Volvo 850 BTCC ex Rickard Rydell - Outside Actions & Exclusive On-Board Multicam!

After 5 long years, I've been able to see again a rare Volvo 850 BTCC, specifically ex-official Rickard Rydell model and currently used in competitions. You can't imagine my immense pleasure and joy to put a large number of on-board cameras! I have immensely thanks to the owner and driver Simone Bellucci for the kindness and his group of friends and mechanics who welcomed me and my friend Davide458Italia with great enthusiasm! What about the car? Well, it's the Volvo 850 BTCC that in the hands of Rickard Rydell won 1998 British Touring Car Championship. In 1995 season Rydell made 13 pole position in 24 races! Strangely, the season of the 850 series began in collaboration with TWR in 1994 using the Estate version that behaved fairly well. Since 1995, TWR passed to employ a sedan version with good results until it reaches the BTCC title in 1998. The car is equipped with a 5-cylinder 2 litre engine that develops about 290hp mounted very low and back in the passenger compartment, almost in a central position. 6-speed sequential gearbox and wide use of carbon fibre everywhere. At that time the TWR took part at the F1 championship so you can see a reversal of technology in this Volvo race car. Spectacular the pneumatic lifting system. I want to thanks my friend and KZbinr Davide458 Italia ( / davide458italia ) with whom I collaborated for the video. Enjoy also the exclusive onboard and outside Multicam!
Dopo 5 lunghi anni ho potuto rivedere in azione uno dei rarissimi esemplari di Volvo 850 BTCC, nello specifico ex ufficiale Rickard Rydell ed attualmente impiegato nelle competizioni. Non potete immaginare che piacere e gioia immensa averla potuta filmare con un numero elevato di on-board camera. Ringrazio immensamente il proprietario e pilota Simone Bellucci per l'occasione concessami ed il suo gruppo di amici e meccanici che hanno accolto me e l'amico Davide458Italia con grande affetto. Per quanto riguarda la vettura si tratta appunto della Volvo 850 R BTCC che nelle mani di Rickard Rydell ha vinto nel 1998 il campionato inglese turismo e nella stagione 1995 partì dalla pole su 24 gare! Stranamente la stagione agonistica della serie 850 iniziò grazie alla collaborazione con la TWR nel 1994 utilizzando la variante station-wagon che si comportò discretamente bene. Dal 1995 si passò ad impiegare la versione berlina con buoni risultati fino al raggiungimento del titolo BTCC appunto nel 1998. L'auto è dotata del 5 cilindri di 2.000 CC aspirato portato ad oltre 290 CV, montato molto in basso ed arretrato nell'abitacolo, quasi in posizione centrale. Il cambio è sequenziale 6 marce e potete notare un ampio uso di fibra di carbonio ovunque. All'epoca la TWR correva in Formula 1 e si nota un riversamento di tecnologia in questa vettura. Spettacolare il sistema di sollevamento pneumatico. Ringrazio l'amico e KZbinr Davide458 Italia ( / davide458italia ) con cui ho collaborato per la realizzazione del video, il suo aiuto è stato fondamentale! Godetevi l'esclusivo multicam on-board che ho voluto integrare con le visuali dal cofano motore e dallo scarico unendo gli audio di ogni ripresa per una totale coinvolgimento del suono. Buona visione!

I understand you. The Volvo and all the cars of those years were magnificent: Audi A4, Vectra, Laguna, Accord, S40, etc. The best time for touring cars. I follow the modern TCR championships, but they are light years away from the beauty of the races of the 90s and 2000s

I always liked this car very much; I wouldn't say it was underestimated, in the 90s many of them were sold all over the world. Nowadays, they are little considered as youngtimers; only the T5R seem to interest.

how is it underrated :0? It is the most famous car in BTCC (the wagon version of course whic was later banned obviously for being too quick since it was a wagon lol)- I think its OVER rated almost. Even though I wont lie I do own an 850R >.>.

[@AndorRadnai]

I’d say the first gen V70R is the more underrated one. 850R and second generation V70 R are very much recognised (deservedly so, I must add), but the first gen V70R is seldom talked about. One could compare them to the R32-34 skylines where the middle child so to say is the least talked about one.

[@STG44VOLVO]

[@andrewdrabble8939]

That car needs a more flowing race track with long straights so the driver can really open the taps and let the car do what it was built for. Rickard Rydell became the 1998 BTCC champion with the Volvo S40 though, not the 850. He won races with it granted but not the championship. From what I can remember, the reason TWR switched to the saloon was because the rules had changed to allow front splitters and rear spoilers and the engineers at TWR figured the saloon would be the better choice to use in the campaign

[@antonyaiken]

They had to cut a wedge out of the cylinder head and put an offset spacer in to allow for the required angle of intake runners. Massive amount of work. But it did the trick. Volvo struggled to get more than 240hp at first..... then with the additional wedge, 320+

[@timbo19751975]

Yeah and they didnt cut the wedge out at the combustion chamber face, they did it higher up ! Designing and casting a new head would have been easier and cheaper, but the rules said you had to keep the production head with the valves in the production location !

