Especially after watching this, I want nothing more than to see Latvala win a title. What a great guy.
well atleast hes the manager of a team now
Lovely. Best bits: the Toivonen shrine, and the fact that he keeps parts from the cars he's crashed.
JML: even more of a nice bloke than I already thought. Which is going it some.
Oh my gosh he's so sweet! one of my favourite rally drivers, really :)
Me too
My favourite rally driver from the world rally championship.
I've been spectating on rallies now since the late 60s right through the GRP4, GRP B and GRP A day's, my favourite cars were always the Ford escorts, Audi Quattros and the classic shape subaru Impreza's. And my favourite drivers were Russel Brooks from here in Britain, Ari Vatenen, Richard burns and Colin Macrea and now its Jari. I go watch more historic rallying these days as I like the old stuff better, but when given the chance I get out on the Rally GB to watch a stage or two.
It´s a great guy, i already took a drive with him in Portugal 2009, 2 days after is big crash, in a BP co-drive prize.
Thanks Latvala !!
All the best for him!
He should do museum of his smashed cars. It would be very popular.
my favorite rally driver
Yes indeed, but it is AE86 GT. It was Jari-Matti´s rallisprint car in years 2000-2002. Sorry my bad english.
One of my vagoyritr drivers on WRC,i even named my son Latvala...(Hifdzi KimiLatvala)...gassspolll
this guy is always having a good,always smiling and never giving up no matter what the problems are he stays optimistics no matter what - and beyond that he is probably the best driver in the WRC after Loeb,even if they say Miko is the ace but i don't think so. Jari Matti got way more than Miko...
good win last week jari wit Toyota :-)
definition of role model=this vid
I love this vid.
Got to love the finnish accent...
This is sooo coool!
very good Matti friends os Brazil - Good Luck
AHH man i loved it Henri Tovienen my idol too! Great fun Jar-!
I would love to see him drive it.
I knew that every modern rally driver has some '80s group B in their collection
Latvala`s Escort still has Rally Estonia sticker on .
Jari is a great driver and a nice person ;) All the best for 2012 WRC !!!! Yeah ;)
KIITOS! Jari-Matti sucha fun guy to be around, however it does seem like he has an obsessive compulsive disorder the way everything is so arranged and neat ahahahaha. NEXT WORLD CHAMPION LATVALA! Young boy doing it bigggg.
Completely awesome, I just love it! Mikko now, pleaseeeee! "Nobody's perfect" hahaha so funny! Great Jari :)
Hoping that he would end the winning spree of France now in 2017 and i think if someone deserves the title it should be Latvala
very nice! do all WRC profiles
best wrc driver.
I wish I was Finnish. 9 year old and rallying? I'm 19 and I still haven't properly driven a car.
Haha I'm from Finland
+adam abu othman Well, it's not usual at all to be a youngster and have rallying as a hobby in here (Finland). As far as I know it's expensive as hell for starters. Jari-Matti's father - as you probably know - is a former rally driver, so, it's not a coincidence that J-M's too. Don't be jealous at all. If you want to sacrifice all your money and properties - off you go, but it most likely doesn't pay off. A second example is Harri Rovanperä's son who has successfully rallied in Baltic countries. I hope that we'll hear of him soon enough, though he's currently only 15 years old.
+serpentchimera Probably lame to answer to one's own comment but I thought this over in a larger picture as I happened to read an article from a local newspaper today concerning upon-mentioned Kalle Rovanperä. It included mention of other "heir" of former Finnish rally champions. Ari Vatanen's, Marcus Grönholm's, Hannu Mikkola's and Markku Aléns sons have also competed in rallying. Legendary Henri Toivonen's father Pauli - legendary as well - was also a driver. And so was Henri's brother Harri. The same thing occurs everywhere. Wasn't it Ayrton Senna's nephew who has competed in the F1's? How about the Villeneuves (Gilles and Jacques)? Graham and Damon Hill? And the list goes on and on. It needs talent, passion and - unfortunate or not - funding.
Anyone else see the AE86 in the background, is that his?
4:40 Like a BOSS
latvala is a boss
Guys , at 2:14 is a photo with henri sitting on a red lancia 037. Does anyone have this photo? I am looking for it about a year now and i cant find it. Help anyone?
Nice. Ein richtiger Spaßvogel wie alle Rally Fahrer.
Me too! I have seen the car in real action once.
Jari- Matti Latvala- World Champion 2012

A Corolla WRC & an ae86, lucky boy

JARI MATTI= GOD !!
Watch out Loeb in 2012 !
Ford Escort MK 2 (O Melhor carro de sempre na história dos ralis)

"everybody has bad moments..." i thought he was gonna show us some outhouse decorated in giant dookie butter stains.
He came close to beating Colin McRaes record of youngest world champion.
go latvala!
win some rallyes
That is the perfect life i dream of.
A toyota ae86?
For some reason I couldn't see loeb doing what he does

@italiano521 I don't think you saw the same rally as I, or you didn't actually seen the rally, just watched the final results!! Latvala, and mikko if weren't the problems they had with the tyres, punctures, engine and suspensions, maybe Ford would kick citroen's ass, Latvala put some best times, and never lost too much time in those he didn't won, apart from the problems they had!!
SO INVESTIGATE BEFORE YOU SAY SHIT!!
