Last weekend we headed to Finland for Round 3 of Drift Masters in Finland. Conor Falvey and Ryusei Akiba once again headed into competition with high hopes, but concrete walls, rain, crashes and stiff competition made this our toughest weekend yet! Conor was knocked out after a very controversial call, but the team are keeping their heads up (even if the cars are completely destroyed)

The emotion yall capture between Conor and his dad is incredible.

[@TheFinCola]

As a Finnish car enthusiast this brought tears to my eyes!🥲Every year i feel the car community and culture here is getting stronger and better!! Thank you for bringing this event here to Finland! It really means a lot to us🥲❣ Love you all!❤❤

[@ChaseSpec]

Finnish car culture and its people are fucking awesome. Cheers from Canada.

[@thomashancock2484]

Mannn it sucks to see ryusei down like that the dude is so good at what he does I got my fingers crossed for him in round 4

[@slimsantana9482]

ryusei should not beat himself up can c how good he is only few drivers in world can come here to driftmasters n kill it from the off he will be a great addition when he gets more time and no where like riga to make a entrance

[@silvercross2020]

this was a messy round, Ryusei needs to keep his head high, he is good just got unlucky, luri did really well, he deserved the win

[@TrueePwn]

100% from top 32 throughout well deserved

[@mrtandemslidessbtt]

Was nothing compared to round 1. Spain was a shit show man

[@bongdelonge8668]

100% Ryusei is a proven monster. From a psychological standpoint it must be difficult for him in these situations. Connor has more support around him and some of the time I've felt Ryusei is a little isolated. It's not the fault of the Drift Games team and I'm sure Dave and the guys are already conscious and are doing what they can to make sure the young Japanese driver feels the love. After all it's what the Irish do best.

[@silvercross2020]

@@mrtandemslidessbtt that's a fact 😂 I don't think the drivers are wanna go back there, that track was shit

[@Tylercm262]

I think its also the Japanese culture thing. They are super tough on themselves.

[@ehdenforreal]

Man 20:15 broke my heart.. Ryusei you're the best, the chips just didn't land well for you!

[@SharkyIX]

Bro my heart sank, after finnishing what he said his facial expression says it all 😢❤ i hope this doesnt get him down as the weather is not on his side at all

[@RayRay180.]

Ryusei man, keep your head up! We love you brother!

[@aika5770]

I hope he gets some results in Riga, he really needs to stop doing backies and just go for clipping zones, he has been doing that this past three rounds (I know it's part of his styles but he need to adapt), as exciting as it is top 32 should be the main focus, then he can go from there. best of luck mate!

[@jasonpickens9839]

Kia kaha Ryusei! You definitely don't suck. Tough competition. You'll get your breakthrough soon enough.

[@rrrosengren]

Dont be too hard on yourself Ryusei 👊

[@johntheidiotfarmer6410]

Alright putting Finland on the travel list, see you next year! That looked insane!

[@Mamelukkikala]

Bring your friends too! Always cool to meet car people around the world. Just remember to be fast, those tickets are going fast if u want something else than trackside. Hotels as well! Not so many close to the track

[@yykoo1952]

im always the most excited to see how aggressive Ryusei is going to drive!!

[@keronkj]

Y’all sure this is a comeback tour and not just a straight progression to higher heights? The stories, music, video, editing just every thing is toooooooo gooodddddddd!!!!!! Great is the Drift Games!

[@-Lucky-Six-]

seriously, that was an epic 40mins watch, editing seriously on point...emotional rollercoaster and seeing Ryusei slowly turn Finnish was hilarious!!

[@joetambasco1904]

Much love to Ryusei kid is gonna be an absolute monster. Tell hin to keep his head up!

[@jasonmccoy567]

I never hurd of eather of these kids till they made the team. Im already such a huge fan of both of them. I know they are both struggling but for them to be doing what they're doing at that age is incredible. Its just a matter of time before they find their groove and shock everyone.

