Hello my name is Alaa 21 years old my dream getting a car with the knowledge that I am just a student
U.S. 129 AKA The Dragon 318 curves in 11 miles when TN n NC allow it to be more?? 129 is 100X more dangerous then this wanna be pile 💩!!!!
Try US 129 11 miles 318 curves AKA "The Dragon" oh yea!!!!
The amount of confidence and trust with the car is like nothing else.
This was kind of boring.
188 bpm, so he was definitely nervous. i wont blame him, that track is scary af.
Crosby MGO yeah I was surprise too for a 40 years old man 188 bpm is like 8 bpm more than a regular 40 years old max cardiac frequency
Yes, and it is a Peugeot. My bpm would be close to the rev limiter man
I can say same thing if that was a Ford... Im sure you from US.
I guess it's hard to see that 25mph speed limit sign when you're going 140mph.
that's what i said to the police officer but he still gave me a ticket
@@gabbo3.070 u should have beaten him up, he prolly deserved it. Altough thats not for me to decide lol.
145Kph not MPH
@@RandyLittleStudios this is Pikes Peak in Colorado. We use MPH in America not KPH
@@ErectileSceptile uhh yeah I own a house 70 miles from pikes peak.
Sebastian Loeb ... truly one of the greatest drivers ever.
Damn straight he is.
@@christophersmith9654 no he is not..remenber alway mcrae
@@tiagodantasfreitas554 Colin Mcrash, just joking .. he had an attitude of give 💯, slow down just wasn't in his vocabulary. But as good as he was I was more of a Richard Burns fan, may they rest in peace.
@@tiagodantasfreitas554 Walter Röhrl you mean
@@christophersmith9654 Sure Bro!! we miss them both.
8 years later, and I still come back to watch this same video over and over again. One of the most intense pieces of driving ever filmed!
I was going to write the same comment. That's why I'm back here. Just incredible.
compared an wrc stage its tame
It's superb and Loeb is near-faultless and smooth, but 'Climb Dance' with Ari Vatanen doing it back when much of the course was still loose gravel is just- savage! Not saying one is better than the other but check it out if you've not seen it!
Ari Vatanen.
@@peterrenn6341 whoa. thanks for helping us discover that!
I wondered what the specs were, so I'm gonna leave them here
There’s a 3.2-litre mid-rear mounted V6 bi-turbo engine with 875bhp, a six-speed sequential gearbox with steering wheel-mounted paddle-shifts, four-wheel-drive, pressurised dampers, double wishbones and pushrod/rocker arm actuation at all corners, torsion bars, anti-roll bars all round, and vented carbon brake discs front and rear - measuring in at 380mm (f) and 355mm (r) - hiding behind 18in magnesium alloy wheels “derived from F1 technology”.
In fact, Peugeot is very proud of the fact this little Franken-208 packs more power than a modern Formula One car, tipping the scales at a frankly ludicrous 875kg. So yes, you’re right: it’s ruddy fast. 0-62mph takes just 1.8 seconds, 0-125mph takes 4.8 seconds and it’ll hit its 150mph top speed in just seven seconds flat.
Coffee Pjesht thank you for posting these. I was just about to go scouring the web for them.
not nowadays . Now they usualy have around 500-750 hp and weigh at like 500kg; still plenty of power to weight ratio though
I remember reading at the time that this car was literally Peugeot's LMP1 car with a 208 shaped bodyshell bolted on top.
875 cv pour 875 kg
@TastyMedula
Ehm...No, they don't. Formula 1 cars had around 950 hp at the peak of V10 era (2004) , then got slowly downgraded (first a V8 engine, then a decreased rev limit, then reduced fuel rate, etc), so they ended up with around 750 to 780 for the 2009 season. That's when engine development pretty much stopped (cost saving measure). It continued like that (noone managed to crack 800 hp with those 2.4 V8s iirc) until 2014 when the 1.6 V6 turbo hybrids were introduced. Now, we don't have the exact figures for how much they produced back in 2014 (although people speculate it was around 850 to 900), but the Formula 1 cars of 2017 were getting very close to 1000 hp and Mercedes claim they are now over 1000 hp in 2018.