[@timoschneider7030]

Now that's a touring car! I remember going to brands hatch in 96 as a kid. I'll never forget the sound of those super tourers and hardly believing they were based on my dad's family saloon! BTCC is still good today, but the 90s super touring era was something very special indeed which I'll never forget and always miss!

[@Italiansupercarvideo]

You're right, I talked about this last week with a guy who owns a Volvo 850 and he too, like us, grew up looking at these cars when he was a boy. The 90s and early 2000s were the best times for BTCC, many different cars, all beautiful and competitive, the races were hard-fought, and there were very strong drivers. Today's BTCC is very far from that era; I no longer follow it with the same interest.

[@timoschneider7030]

@@Italiansupercarvideo I agree! I haven't followed it closely since the early 00s when the supertouring era came to an end. It had everything. Masses of factory teams, world class international drivers with characters, simple racing regs and relatively wide open technical regs. Yet it's success was its own demise. Grew too big and expensive for a production car based series and eventually the bubble burst. Pretty sure it will never be seen again, especially nowadays where the automotive and motorsport environments are very different to how they were then, restricted by environmental sustainability, excessive safety and not so much of a consumer market for performance cars. However, despite all of that, I did catch BTCC at Donington last weekend and I have to say the racing was superb and with a very healthy grid! I'm looking forward to the next round!

[@Italiansupercarvideo]

@@timoschneider7030 It's nice to know that your BTCC flame has been lit again since the last race you saw 😉 For the considerations you have written, you find me in agreement, and I could not add more. We were lucky to have grown up with these cars. I'm sorry for the younger ones; they don't know what they missed

Love the sound of touring cars of that era. The turbine smoothness of 5he Volvo the scream of an M3 and then there was the Laguna with its Sodemo modified Renault 16v. WOW. All put through relatively narrow tyres - by today’s standards. These cars were the best an£ nothing since - or - now comes anywhere now - don’t get me started on EV’s and Hybrids - the future my ass!

[@Italiansupercarvideo]

This was the golden era of supertourism, which I followed with great interest and now with great regret. The current TCRs don't have the same charm at all. All the most main manufacturers participated. I'm thinking of the cars: Alfa Romeo 155, Audi A4, BMW 3 series, Opel Vectra, Peugeot 406, Renault Laguna, Volvo 850/S40, Honda Accord, Nissan Primera... it was indeed a magnificent championship with strong drivers 👍

[@R8andGT3Fan]

This makes me realize that we don't have any high revving NA inline five in a road car. All of the "famous" five cylinder engines are turbocharged, and they are lovely in its own way, but a +8k rpm inline five would've been awesome...

[@Italiansupercarvideo]

You're right. We miss these wonderful engines.

[@MrTech1210]

I absolutely LOVE the air intake duct! I suspect this significantly increased power due to its ram air effect?

[@Italiansupercarvideo]

I think your guess is correct 👍

[@bt4291]

Really it’s not a ram air effect with this being a turbo motor. However it is allowing cooler air and more of it on demand which in turn IS more power. If this was a carbureted motor with an air ram then yes at higher speeds it would then force the air into the carb, however the gains from that are an illusion as it’s simply doing the same thing his air duct did, cooler air CLOSER to the valves to be used than hot engine air. That’s why compressed air super chargers haven’t become mainstream. The air is forced behind the butterfly valve and used NO outside air delivering crazy psi/cfm of air at zero or close to and the calibration to regulate motors and fueling from hot to shot is very difficult but the company’s doing it are coming up with 600-900 shots of reliable power ONCE all the bugs are worked out.

[@MrTech1210]

@@bt4291 I don’t believe this engine is turbocharged, it’s an inline 5 2.0l Naturally aspirated engine. You can clearly see the air duct being bolted onto the air filter covering the throttle bodies @ 1:30

[@bt4291]

True that. I’ve never seen a performance Volvo non turbo but I read the requirements for the race bracket. You are 100% correct that turbos were a no no. Fun fact they used the wagon only because Volvo had no sedans and they didn’t wanna wait. So they used the wagon and found they could put more down force on it because of the roof apparently so this vehicle had amazing advantages in the turns and the dude who drove it came from go cart racing so it was a winning team. Thankyou for clarifying that for me.

[@fontheking5]

No, Rickard Rydell won the BTCC in an S40 in 1998. Volvo stopped racing the 850, after the 1996 season. The 850 did race in the BTCC in 1994, 95 and 96. The S40 was raced in 1997, 98 and 99 in the BTCC.

@@nazzgull2822 You're right, great times 👍, Unfortunately, almost all these beautiful middle-class sedans have disappeared at the expense of stupid small SUVs ...