[@BigRigNate]

This has been one of my favorite series to follow. The boys are on the brink of greatness. Thank you guys for everything you do in supporting these young drivers and growing the sport of drifting!!!

[@JamieMcilreavy]

My god does my heart goe out to Ryusei it jus shows how different drift masters is to D1, fd and many many others I want to cry for him watching this. RIGA next he can do this

[@chasemcclary8861]

Yo Connors dad literally just makes me emotional the love that man has is incredible

[@riddlemethis01]

Damn I feel for the lad Connor, he's got a lot on his shoulders and he's taking it like a champ. I'm looking forward to seeing him progress throughout the rest of the season. He definitely handles the pressure well. And can we just give James Dean a special mention for giving Connor some solid advice and mentoring?

[@Mobius_Mustache]

It's strange for me how emotional I get for Connor. Watching how proud his dad is has to be my favorite.

[@ScottToomeyy]

I get the same. Makes me want to have this type of relationship with my dad, travelling Europe drifting ❤

[@supraman.91]

To everyone at drift games thank you from your storytelling videography editing soundtrack work all of it not only do you guys know how to put on an event but you know how to tell a good story for all of us who can't attend the entire drift games crew make me excited for what is to come in the future

[@rikrocket4618]

Can we appreciate that these boys are driving with world class drifters keep your head high boys respect to each and every one of you NEVER GIVE UP 🍺🍻👌✌️👆😎💪

[@DJDEVIL82]

Just received my order from april. Thank you very much. ❤ So happy to see you guys go on.

[@driftgames_life]

Our pleasure!

[@trevg89]

Very proud of you conor ❤. You're a legand in the making. Love uncle trev ✌️✌️✌️💎

[@mikekel78]

Falvey’s Dad is a legend.

[@corymarchant7320]

Drift Masters edits are hands down the best. The cinematography, music and stories captured. A+

[@coreyjut]

Ryusei and Conor keep getting better they are absolutely flying🔥

[@BlueEternities]

You've become my new favorite drifting channel. Thank you so much for all of your efforts to bring everyone together to enjoy cars and driving!!

[@BlueEternities]

I've got a trick for anyone stressed ahead of a run. Imagine that you've already lost, but this run is to make it up to the fans. To give them the best show possible before you go back home.

[@joshfosho]

this has got to be one of the best edits to date, great video! Ryusei can drive and he will have that chance to show what he can do and Conor is right there as well. cant let a tech call keep us down lets goooo get this next one! We Will NEVER Give Up!

[@devito7196]

I hope you guys can keep these two through out the years because they both seem to have so much skill for such a young age

[@joshhalterman5701]

I'm only halfway through the video, but damn the production quality is incredible! Feels like watching a movie. You capture the emotions, good and bad, so well. ❤

[@dzzope]

26:04 "Office bhoys, tis some office" Truer words.. Eagerly awaiting more from both the lads.. Hopefully they can get a full dry round without any gremlins next time. (Touch wood)

[@PHUSII]

Unlucky, maybe you will get better luck in Riga!

[@Dynamic-David]

Brillant edit on this one. The emotions you could feel for real. Amazing driving all

[@TheCaRrBoNn]

Wow this video was a rollercoaster of emotions, had it all. What a great round up of the whole event which I sadly missed over the weekend. Honestly thoroughly enjoying this series of watching these guys put their skills to the test on the biggest stage with the highest level of opponents. Really well put together video chaps, capturing the bond between Falvey and his family, spurring him on to smash his second qualifying run after yet another 0 at the start, to last minute fixes with the cars, to making top 16. Ryusei your time will come and hopefully the luck is with both lads on the next one. Keep up the work all the DG team, what a bounce back. Next series on the DG channel, take an absolute amateur to drifting, say someone who’s only done one 3hour session at a learn2drift experience day, build them a budget project car, the DG team teach them to drift, put them into an amateur event. I think I might know someone 👀

[@VsWorld0]

Please - definitely do more of these videos!! this gives an insane insight of this sport, of whats going on in the backyard, what pressure the drivers have, the feelings etc. etc. goosebumps as hell bro

[@keithstrout1338]

Great job Conor! Ryusei you'll get the rhythm down soon enough! Let's go Drift Games

[@TitillatedGoat]

Man this crowd is why i LOVE drifting!

