Porsche GT3 RS @ Nürburgring with Kévin Estre

Yeah, I noticed the first thing he did was hop up a kerb :)

so funny i was also noticing he was a bit off and not as smooth as i expected, and then after he said that he was a lot more focused and on it

[@malachiaadonis8178]

I love how he drives the car flat with no over dramatic oversteer, sideway antics. You can see how stable this Porsche 991.2 911 GT3 RS is at speed. It was a pleasure to watch. Thank You Misha Charoudin and Kevin Estre.

WOW that guy is fast. Not many videos make it to my saved watchlist but this is one of them. Thanks Misha. Now I have commented , I think I will watch it again.

[@boscomoroz326]

Anyone who has ever driven a laser scanned version of Nordschleife in VR will be right at home with this video. Exactly the same, every extra runoff and kerb. And to be fast you have to use it all, which is much easier said than done on a track this long. To do it at speed is a thing of beauty. That was a wonderful example of both driver and car showing exactly how it can be done. As Jeremy Clarkson once said, the difference in drivers like this and the rest of us... we have a 'What if' gene. The focus required to hit every apex and and the laps it takes to even have a clue what the right apex is in the first place, then never have a negative thought cross your mind.... tire blow out, brake failure, suspension failure, something in track from one of the eighty other drivers who definitely don't know it like you do... plus a passenger... dang... impressive.

[@LarsasFarsa]

HOLY PORNSCHE CHANNEL ! Man alive !, just saw this with the sound up high and shouted to my missus to come and watch too! This is beyond epic. The speed he's able to carry though the bends is out of this world as is the braking ! That must rank as one of THE best laps I ever saw ! Can tell you were impressed, Misha, lol. Now added to my 'watch later' folder so I can view when I need a hit of adrenaline fuelled happiness! Thank you so much for this insight to another level of driving by Kevin :) x.

What a lovely lap - I've seen tons of race onboards but very few of a top race driver having fun in a road car on a relatively clear track ( the actual record lap was frightening ). Amazing confidence he has.

[@P1Fanatic]

The speed this guy drives is one thing but to also have a conversation and not even at 100% effort due to running a passenger. I remember doing an AMG track day and near they end thinking I am going pretty fast. Then instructor swaps and does some fast laps and you are back down to earth with a huge reality check. Driving that is so fast it feels out of control yet at the same time fully in control.

[@hunterjumper5892]