@@Italiansupercarvideo you're right brother....it's an absolute shame. But look on the bright side, those cars have people like us who will forever appreciate their performance & existence and show the younger generation...just like what you're doing here on KZbin and i thank you for that 👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@Italiansupercarvideo]

@@nazzgull2822 'What you say is true, and I am happy that you like my videos 👍 But personally, it's all very sad. Twenty-five years ago, each car had a distinct character; they were different from each other. When I was a boy, when I went to school, I could see the Volvo 850, the Audi A4, the Vectra, the Accords that ran on the street and the weekend on TV I watched the races of all these sedans that challenged each other. It was great because everyday cars, the cars of a family man, I saw them on the track on Sunday (ok, just the bodywork, because we know that the BTCC / WTCC are real racing cars). But for me it was enough, it was beautiful, there was a fan base between one brand and another. Today this is no longer even thinkable. Imagine if we were to see wacky races between cars on stilts or practically the same, perhaps with the same engine (I imagine the Audi-VW-seat mini SUV for example, all with the same engine, the same gearbox, the same suspension ... well, what a sadness. I'm happy to have raised my youth in the 80s-90s and early 2000s. The new generations don't know what they are missing. Furthermore, I suspect that the interests of this racing world are null. Young guys know everything about the last useless smartphones, and they probably don't even know how to drive or have a license and are satisfied with a little VW Up for their travels.

I bought an 850 few days ago with a new re-built motor. I'm gonna tune it and put thousands of dollars into it. Damn this project will be expensive.

[@Italiansupercarvideo]

It looks like a very interesting project. Volvo 850 remains an excellent car 👍

[@KeikoFXDesigns]

I really like the body style it looks like a brick and very solid.

[@Italiansupercarvideo]

I really like it because it reminds the true volvo, both in style and construction.

😂 it's a car that I've always liked, especially the T5R even if it's now difficult to find an example with an acceptable mileage and that does not cost an exorbitant amount.

[@hectorherbert6585]

the BTCC made me want to buy a VOLVO S40 (T4 4cyl 200 hp)but had to wait 1 tear so I bought the V40 (SW) with the T4 engine & sport chassis....still have the car but swapped with the 850 5 cyl motor...(something that Volvo should have done from the start with the S/V 40 series..!!..the V40 has the perfect chassis & balance to hold this great motor....it has been supercharged now with a 'small' ROTREX..and with a proper ECU + TC set-up this FWD beast is excellent on twisty roads...

[@Italiansupercarvideo]

I always liked the Volvo S40, and with the T4 engine, it was a speedy sedan. I agree that if Volvo had put the 5-cylinder of the 850 T5R, it would have created a masterpiece, remembered by enthusiasts, precisely like an Audi RS4. So, if I understand correctly, do you now have a Volvo 850?

[@hectorherbert6585]

@@Italiansupercarvideo no ,actually ,when I reached over 200.000 kms with the T4, I had the opportunity to buy a 5 cyl from a 2001 V70 with much less 'miles'..it was put apart & rebuilt slowly over 2 years (budget!!) with better ,lighter & stronger parts ,like sleeves & pistons ,intake ,intercooler & large cooling rads and fans..fly wheel..etc..it was supposed to stay N/A but after talking to the guys at ROTREX at a car show & expo they offered me to send them over the dyno numbers & motor specifics after rebuild with the stand alone new ECU & TC , and choose for me the perfect supercharger reference to install to stay safe & daily friendly.& quiet line...with a proper Brembo brake kit & Bilstein suspension ,the 1999 Volvo V40 (I call now ,the V40 T5R with around 320 hp on the FWD system (18" & 225) on 4 corners.

I won't be the one to stone you 😂; rest assured, this Volvo sounds great. However, I love Audi's 5-cylinder turbo, and I can't tell you that this engine sounds worse. In my opinion, they are both magnificent.

[@Italiansupercarvideo]

Too expensive for Volvo. The engine of this car was built in collaboration with TWR, which was in F1 from 1992 to 2002

[@TheBsniz]

Sadly that sound will never be replicated on the 850 Turbo or R. The BTCC wouldn't allow them to run the turbo so the race cars are NA.

[@TTURBOVOLVO]

Turbo ones still sound amazing

[@jessewildman1292]

TheBsniz I’m in the process of building an N/A motor in an 850 wagon. Aiming for 300bhp, which is what the TWR 850s made. Going to be building it to rev to at least 9500 rpm, possibly 11k.

[@ilovesheen7446]

TIM turbos sound just as amazing in their own way, much deeper and rumblier specially love the idle of a volvo turbo 5, this is another kinda amazing, very agressive loud insane sound, tho the s1 quattro, but the n/a 5 cylinders are overlooked because of their very average and boring power, but they literally sound like fucking r8s

So nen Volvo C70 mit 5 Zylindern (auf der Bodengruppe des 850) hatte ich vor einigen Jahren auch mal. Dank MR-Sweden Motorsport und SKN Tunig eine echte Rakete. (Laut GPS 280Km/h was vor über 15 Jahren echt schnell war). Nur lange Strecken langsam Fahren war dank eines Supersprint Auspuffs eine Quälerei. (Zu Laut) Durch die Tunnel um den Gardasee oder in den Apuanischen Alpen (Steinbrüche bei Carrara) aber ein Erlebnis, nur nicht für die anderen.

[@Italiansupercarvideo]

Es muss ein außergewöhnliches Auto gewesen sein, ich erinnere mich an dieses Modell, es war praktisch eine Neugestaltung in einem moderneren Schlüssel als der 850.
