Manual cars do that. I do that too. Brake boosting. It makes so much difference for sushi races on highway.

Awesome. I wish I possessed that kind of driving skill.

Drifting an F1 car=automatic win in my book.

I wonder what the traction would have been like with studded snow tires.

It may be a formula 2000 car but it doesn't look like an f1 car. That would be suite to do.

Pretty amazing car control, there's another video somewhere of a F1 car ( BAR/Honda?) with studded tires driving on a frozen lake somewhere.

Exactly! That's what I was talking about lol. Looks like they tried with one set of tires but probably had horrible traction so they grabbed another set of wheels. Funny enough, they look like standard car wheels and tires, i'm wondering if someone pulled them off their car for the video shoot

while the rest of the car manufacturers catch up with daytime running LEDs, Audi is already looking to move on to OLED technology