As for the weight, the last time Formula 1 cars weighed 500 kg was until the deaths of Ratzenberger and Senna in 94 with cars getting bigger and heavier next season for safety reasons. In 2000s, cars were already 600 kg+. Modern F1 cars are 734 kg.
Makes me laugh all those comments about speed. Have you ever driven a car in real life not ps3 or 4 or whatever. Loeb makes a monster look easy. That's the thing. You go out there and try to control a 800 bhp monster and make it look like a sunday drive ! Funny how so many people think they drive better than a 9 times world rally champ !!!!
+Bruno Boucher The road up Pike's is a bitch to drive slow. Cant even imagine doing 150 in places. Some crazy skill.
+HDE ZOO Rall car isn't even popular in the US that is very much a European thing. That is why no one has heard of him.
18tangles Europeans are miles better at Rally car because it is not popular here at all. Americans are Europeans (a majority anyway) so there isn't anything different about them genetically that would make them better drivers. In Fact, Europeans (unless they are professionals, of course) drive less per year than Amercans by a mile...or kilometer.
18tangles I am an American who lived in France. Cut the bullshit. The whole of the Western United States is mountainous, and a good portion of the Eastern United States. The road in this video is in the US for fuck sakes. That isn't a factor and European drivers drive a lot less. I took the Bus a good portion of the time I lived in France, but when I got a car there wasn't anything super scary about the roads. There was one good one near Grenoble on the way to a monestary, but it is a lot less scary than some of the 4x4 trails in Southern Utah for example. Here in Canada I put 30,000 km's per year on my vehicles. It would be super rare to find someone who drove as little as a European, here. Canadians actually like rally car more than Americans, as well. Americans would be more about mudding, NASCAR (which I don't get at all), or Rockcrawling/Hillclimbing/Dragging. Once again, I lived in France and Switzerland. The difference is that rally car is not popular at all and that is about it. You guys love that shit we don't. They are as bad at Rally as you are at Rock Crawling. It is ALL (100%) about how popular it is. And helps to have a tradition (building experience) whatever kind of vehicle you use for a particular motorsport. America Love Dragcars for example, and they are very good at building them. There would be a learning curb for any Europeans learning to build one. A top Fuel Dragster can have more than 10,000 horsepower, can hit 160 Kph in 3/4 of a second (you read that right) and 520 kph in 3 seconds. There is an art form to building a top-fuel Dragster as there is with a high-tech million dollar Rally car. Drivers skill as with car building is all practice, pratice, practice.
+Bruno Boucher he's driving like hell..i think most of us would scare to death when driving "only" with him at a speed of 200+ km/h at this **** road ;)
I'm an F1 fan, but rallying is definitely the highest level of skill in motorsport. The only problem with this lap are the spectators.
Looking at some compilations the trackside fans end up being quite the spectacle, to put it one way
Isle of Man TT
Why are the spectators a problem?
@@gahb4326 At 0:46 You can see a spectator going across the track...not safe
@@gahb4326 They might get hit
how is nobody mentioning the fact that he absolutely obliterated the previous record and improved by over 90 seconds
because the road has been covered with tar. Previous attempts it was only dirt and dust.
because I have no idea what the previous record was.
@@pearbungler1165 the track got fully paved from 2012, he broke the record (which was from 2012) by 1m30, and even before that the track was partially paved
@@sawnlemouton That's still a huge help. If the others tried to run now, they'll probably be close to Loeb.
Cause there is already a new record
Imagine when his children are late to school ...
Lemaure44 You mean when they are never late to school?
Imagine if his gf is home alone
I'd stay out of the traffic in any of that moment.
😆
they arent
Lol 250 km/h up a winding mountain road. That takes...confidence.
***** Or maybe he's on of the best driver in the world...?
InfuriatedHawk yeah it takes balls, it dose max out at 241 tho ;)
***** 9 times world champion, it is confidence haha
Klaus Knudsen nice catch.
InfuriatedHawk id be scared to do 100 km/h

Into the shadow realm you go!
Never seen a WRC stage, right?

no they just reenacting something special like good old day.
