If you click on link and you get the same result then it could be a problem on YouTube for this video. On my computer it plays fine as it is already cached.

It is the source Julian. I've just added another video (from mlittle's collection) and it works fine.

Finally got to see "driving styles" . I am a "Kimi", but then one has to have that style to drive utes quickly. Ah, but what came first, the style or the utes?

If I had to suggest a style I am more like, I am somewhere between Alonso and Michael Schumacher (albeit nowhere near as fast). I trailbrake into corners and pitch it around a bit. Very ugly, indeed!!

I wish Martin had talked about his own natural style and that of Mika Hakkinen who brakes in a straight line never turning in under power (like they teach you in driving school).

This is a cool vid. Thanks for posting it, Ed!
