Best of Nürburgring : Ford Fiesta ST 2019 on wet track (ESP off, Performance package) 

Hamilton drives witj delicacy too

Błażej Wianecki Yeah, I agree completely. I think the car looks very well balanced too. It really rotates and it gives him options, which he uses beautifully.

😂 Well put!

LOL

Really? Then you should watch rally legends like Walter Röhrl. They have driving skills which are not levels but worlds above, what we see here by the fiesta driver! Enjoy :) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-wqREtbLe4sY.html

I bet you don't know Fujiwara Takumi

@@davidlin2185 Thats a character that doesnt exist

Or rain?

@@albandb9366 it was a joke.

@@albandb9366 Rain on a layer of rubber and oil.

Yeah he really looks like him 😂 But he drives even better than he plays soccer.

I was thinking the same thing. One thing I like about this car is that it pivots under the driver so he can feel when the back end steps out a lot more easily.

😅

sparkplug964 - think it has been Revo’d and miltek’ed

@@Jdownesuk No it's completely stock

Plein de journalistes le disent et je partage leur avis, mon seul regret, et encore seulement au niveau de la sonorité, c'est que ce soit un 3 cylindres, la cerise sur le gâteau c'est le prix, elle coute autant qu une simple clio ou 208 haut de gamme qui ne depassent pas 130ch et limite moins chère qu une polo avec toutes ses options, hallucinant!! Si j'en avais le budget je me ruerais vers le concessionnaire Ford le plus proche

Jérémy Lajourard c’est pas une impression, elle domine ses rivales depuis sa sortie.

@@tony973 la clio trophy à le record pour une citadine

Amyot Laurence et ? Ford a bien compris que ça ne sert à rien de donner un temps au nurb, à part pour faire du marketing...la fiesta n’a pas besoin de ça

@@samjinchuriki6980 Je trouve la sonorité pas si dégueu' que ça justement par rapport à ses concurrentes, malgré le 3 cylindres.

Take one for a drive, they're pretty fun even on dry pavement. Just enter a corner fairly hot, keep slightly on the gas while you turn in with a little aggression and lift off the throttle as you apex. The back end will slip around quickly and as soon as you're back onto throttle it settles right back in.

Not sure about the track times, from other videos it seems very possible to keep the car in line.

That's why the Focus ST isn't aiming for lap times, like what Honda did. Ford tune it for fun.

@@jannadrielcervo7753 New Focus ST is faster than Civic type R. Just watched the test yesterday. But it's in slovak language.

@@TheSoundzUK How do you like golf R after owning so many fiestas? Do you have mk7 DSG?

Those aren't power anything

Pour avoir l'ancienne génération juste en version sport 134 cv c'est exactement la même chose au début ça surprend mais on sy habitue vite et c'est un réel régal

Ça je confirme, sur les anciennes fiesta et focus st c'était déjà le cas 👍

@@kevincupra300st5 exact ça rappel la 206 s16 en un peu plus safe

@@mrfabienlol oui c'est le même genre, très bon train avant et arrière qui enroule bien on va dire :p

Après la piste est froide et très mouillé, on voit que personne ne roule très vite, je penses que même si l'ESP est activé, tu pars quand même la

Good choices for sure ! Have you ever seen our Nürburgring lap with the Toyota GR86 ? 😉 ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-rUxbL7dgaDU.html

@@largus I've seen 2 minutes ago! Impressive. I'm scared only viewing the video. I drift the GT86 but at 30-50 km not at 150. Impressive! How is the GR86? I have the gt86 2000 200 cv. The GR86 is 2400. So strange in years when the downsize is the default. Like the fiesta or the yaris GR. I think the the gr86 will be the last pure great petrol affordable car.

@@lensoprezole5322 c'est surtout le pilote qui ne gère pas sa prop sous la pluie, mais pour sa défense ça a l'air particulièrement casse gueule la 😅

@@mrfabienlol C'est une voiture de location, peut-être sa première fois en prop :)

@@mrfabienlol tout le monde n'a pas ton talent!

É o que eu pensei. Impresionante como ele joga com as inercias do carro para forçar a saida da traseira. Muito bom piloto!

If you drive any Fiesta you will understand!

the fiesta have the better handling in this category.... is very safe ... see the speedometer when he slides ... for wet road this speed is very match... and see the car how smooth slide and how smooth return to road and remeber this.. all electronic are disable!!!! beleave me this car doesn't need skills to get it back on the road wheen slide.... if you want to understand the speed look other cars how slow are go and look on 5:30 the bmw how easy slide and how hard are return to road... sorry for my english! im from greece.... cheers!!!!!

Yes basically all the turns are taken under 100 km/h and the slides occur while releasing the throttle, wich is a normal phenomenon when your are searching a better mobility from the rear train... what is a god point is while braking phasis : it is always stable with no reaction in the steering wheel, which means that when in line, the rear train keeps stable. But as soon as you maintain even a very light pressure on the brake pedal AND you start to turn the steering wheel, the oversteer begins (normal too, when you are searching to oversteer !). Yes at these speeds here, relatively progressively. But handled with normal daily drivers please let recognize that this will lead to very hot situations. This car is perfect for learning in tricky conditions. Or for fun when you are a minimum skilled and used to it. But not a car to leave to young people on legal roads. Legal roads are not for learning how to drift. They are for sharing mobility : mobility of people, not mobility of the rear train ! Please do not be confused : I LOVE this car and the way it has been setting up. Seems very closed to the handle of former Focus RS wich I better now (I still did not drive this new fiesta st). It remains me my very former e36 M3. Easy to manage on “gras-mouillė” on the track. Too rare, so precious. But to dedicate to drivers who knows : not too young ones with whom you share the road every morning...