@@jalpat2272 obviously, doesn't mean it was safe and smart
Me: drives a perfect racing line linking 3 corners "I'm the best"
Loeb: drives a perfect racing line linking 157 corners "not great, not terrible"
Hahahaaa so true!
He did slow down excessively out of caution in a few areas however. I suppose what he considers great, it's if he went flat out one those as well.
those long uphill blind turns, where all you can see is the horizon. fucking terrifying.
CreepinWhileYouSleepin imagine it on dirt
+McMuffinFluffin Imagine? Have you watched Ari Vatanen Pikes Peak in 1988?
I just watched that video! Yikes!!!
Yes but these guys know the track by heart. So it's less frightening than you think.
@@pemujakufaku2031 Oh hell yes! Loose surface everywhere above the tree line and no guard rails for the several hundred foot drops. It's not what it was...

For me, Loeb's the greatest driver ever. I know different types of racing take different skills, but to drive this fast, with this precision is on another level altogether, it's ridiculous.
Röhrl ,Loeb ,Ogier, Rossi,Schumacher,Senna,Lauda !
This is so scary. Even when i play dirt rally, it's still scary af.
6:47 he actually runs out of gears :o
Lmao
No point having a 7th gear, the amount of times you need it isnt worth the extra weight
@@DerKaktusAvant obviously I'm not one of the crazy smart engineers but I almost think it would be worth it, just a lot of extra work
@@toad3222 I've been in the motor trade for almost 10 years and in the rally scene for 5. It ain't worth it for this race
Jack Cowan yea not w all the curves
I like how Loeb just smatches that record by a minute and a half, and yet people are commenting about the altimeter...
it is awful though.
If you are refering to the Ari record it was made on gravel idiot.
Learn to read. 0:13. Rhys Millen record on 2012...on tarmac, no the 1988 Vantanen's gravel record.
Seems like someone else is the idiot.

All of that was irrelevant, you wasted your time and mine, you're wrong just admit it
That spot where he bounces it off the rev limiter for a few seconds in 6th at 241kmh is just wild. Hats off, what an incredible drive.
That V6 + the sound of the gearbox. So satisfying. Great noise
music to our ears!
Sebastien Loeb is the #1 Rally driver in history so far.
Nobody comes close. It will be a while before anyone matches his resume. His skills and precision are out of this world. Professionalism at its best.
A great guy and amazingly humble champion. Simply the best!
+FreedomForce100 Agreed, but Sebastien Ogier is trailing him.
+FreedomForce100 Ari Vatanen
+william mcgregor I like Ari Vatanen. In terms of accomplishment he is far behind Loeb. In fact, everyone is. Loeb is the Michael Jordan of Rally.
+FreedomForce100 One things for sure they're all better than Ken Block who invents a sport then claims to be the best at it Because his not good enough for proper Rallying ;)
+william mcgregor I really don't understand the hate for Ken Block. He tries to promote what he's skilled at and he does it well.
One of the greatest acts of driving I have ever seen. Magnifique.
"And don't forget there's 70% off for the Happy Hour at the Pike Peaks bar, ends in 10 min !"
Loeb : "Ok let's do this"
omg he's going 240kmh on a curvy mountain road with no barriers and death on both sides!.... he's a god
Vaut mieux pas s'rater à certains endroits...
Félicitations à notre champion S.Loeb ,
gars simple qui a réalisé son rêve ..
Et au-delà .....
Beau commentaire
Look at the sequence of acceleration and the moment he did it.... 4:36 until 4:47 Full throttle in a corner with a cliff to his left and in 6th gear! HOLY SHIT! This guy has balls of steel..
+samy29987 He simply is the best racing driver the FIA has ever seen. Everything he enters he either wins or finishes close.
+samy29987 Going > 140mph through that corner, no less...
+samy29987 And he had no co-driver.
He learned all of the corners in his head, he was his own co driver this time around. I noticed plenty of moments where he could have shaved a few tenths off because he wasn't completely sure, so if he did it again he could shave 2-3 seconds off it easily, he did that so much in stage rallying it often times left his opposition baffled.
