I love when you have Philip on! His energy is amazing!

[@J1407b.]

I agree his energy is contagious

[@johnprince5931]

Loving this 'less is more' style of editing. Simple car sounds, ambience of the scene. Gives the viewer the opportunity to immerse themselves in the experience.

[@matthewdawson767]

@Pedro H agreed, I could have watched the whole race!!!

[@robjberman]

Phil is the man! This is some of the best in-car footage I've ever seen!

[@hml_xy9480]

100%

[@sidneygriffiths5737]

200%

[@Driver_88]

We could all do with a friend like Phil in our lives lol

[@sidneygriffiths5737]

Yeah especially if he let's you have a go in his toys lol

[@maximumtheandy]

Phil is easily my favourite guest on this channel. Every time he's on he always brings something insane, has the most infectious laugh and just has a great time!

[@leroynoa1324]

The man has skills!!! Always good times when Phil is around

[@venom5809]

Woohoo Phil is back, we don't have nearly enough of him on the channel. 👏

[@petarninov5257]

Phil is gooooood. The way he prepared those apexes before passing the Maserati was just pure beauty. More content like this Sam.

[@alanzyoutube]

Yeah, the Maserati is a faster car with better aero as well surely?

[@ADAMBLAZEVIC]

And he was pretty good at those long corners, the others were all over the place but he kept a steady line.

[@lavishmctavish4905]

@@alanzyoutube Well... yes... but no... but yes.... but no... They are supposed to be in the same class.

[@napalmhotdog4365]

To be honest, all of these drivers are quite mediocre. Short shifting whole time, not carrying much speed and poor lines most of the time

[@zzz360]

man I miss Phil, good to see you two in a vid again.

[@scalecrawlnl]

Always fun times with upbeat Phil on the channel and what a great round! Well done, awesome STG content variety and Truffle racking up the miles with you, good one Sam👍

[@pauln0371]

Phil is an absolute legend.👍👍👍👍

[@MHeySquiggle]

The best automotive content on the web as per usual. Bravo, Sam!

[@alanzyoutube]

Epic video Sam, you need to get Phil on Behind The Glass, I think Tony & himself would really get on! What other cars does Phil have, I mean does he still have the Senna, Stratos and 911 Rally?

[@ThibauTM]

If I recall correctly, Phil's familly have an insane collection of cars ! And the best part is that they are not affraid of using them. I don't think they sell lots of them. To Phil (if you ever read this) : from the bottom of my hart, THANK YOU for sharing your passion and amazing cars with us !

[@kirkpatrickdavid]

His 360CS in HK sounds outrageous

[@sheriffdeenakinshipo6021]

Amazing, The banter between phil and sam, the race. could watch an hour of this.

[@EconomicsMate1]

The Top Gear episode with the DBR9 being unrevalled springs into mind. Amazing car even by todays standards. "I want it to wipe the floor with Ferrari" - Clarkson. And it sure did

[@gandalfkenobi007]

That intro was gold. Also having Phil back was gold. The energy between you two is always a blast. Loving this content!

[@certifiedbidry]

I remember the top gear episode with the dbr9 and how amazing it sounds. Congrats to Phil

[@stefanedmeades4298]

Wow, Phil certainly knows how to drive. The pass on that MC12 on the start/finish line and then again down into eau rouge was pure class. More of Phil please. Great video

[@millseh]

Its been 6 years since I started watching your content Sam and over the years everything has improved and has been top notch. Your attention to detail in creating content specifically around what you are passionate in has always been a great watch. There is something straight up special about getting thrown into the passenger seat in a DBR9 and watching it get thrashed around Spa. So thank you for just putting the camera there and letting Phil work. Small amounts of editing and just listening purely to that V12 roar really gives those good feels. Its up there to me as some of my favourite videos from you. As always, keep up the great work!

[@bobk3432]

Yes! Phil the Legend always gets a thumbs up. If he is going to do more videos with the DBR, a mirror setup so we can see what’s behind him would be really cool.

