"He had some problems in the first section, but as you can see now, he's definitely making his way... up... the mountain of Pikes Peak."

Really?

Commentary is really bad. They don't know the finish time. Are the timing guys from the WRC involved?

8'13" apparently.

Hope there is more footage recorded from incar. It was good up until the last quarter.
On the footage of old how come there is more dust flying about? Have they tarmac'd the whole run since those days?

That's a bit of a shame really, the different surfaces made it more entertaining to watch and more testing for the drivers..

Tarmac influenced the huge chunk out of the old times.. As well as Loeb's amazing driving skills of course

Not really, the old time was on Tarmac too. There's an old record - can't remember what it was - from mixed surface, that no one can beat now.

Loeb awesome as ever , question is though, will Peugeot be bringing out a road-going version of that 208 T16?