David M You know how many corners Pikes Peak has? Let alone the grip and handling of his car on each corner, the camber of each corner, the elevation, the gear to be in, and all the details (breaking points, where the cliffs are, etc). It is hard to remember each and every one of those details.
That just elevates his skills as a driver.
I feel I need a helmet just to watch
It's amazing how he manages to be so aggressive and make the drive look relaxed. He was precise and managing the energy so efficiently.
So that's where all the good Peugeot parts went...
rovku yeah... all 5 of them.
if you say that you dont really know what you are talking about
rovku Group B too
implying there are good parts :'D
In Belgium, France and switzerland we have a really bad opinion about Ford, Jeep or other american’s brand, juste because of your really bad quality.
Sébastien Loeb est tellement impressionnant, il excelle sur toutes les surfaces, quelles qu'elles soient et dans n'importe quel type de véhicules, c'est ahurissant !! Il est incroyable de décontraction lorsque qu'il conduit, jamais stressé, jamais déconcentré par quoi que ce soit (on a pu s'en apercevoir en WRC au côté de Daniel Elena). Malgré tout ce qu'il a réalisé et se qu'il réussit encore, malgré ses nombreux records, il reste comme il l'a toujours été, humble et modeste, tout se qu'il fait est normal, presque naturel pour lui ! Ce mec est un exemple, tout simplement...

0:05 Legendary 9-time WRC champion Sébastien Loeb is a perfectionist, neat and tidy driver. He single-handedly changed the way men drive rally cars and dominated a generation. This masterful display of man and machine still stands as the fastest combustion engine stage time and it will likely _never be beaten._
Guess this kind of breaks the stereotype of Peugeot drivers...
+Leon „DrixY“ Erlandsson This car has nothing common with Peogeot stock cars.

I t hink the only part about his car that is pug is the name of it and maybe the look like body shape.
@@NPJGlobal And Clarkson bashed french car just for the english/france "rivality" he knows Renault is one of the biggest f1 manufacturer too
If my Peugeot had to complete a Pikes Peak ascent, I'd need 3 engine rebuilds, a couple of transmissions, 8 sets of pads and rotors.....and a week and a half!
I would need to swap drivers half way through the stage 😂
Very proud with Sebby Loeb & Peugeot Team while seeing this memorial Pikes Peak climb! 🚗🔵⚪🔴🏁!

I don’t care what your wheels are, what racing you’re involved in, this is absolutely one of the most inspirational passes in all of motorsports. Brilliant racecraft by Sebastian and hat’s off to Peugeot for one hell of a car. 2024 and this still raises the hairs on the back of my neck…and I’m bald lol.
His driving style is so smooth! Incredible how few corrections he has to make. Sensational!!
thats one of the most impressive feats of focused in the zone precision vehicle piloting i've ever seen, a true master in his element right there.
Since i was born and raised in Colorado, i have been to the pike peak hill climb event multiple times, even went in 2018 to watch the unlimited class record get stomped. But this run always seems more intense to watch. Ive driven the " pikes peak highway " multiple times in my life, even when the top half wasnt paved, and i couldn't imagine going this fast on this road. Mad skill!
This guy is considered one of the DRIVERS in history. Everything he took on he conquered. Absolutely amazing driver.
wow the spectators are crazy close
erm have you ever seen Group B footage??
This is insane, but I have a feeling that this is the last time we'll see an Internal Combustion Engine have the record for Pikes Peak. After holding the record for almost 5 years, VW just beat it with an Electric car a few hours ago, and by 15 seconds at that.
I guess that's the advantage of not having to suck in air at 4000m
Yeah but it's not a fair comparison. All similarities between the VW EV and the record holders before it are :
- all have 4 wheels
- all use downforce to stick to the road
It's like you're comparing a piston-powered, propeller-driven aircraft to a ramjet :
- both have wings
- both may fly.
Moreover, the tarmac surface is to EV's advantage. Cuz you can put power down efficiently, If it were gravel, propulsion would not have mattered that much.
Since they have made it a full tarmac path, probably to drop the times as much as possible and if this is what is being chased regardless of the means of achievement, then i suggest carefully placed mirrors in every corner and nothing will beat a laser beam to the top...