[@MrSandseeker]

Thanks for this Sam! Phil is quite a driver,potential winner with more seat time. Love this off the wall content 👍👍👍

[@gf04rce76]

The sound of that engine going through the gears is just awesome wow... incredible car footage 👍😀

[@timbonfield3589]

Everyone needs a Phillip in there life. One of those blokes that could walk in a room and make everything better. Also the guy can realy peddle, there was a moment there where I thought he was attempting two wide through Eau Rouge with that MC20 .

[@dclark7993]

What an absolutely fantastic video. Amazing being able to get an insight into an event like this and a truly epic car, the internal view whilst phillip is racing is awesome. Great content

[@rogerpope6388]

Fantastic to be along for the ride. Phil, absolute legend.

[@raytobing6944]

very fun exciting video with phil! thank you sam & phil! you both amazing!

[@denniswhite9721]

Spa, DBR9, in-car camera, a pass on a MC12... the best episode ever! Kadoorie? A pretty recognizable name!

[@jacoblewis9363]

Phil can drive!! Enjoyed that onboard a lot!! 👏🏼

[@SalomOon01]

Oh my god that was intense! Phil is goood! Incredible inside footage Sam, what a video! I could watch hours of this 🤩

[@jo05dk]

I love that man's energy. I don't know him of course, but he comes across like a fun and lovely human. ..and he did VERY well on a to him unknown track, in a new car, in a new racing series. Kudos. Was fun watching :)

[@apexslider1]

Everyone needs more Philip in their life. Straight up legend.

[@wilsonsou3540]

One of the best onboards I’ve ever seen. One of the best videos on this channel yet, and Phillip is just a very cool and likeable lad. Love the sense of humour when he said “this is lot safer look at all the roll cages😂” top lad

[@Murray_23]

Phill is living the dream!!

[@andrewburns3952]

Great video! I can see why you’re friends with Phil, really nice guy and what a driver! Clearly running a lot of wing as fast on the bends but slower on the straights.

[@argentano8448]

One of the best car contents i've seen in a long time! Your friend knows how to drive for sure! your video is pure joy!

[@tunes4life]

Phil is an absolute animal! Racking up those places, like a proper racing driver! Fair play to him! Loved the vlog and always happy to see cheeky happy Phil anytime...

[@macky0305]

Just two words "Thanks Phil". 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

[@thomasmartin6930]

The on board footage and the sound of that V12. The DBR9 has to be one of the best looking and sounding race cars full stop.

[@nathaneastmure]

This guy is living the dream! This aston is one of my favourite cars to race in forza and spa is one of the best tracks on Earth. Incredible!

[@jaygo8442]

F******g amazing!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥 the gear changes up and down the gears.. the sound of the engine.. the wind noise.. epic!!!!!!!!!

[@hopeland5739]

That sequence with the fight for p3 was just nuts. That was just wonderful. What a fantastic video.

[@darkblueturbo]

Phil is quite the legend. What a brilliant video. Thank you for brightening up what had been a rubbish day :D :D :D

[@raywhite7789]

What a great video. I love the in car pure racing footage and the connect with you on the wall as they passed by. Philip is one heck of a driver. Congratulations to him on a great finish and amazing battles. Sam great video as always. Thanks for keeping me coming back.

[@MrAndy9188]

I like Phil he’s amazing. You can tell he has a lot of money but is so humble with it. The guy can drive for sure he’s amazing. Great content.

[@David_in_Thailand]

Philip is living the dream. But it's my dream! What a car, what great footage on a magnificent track. Awesome sound, beautiful weather, incredible cars.

[@kennethfischer5678]

Phil is a legend. Thanks for taking us along for the ride!

[@jackstein9986]

I always know it’s gonna be a good video when Phil is in it! Always amazing energy.

[@ChildrenofLDN]

What an amazing video Sam. I was at Spa on my 1000cc Aprilia RSV4 last month and it truly is the greatest race track in the world. So fast so challenging in every way. Phil was incredible...the best content Ive seen. Keep it coming mate.