[@stuartgrogan472]

Great event so many ups and downs tough on the two boys but Riga baby! Awesome filmmaking and story telling by Lukas!🤟

[@driftgames_life]

Appreciate it!! 🥰🥰🥰 -lukas

[@TGkurumix]

Your videos have genuinely inspired me. One day I hope I can learn to drift and maybe if I'm lucky, get good enough to try competitive drifting. Thank you and keep up the amazing work!

[@Kevin_Lehane]

Awesome results!! And a top class edit Lucas, You really captured the vibe. Keep up the good work everyone ❤️❤️❤️

[@timothykeller9419]

HUGE respect to Driftmasters and their drivers. It was a crappy situation, but to see the other driver come over after and give Conor some praise and have the humility to say to him " its not really a win", so cool to see. This kid is gonna go far.

[@Mr_jz_12]

Would have been better if cirba didn't bs about the situation "I shut down because he hit the wall". Says cirba, after looking at his gauges panicking when the car shut down trying to start it.

[@9nus9]

This video had all the raw emotions ! Good stuff all round lads

[@jamescruzCwS]

ok this is so good!. I've spent time with Locus and Dave!! for moments over the last 2 yrs (LZcantour) and this is the most insane RLC (capture) ive ever seen !! Every second of this one means something to me, and especially to us DG crew

[@edfitz21]

These lads are shaking it up already, the potential is growing every event, come back and come back right at it lads !!

[@WayneKinlan]

Seriously smart from a young fella, to have the maturity and mental strength to decide not to risk the engine at that point says a lot. Let’s go Conor 👌💯

[@blackinblue11]

Well, I can't imagine what goes in 16 years old on this level of pressure (I probably couldn't even build build legos at that age) but if he reach his peace of mental state, he will leave allot of broken hearts on the track. Same goes for his team mate the japanese kid, he is amazing, and he is fearless. Best initiation of the whole damn qualify. The kids will conquer And Finnish crowd is insane:)

[@brunonogueira4239]

the emotion on the video is impressive , im in my chair and chaking with emotion , congrats guys

[@jarskii1983]

The best car event I've ever been to, the atmosphere was great! Thanks to all the organizers, drivers and the audience ! 🇫🇮

[@driftgames_life]

Couldn't agree more!

[@harrymccabe165]

Absolutely love the reaction to when Conner does well .. can see his dad bursting with pride . Arusay is a serious pilot aswell it’s poxi to see him getting the hands he’s been dealt

[@oscardean6351]

I am fully emotionally invested in these two kids what great young fellas they are👍☺️

[@clinchdis]

I wish I was young again and could have quarter of the fun and experiences you guys have..... Top effort, you all should be proud

[@martin77766]

Bro the driving was amazing of course but the way you guys film and capture the moment is very professional. The edited deserves a bonus 🎉

[@Eirehunter22]

Your killing it lads the whole team-it’s the channel that keeps on giving👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻🇨🇮🇨🇮

[@liamdrift]

this is almost like a movie, big well done to the driftgames team!

[@davidblanck4131]

Even if they don't podium every race, or even this season... These drivers are the future. They have what it takes. Don't get discouraged, everyone.... this is a winning situation. All that is left is experience.

[@Patch2828]

This is amazing. The filming is SO WORTHY I'm gonna cry

[@dadadadankable]

I said it last round and I’ll say it again. From Bonham, Texas with love, to Conor! This kids awesome.