@@watannen They paved the track because of a lawsuit in the 1990s. They didn't have much choice.
@@watannen Proving the point. IF EVs have an advantage, EVs will be the only sane vehicle to develop. The torque is immediate, unlike ICE cars, and that's a HUGE advantage in a rally or hill-climb. I'd love to see a California Highway 1 rally/race, Leggett to Dana Point (beginning to end.) With all-electric vehicles, the scenic beauty of the coast would be far less impacted, permits would be a lot easier to get and residents less unhappy.
(And the air has a lot more O2...)

Tu me donnes des frissons à chaque fois que je la regarde Seb !!! Tu es incroyable :)
I'm not a huge WRC fan or a Loeb fan but I was looking to the best race drivers in the world and I've come to the conclusion this guy right here is the best race driver of all time. No other driver has won more than 7 championships in any series. Loeb has won 9 championships and his a very high number of race wins. He is un-arguably the greatest rally driver ever and his accomplishments simply are too great to overlook on any scale. Sebastien Loeb is the greatest race driver in history.
The F1 drivers are way better than Loeb.....
hhahahahahha F1 is a joke compared to WRC.
***** 1. F1 cars are the fastest cars in the world.
2. F1 is way more dangerous.
3. There's no cage to protect the F1 drivers.
4. There are pit stops in F1.
5. No WRC driver has ever competed in F1 but numerous F1 drivers have competed in the WRC.
6. In the WRC, the cars play a big role in the drivers' performance as well. Not as much as in F1 though, I admit it.
7. F1 isn't a sport in which the best QUALIFIER wins. It is a sport in which the best RACER wins.
8. Robert Kubica who has competed in both F1 and in the WRC has said that F1 is better.
9. F1 has open cockpits.
10. To compete in F1 you need a Super License. To compete in the WRC you just need a Grade A License.
11. F1 is the pinnacle of motorsport racing.
I think that explains how all the F1 drivers are way better than all the WRC drivers.....
Dimitris AlonsoFerrari
1. F1 cars are faster- on the tracks that they were specially built for. Their suspension setups and ride height make them completely unusable on any sort of slightly bumpy road. In almost any non-purpose-built environment Pikes Peak cars are much, MUCH faster than F1 cars.
2. The chance of getting killed in an accident in F1 is lower than that of NASCAR. This is because the F1 cars are generally moving at a slower pace and they weigh maybe a third of the weight. WRC is also more dangerous because of the unpredictable nature of the roads and the treacherous terrain surrounding the track. You hear about fatal accidents involving trees at 60mph, so imagine one at 90 or 120 mph.
3. The air intake just behind the driver acts as a rollbar in an F1 car. You'll notice that even if most of the rest of the car is strewn everywhere the cowl and tub remain relatively unharmed. This is how they were designed.
4. Pit stops are not innately dangerous, nor do they add to the challenge for drivers. They add strategy for the pit crews, but nothing more.
5. That may be because they have no desire to move up to F1- there are other series they could be in to build up to that. F3 and Star Mazda (if that still exists) come to mind. If they wanted to be in F1 they probably wouldn't be in rallying.
6. That's not entirely the case. The setup is what plays a massive part in the behavior of the car, which changes how the driver must react to adverse conditions. The only time the car itself comes into play is when you use an outdated car.
7. If you knew anything about rallying you'd know that there are no starting grids and by extension no qualifying rounds. You race the stage and whoever gets the best time at the end of the stage has won it. Repeat until all stages are complete, and whoever has the least time is the winner. So the WRC isn't a qualifier's sport either.
8. Unreliable source. A driver's opinion cannot be interpreted as objective fact.
9. Let me restate something- _you are less likely to die in an F1 crash than a NASCAR crash._ It may be open-cockpit but there are many measures to ensure that the driver's head never comes into contact with the ground (and if it does it won't be compressed beyond human ability). Look to IndyCAR for seriously dangerous open-top racing.
10. Who's to say that someone like Loeb couldn't hand one of those back-of-the-pack F1 drivers their own ass? Not all F1 drivers are equally skilled- drivers in other series can have a better understanding of the mechanics than they do, even without the S-license to prove it.