[@TIMSANDYSURF]

What a great video. Blagging your way past the barrier was helped by being in a chocolate brown F type. Phil’s drive was epic. Such fun !

[@MRVSKIN]

Absolutely breathtaking footage. Phil seems like an absolute blast. Would be an honour to meet the man. What a passion

[@mrrs1113]

You 2 are such a great pair of people!! So nice seeing Phil again with a new toy! What a film again Sam!! Thank you ☺

[@mauriceandre4124]

The engine sound is absolutly INSANE !!!!!! THE DEMON IS INSIDE !!!! Thx a lot for that 👍👍👍

[@kilotangodelta]

Sam, seriously epic video. Being "in the car" with full audio, basically uncut then switching to such cool cut aways and on one of my favorite tracks... So amazing! I hope you're coming to Monterrey Car Week. Can get you driving a very special 1 of 1 599 and would love to buy you an espresso!

[@christianb.4385]

My FAVORITE race car of all times. What a V12 sound !

[@noproathlete]

Mate, I just love your videos and content! Not only because of the cars, but all the good vibe you pass through the screen, is just amazing! Philip is another energy, you both have done an amazing "team" when it come to content!

[@pauldmack]

That was brilliant to watch Philip in the car! He's a top guy, full of life 🤩

[@carlgreatrix]

Seriously some of the best in car race footage I have ever watched. Phil is a legend and tremendously talented. Been subscribed to your channel for years, but this footage made me place my first ever comment to your channel as it was soooo good!

[@MartinH_222]

WOW! Just, WOW! Thank you Philip for letting Sam share this!

[@JohnMHazlewood]

Phil can certainly drive thats for sure. What a joy to watch. Great content Sam as usual.

[@joshuawoodford7977]

Great to see Phil back on the channel! Outstanding video and the on board footage was superb!

[@JMossyman]

Superb video Sam 😎 Phil is brilliant - what a driver and what a life he leads! The onboard footage was gripping 🤩

[@Roger_White]

Wow....just wow, well done Philip. Car and your driving looked on point, iRacing helped? :) Another great vid Sam and great camera work being in the car and on the pit wall at the same time ;) .

[@TP-3000]

Best film you’ve ever done. Best car you’ve ever featured. Philip is a legend

[@benmyersracing]

This in car footage is awesome! He is really on it and running well. Such an amazing car!

[@ssully1069]

That was such an amazing video! Seeing the C6R, 996 RSR, MC12, R8 LMS and the DBR9 in both the british racing green and Gulf liveries 🤩. Thanks sam, Keep up the great work!

[@jazdhanoa5701]

Phil is like the biggest G. Casually buys a DBR9, finishes 3rd 2 days before driving like a mad man at Spa. Huge balls

[@nicolasdelva1119]

Phil is such a legend, just as you and your content mate. Never failed to amazed us on the variety of the content ! Thanks a lot

[@THIS_IS_SPARTA666]

When being the friend of the son of one of Hong Kong’s richest family, is obviously really cool! Great vid!

[@AZERTYN222]

Merci Sam (et Philip), tu es le meilleur. Superbe On board !

[@AlanPayne.]

I dont watch every seen trough glass video, but I always see a Phil video, he's the man!

[@Samurai_2029]

Your friend is a legend & drives like a pro to be honest. Plus that shift are truly next level

[@beardedboon]

Yes Phil!! Good to see you back on the channel

[@T.S.T2014]

Your Tavel style video like these are the best, your connections are amazing as well.

[@Bow_Sec]

Honestly… how is this channel not on over a million subs. It’s beyond me…. Great work Sam

[@photographywithalex]

very cool ! and thanks sam for showing so much footage. really enjoyed it!

[@ThibauTM]

Epic video Sam ! Thank you for letting us fully immerse in the amazing sounds of these V12s 🤩 I looked at this race from the grandstands above the Raidillon, and it was the best moment of the whole weekend ! Oh ok, maybe topped by the moment I met you in Phil's stand 😂thank you for your very kind reaction. True gentleman !