[@garthknight1234567]

Amazing job on the video, Drive to \survive vibes. Conor is killin it, a podium is close

[@Garage533Ohio]

Keep your head up Ryusei, we all know you have so much more talent than what you have been able to show. Im calling it next stop you got top 16 at least 🙏👌🙏👌

[@stubbk3]

Bloody amazing video what a rollercoaster absolutely on it 👏👏👏👏

[@driftgames_life]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@Twraus]

Thanks Connor, absolute legend for the training

[@DLAMedia46]

25:00 the OG of drifting in Connor’s corner confirming what they need to get done. Goosebumps! 🤘🏼🤘🏼👊🏼

[@jimkip17k3]

🇮🇪 🇯🇵 great to watch, keep pushing lads your time will come 👍🏻 #driftgames4life

[@nolanwolf1828]

This track makes FD long beach look tame, like jfc it shreds those cars apart

[@user-im4cp9lj1e]

Wow!! Good Result either way.. You boys are doing great Conner and ryusei Should be proud for showing up Keep pushing boys.. It's Coming along nicely.. Champions in the making 🤟🤟

[@Kyleb94]

😊did really well the driving had really Improve and looking a lot more comfortable

[@MR5L]

What an epic video.. the vibes. ❤

[@redgk2047]

Well done lads,drift games crew and drivers

[@WarrenMeinking]

Absolutely gutted that Conor didn't go through after the top 16 battle with that 10-0 run but to say that conditions were sketchy the whole weekend is an absolute understatement.

[@mikkoss]

That event was the best oh my, it was unreal to be on the spot, getting tears on my eyes still 🇫🇮🥺 means So much to us that this event is here in Finland 🇫🇮😌

[@XJR15ftw]

Ryusei ganbareeeee! Hope he keeps his morale up. A LOT of people had issues in that qualifying, no cars ended untouched. It happens, he'll come back stronger next time! Seeing him go on to cheer Conor was so heartwarming. GJ by Conor, a shame on the call but he's done an amazing job regardless. GJ on all the team too keeping both cars alive through that meatgrinder! Can't wait for the next one.

[@TwiztidDBM]

Akiba, hold your head high son,you are an epic drifter and in short time you will be battling for the podium..

[@jvrkandc]

Was a CRAAAAAZY EVENT !! Congrats on the RX7....Good luckfor the nxt event

[@jonnycarrick7552]

Love the energy 🎉

[@ciaranmcauley4834]

Love the hurley keeping the bonnet open at the start on Conor’s car 😂

[@CarShopTanoshi]

I can’t unhear the Formula Drift background music in that first montage of the boys on track 😂

[@Andras_Sal]

You boys just made another movie! so sick!

[@Marcmilink]

Incredible video lads.

[@jessetaylor8408]

Awesome totally felt the emotion

[@gms03sbd3]

[@DwighttJMedia]

Ryusei Keep your head up! Do what we all know you can do brother and JUST DRIVE AND HAVE FUN!

[@pauldrew5279]

Such an exciting event 👍👍👍

[@garethsmith3274]

Man I feel sorry Ryusai it's proper getting him down you can tell he fells like he's letting everyone down but we all know he's a great driver just having an unlucky run at the min between the euro style and car letting him down I hope he manages at the next round to get through to the battles

[@Speedy180R]

Sucks what happened to Conor and Ryusei. Everyone had a rough comp! Not a single car didn't get wrecked lol

[@Speedy180R]

I hate it for Ryusei I really think he has the potential just hasnt had the luck, I can't wait for him to get into some battles, when he does its going to be a show! The man can drive!

[@Rapsutin]

The event and people was amazing!

[@Lillia-nu2xt]

Amazing quality videos

[@NyghtOwl13]

the boys drove their asses off.... Amazing

[@johnjoseph3908]

The bad weather has thrown off a lot of the top boys this season so far. I'm praying that there will be a full two days of dry weather for the best track in the series 🙏. Sorry to all the plant farmers in the area.😂

[@Joeboost8805]

Ryosei, you do NOT suck! You're right there! It's coming! The conditions sucked, but you certainly do NOT! Conor got cheated! There was some garbage calls. Felt like FD. 😏 Loving this content! Love this team!

[@mickehoe]