11. Subjective opinions cannot be interpreted as objective facts.

He is the 9 time rally champion. I think tarmac, dirt, snow he will still shatter the time. One of my favourite drivers ever, well done Loeb!
He's not that good at snow, though.
No, he was just the first non-nordic pilot to win the Norway rally...
This Frenchman beat the Scandinavians on their own roads! And he’d never before driven them!

Explain
PedRo Ferreira Debatable but yes rally drivers are some the best in the world.
A legend.
Loeb is easily one of the greatest drivers to ever touch a steering wheel
The greatest
the uphill turns MY GOD that's a constant near death experience
To all the haters, i'm not saying : "Go ahead and try to do it" you can't. But ask everyone who, one day, was the passenger of a great driver (Loeb or another) in a racecar...
And if you think it's "easy" to drive (lol, btw he was faster than the most optimistics computer simulations) don't think only about the car, but also the rugged landscape. At this speed, one mistake or mechanical failure, and imagine what can happend for Loeb (5:58 !!!). Or imagine what can happend for the people around ! Some are Heightened or behind barriers, a lot have no protection, at all.
I notice people talk about how "Bad drivers are in general" but then like 90% of them are contributing to the problems that cause traffic congestion and other accidents; from merging, improper turns, etc... they can barely maintain a 60mph speed. It's kind of like saying you're smart or other things, there's still a difference between dumb people saying everything's easy and parroting what they heard from the real elites who are really good at driving or whatever they do. There's still people who outperform their peers almost in the top 1% percentile and the way they do things is just so different , but it's not a reason to say it's wrong. It's just sad that people cannot humble themselves or say they're average at something, or at least slightly above average, or below average. Driving like this is a lot different and I'd wager that in any true simulation or whatever about the same amount 90-99% would fail it.. you have to perform sharp turns and know how to drive at this speed not to mention have a natural instinct and knowledge of how to perform the turns and other factors while maintaining your speed. It's far different from those road-rage bad drivers who try to duck-and-doge through traffic just to go about 5 miles per hour faster and think they're hardcore when many of the trucks and other vehicles around them who they're cutting off have to accommodate their bad driving habits which causes further problems for everybody.
I always knew this was nuts, but I got a full appreciation of it only after driving up there myself last year. Doing 140 mph or more above the tree line... holy crap, it's even narrower and more exposed up there than the POV makes it look. Absolutely, totally and in all other ways completely insane. Biggest balls on the planet, right up there with the Isle of Mann TT.
TT is more ballsy than this. :)
LOL isle of man rapes this
yep in 4610 meter,isle of man,would be like a small mouse in this mountain i think ,hahahaahahaahahaaha do not compare pls really with isle of man,different world
*****
The TT is on a different level then any other race.
Pike's Peak is deceptive. At the lower levels there are lots of trees and boulders just off the road, that's easy to see. But above the tree line the lack of features makes it difficult to understand from a video how incredibly exposed it is. It's very narrow, inches from the white line are sheer drops many hundreds of feet high, and the winds can be very unpredictable up as you round the shoulders of the mountain at 10,000 to 14,000 feet.
It's different from the Isle of Mann, but it takes the same kind of crazy to race it.
This upshift sound is Just so satisfying
I just wanted to type Sebastien Loeb Pikes peak and this video came as next recommended video! One of the best drivers in the world.
Didn't they make the driving easier with the paddle shifters and whatnot? I remember watching a video with some bloke driving an old school Audi quattro with good old manual transmission and he kept talking about avoiding turbo lag and always keeping it in boost. He had to change gears himself, not lose the turbo boost AND drive round corners like a maniac. That was a real joy to watch.
AND it was mostly on gravel
the olden days! different records and even more fun to see the kraftsmanship, in those days
back when there was a real challange haha
Well that was Walter Röhrl :)
YEah cause a real challenge isnt flying up a hill at 200+km an hour. Mate you're an idiot.
6:49 He gets 241km/h and that's it super short ratio....
His driving is so smooth and precise I forgot he's going that fast lol. Thanks for pointing that out.