[@bennbeardshaw2310]

That on board footage was unreal !! I was nearly in my screen wishing Phil along.. !!

[@markpass4215]

Great driving by Phil…he really deserves to own that car ..Respect..a classy guy with a very interesting family history and astonishing wealth

[@rahulsudhir666]

Always a pleasure to have Phil and his toys on the channel! The guys is a gem. I wish most super/hypercar owners drove their cars as much! The shots of the MC12 reminded me of Joe Macari scarin the shit outta Sam in one of the older videos 🤣 Cool to see the Driftworks Murci GT1 in the background

[@jameshill8711]

At last, some proper racing on your channel. Philip is a legend.

[@kana4114]

Absolutely one of my most favorite videos you’ve done Sam!!! Phil was epic in his driving and your camera work and energy was awesome! Wish you had a post race chat with Phil… I imagine he was pumped!

[@JasonJPWimages]

Wow just wow Sam, amazing video. As a huge Aston Martin fan this was awesome. Phil is a legend- congratulations on P6 👍

[@ozzycool1000]

What a great video honestly, such good vibe and love the pure racing it's awesome

[@chrisdyson5513]

Absolutely fabulous episode. Great opening shots and really exciting racing segment. Well done to Phil and more of this type of content. please.

[@marcinfedyna8806]

Met Philip on Valencia race track when we were testing LMP3 car with Team Virage. He is a great guy, very passionate about cars and racing.

[@Vampirebear13]

Fantastic Sam !!!!!!!! The videos you've done with Phil have ALWAYS been the best !!! And I've said it before many times over the years & I'll say it again... Phil is THEE kind of friend to have 🤩🤩🤩😁😁😎😎😎

[@adampb94]

What incredible driving from Philip. Wow. Intense racing too! Amazing video same...as always

[@carlylekhan7007]

Kindly pass on my Greetings to Phil for taking Us along for the Ride. Definitely more of this. Greetings from Trinidad 🇹🇹

[@rizwanuddin7564]

Well done Sam! Your content is always second to none but the way you documented this story was next level. Very riveting! Your friend is very genuine, and a skillful racer so, wish him continued success. Great job!!

[@jamme1r0]

Yes yes yes!! Love this video and Philip again what a bloody legend! And what a drive!!! Sensational video!

[@andylee-hh3su]

Sat on the sofa with full dolby atmos on for this one.. What a sound, and what a video

[@krissolson7043]

The best part is this shows how much better Phillip is as a driver than the others. His lines were way cleaner than the guys in front of him.

[@BobH809]

Gotta say Sam, Phil is a bloody good driver. Great footage and I was rooting for Phil all the way. Awesome video mate, loved it.

[@tadhgbolen3054]

He's got a lot of room for improvement.

[@BobH809]

@@tadhgbolen3054 Yeah, if he wants to be first. He needs another driver to share the load, maybe an ex-professional who wants to drive just now and again. Besides, you could tell he was having fun, and why not.

[@tedtitmus8900]

I absolutely loved this video way more the most. I was so wound up for your friend ( who has a great personality. I’ve watched a million videos from inside a race, but the way you edited the racing and your driver was perfect. I was absolutely GLUED to the screen. Ted

[@RedC220]

Phil is the real deal. A 21st century playboy that isn't encumbered with the daily nuisance of things like a job. He's living his best life and the best bit is occassionally we get to ride along to. Phil, you rock!

[@alfiemcelhinney3649]

Sam genuinely unreal footage I got butterflies watching that! My god he can drive! Consistently top quality videos 👏🏻 excellent

[@kevinDG7]

That sounds is heaven for your ears. And what a great on board.

[@stalgy4u]

That moment when you realize that the Maserati Phil was battling with is the same guy (and presumably car) that took Sam up the hillclimb stage whilst smoking their cigarette!!

[@johnjoseph911]

Sam I am loving your European wide road trips. This content was off the clock brilliant.

[@tomnutting3836]

Came back for another comment. The berries on Phil 👌👌 what a man and driver he is!!!
