
Sequential

Thanks for the video. Would be great if you could highlight the differences between this car and 962 ( from your experience/perspective)
🙌🔥🔥
Craziness👍🚘👍👍
What a space ship.
Will you be doing any recordings at Spa Classic next week?
Time when Peugeot was great in racing
Robbert do you think that the engine was tuned down a bit? I think it could have been a lot faster through the straights.
Robbert what do you do? and how do you get access to such sweet cars?
Just lovely. Pozdro666
🤯🤯
Sound a million times better than 2014-2024 F1
Long live ICE! ❤
The 905 in real life and GRAN TURISMO 2 are equally fantastic.
Reminds me of my Peugeot 206 GTi
Which was not even 1% legendary as this one!
Pas mal non ? C’est français ❤
If only peugeout put a V10 based on this on a road car. Closest were the 907/8 V12 projects.
bro got to drive all the gt4 cars
wonder how it compares to lmdh/lmh
I was waiting for this! 🔥🔥🔥
Thank you robbert❤
Peugeot cooked with this one
Sounds like a v10 formula 1 car on a formation lap
Because it is an F1 engine that was then adapted for endurance racing
🤤🤤🤤
the sound of this is the one thing forza got right
This engine sounds majestic but at the same time tragic. Because this engine (the regulation, to be exact) sent the whole group C endurance racing to doom
How did lap times compare to F1 those days?
Peugeot 905 would’ve qualified at the tail end of the top 10 in silverstone in 1992 or 1993
Sequential manual gearbox?
Yup
Some say Le Mans is the best circuit. Others say Nürburgring. I say that this one has a special SPAce in my hart
Mooi filmpje. Volgende week zijn wij ook op Spa met de Marcos. Misschien kunnen we babbelen.
Leuk! Stuur me maar even een berichtje via mijn website of Instagram!

It sounds like a high reving v6 instead😅😅😅
Wow
This is pretty cool
Nope, clearly we can hear a major third in the engine sound, like every 5 and 10 cylinders. 3, 6 and 12 are in perfect fifth. 😉👍
Do you need a roommate? I’m available
Is he in a race? The answer to that is obviously no, so there's no reason to be driving over the curbs. It's bad enough we have to see it in F1 ¿`_
wrong gear ratios
So what's the technical edge over others ? nothing
They won le mans twice with the 905 :)
Disgusting sound
those colors!
3 of the group C collection is done

I heard more cars are coming on the grid soon, the Brun C91, and they might restore the Konrad KM-011.