When Seb Loeb
hits the rev limiter
it always sends shivers down my back.
French sebastien loeb a real legend alive now 9 world rally champion titles and so impressive what he does .... way better than german shumacher in F1. french have good pilots in car and planes ... congrats to them !!
This french man broke the world record in pike peak for his first meeting here... very good for him !!
I like how the altitude meter doesn't count shit, increases at a constant rate even though there are parts where he's obviously decreasing in altitude.
the same :D
Track length? Or not likely?
+South Manny YG moron
Yes, it's constant regardless of speed too...
it's distance travelled... it clearly slows down when he goes around the 'slower' hairpins...
Amazing how Sebastian Loeb makes this record breaking run look like a sunday drive. This road driving is clearly too easy for a man of his tallents!
Sacre bleu what a proper driver have seen him on many a stage rally well done sir cheers
Man, that engine sounds fantastic!
Amazing. Le pilote le plus talentueux et complet à ce jour pour ma part!
Ce gars est vraiment l'un des meilleurs pilote du monde !mercî Sébastien
MAGNIFICENT DRIVING!
Best I’ve ever seen.
This guy is full throttle in a corner 6 gear 234km/h and a cliff infront of him 4:47 🤯.
if he were to go straigh, he would fly for kilometers down the mountain......
Now try to drive this car in DiRT rally. Impossible.
You just have to be gentle with the throttle in the corners and try not to lock the brakes at all
+William Furniss Whats your best time?
well at the moment it’s shit, but i’m literally trying to beat it right now which is why I searched for Loeb’s run. At the moment it’s 8:11.963 but that’s only after like 3 runs on the tarmac. But I have the 610th best time for the full gravel version of the hillclimb
BunnyTheRabbit UPDATE: Just did an 8:09.463 which I though wasn’t great but it turns out that’s the 70th fastest in the world... And faster than Loeb’s record time
William.... your first time was already faster than Loeb's record. but it don't mean shit cuz there isn't the risk factor of death. you get unlimited retrys, he doesn't. and please explain how 8min11sec is a shit time.
Epic driving and amazing car, amazing skill to maintain that level of focus. Well done too to PeugeotSport for designing a great PP car.
Haha PP car
Astonishing run, I can't believe i'm only just seeing it. Magnificent control of such an aggressive car by Mr. Loeb. What a champion driver, bravo
That’s insane, I would be so terrified even pressing the throttle hard on those roads winding up . Motor sport racers are amazingly skilled.
well done i cant see this record ever being beaten unless someone turns up in a eletric vw
6:47 he actually runs out of gears :o
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Um... About that...
@@TheTattorack hahaha 🤣 that IDR is too quick. Not the biggest fan of electric cars, but I respect the hell out of them from an engineering and performance perspective. Especially in a setting like pikes peak
Something will inevitably trounce the ID.R, and it'll probably use teleportation at this rate
I love the way he depicted his race when he got out of his car. For us it is an incredible record, for him it was just thursday.
Vive la France
Greetings 🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷
Omg 😲
😮
@@l3ogr ptn redbull ta répondu. REDBULL

Me encanta este piloto Sebastián loeb es lo mejor y Peter Solber los amo y el rally el también exitos
That was very interesting. Pretty rapid also. Notice a drop off in his performance nearing the top ? Probably the change in oxygen levels, which Loeb noticed also and changed his pace up a bit more after the slow one. A great ride and a pleasure to travel with him on his run. But Hey! the start was sheer animal ,killer instinct.. Thanks Sebastien Loeb & Red Bull !
This is nice...but...well, it is not as it once was, when the tarmac was all gravel...90 % of it.
A dozen years past (when I taught French in Tex-ass), I ventured there, for to drive a friend-friend's Audi. BUT(T) he never arrived... he got two speeding tickets enroute...became pissed-off & turned back to Oregon.
I remained in the pits for most of the weekend, with a bunch of swell people, talking Hill-climbing in Europe...while we attacked waves of cold bière. By night-fall my ride disappeared and I had to beg a ride back down that mtn. In such situations it is a God sent to have a French accent & cute face...and be well-versed in Savate.
Amélie Renoncule...Ha hahaha, savate for a ride down the mountain.oui oui monsieur?
I'd say the performance dropoff was not wanting to die horribly flying off a cliff at 100 MPH.
18tangles
Diax1324 That is always a possibility but I shared an opinion that also carries some weight with an altitude variation of 4300 metres?
Le talent conjugué avec l efficacité, ça donne Sébastien Loeb
What a pilot!! A true peteolhead. ❤
Il a fracassé le record là 🔥🔥🔥
Respect 🤘
Effectivement, Loeb était vraiment monstrueux. Malheureusement pour lui le record est maintenant détenu par un autre français, Romain Dumas avec la Volswagen IDR en 8min !
@@BouleauTrou555 ils sont de plus en plus performant !! C'est fou
@@nestahsweet5872 L'automobile ne cesse de progresser. On abrite aussi plusieurs générations monstrueuse en rally 🇨🇵. Ya de quoi être fier !
Bien joué Sébastien Loeb ! Il faut avoir un sacré courage pour faire cette course mythique ! Félicitations à toute l'équipe
Tu peux le faire....tu mets une heure 😂😂😂
It's been 9 years since the video came out I still enjoy watching it Sébastien Loeb is my idol.
Without any doubt Sebastien Loeb was one of the best ever rally drivers, amazing car control and always was very very fast but mistake free!
oui quand il n'y a pas d'équipe Allemande
@@hansstrouf Sébastien loeb est le pilote le plus "medaillé" au monde. Tout sport confondu
i have a 208 and I am proud to have this =)
*****
am proud of my old 106 but its still a Peugeot so!! :-D
I guess yours isn't a 875 hp mid-engined 208, lol, that pikes peak edition is nuts, add that fantastic driver and you have one hell of a hard run to beat!
ethel212oasa
I have owned a 106 too. A 1.1 litre with no power steering, had a bit of that hardcore old school feel in it! But this thing then...
The same in nothing but name...
vad1010 well they look like potatoes this car has nothing 208 left in it
Sébastien Loeb is one of the all time great drivers, he is in my top 3:
1 - Ayrton Senna, Amazing talent at driving, Had such a big heart to poverty and children, died for what he loved best. R.I.P
2 - Micheal Schumacher, One of the greatest F1 drivers, won 7 Championships, Big heart and a great role model
3 - Sébastien Loeb, great driver, won 9 championships, dose what he loves the best, never gives up
I'm pretty sure that Colin McRae would smoke the french guy easily.
thaN0s1993
You do realized that McRae and Loeb actually raced each other and were even team mates at citroen in 2003.
The results were pretty self-explanatory really. McRae didnt really have nearly enough consistency to beat Loeb in a race for the championship.
McRae always wanted to push himself and his car to the limit.
I remember his co-driver saying that Colin was unpredictable,
he would either set a new track record or never finish the race.
That's a true racer for me.
i can't really argue with that top 3..
i hated schmacher for a long long time, then respect him, then became a fan, when i realised he was just a computer brained genius behind the wheel. and i hope he makes a recovery from his accident, that is almost unfair for a legend to go out like that.
seb loeb, is a absolute god in a car, WRC..the best ever. went to the x games for a bit of fun, and shoved it up pastrana and ken blocks arse's...walked away with a gold...for fun..
and senna.....i watched his death live and will never forget that moment..the movie on him is heartbreaking..
I would like to give a shout as a brit for richie burns and colin McRae, they were chargers for sure..
and also nigel mansell, i was a big fan of the boring bugger..
won the F1 title, went to america and won the cart series..
i would love to see seb loeb get a legit F1 seat..i know hes tested a lot, god knows why he aint had a shot..
Kovalos McRae wasn't in his prime though, Loeb was coming into his prime years when they were team-mates, Carlos Sainz was the third team-mate and Loeb smoked him because he wasn't in his prime either, but McRae and Sainz were both top, top, top drivers.
Magnificent drive. To say the least. Bravo!
Loeb is arguably the best driver ever.
This is the first time iv watched a full timed run with on board. Fantastic. At 8:26 to the final hairpin, commitment!
Glad you enjoyed it!
