Rovanpera is back full time, he's only taking a small break in 2024. Ogier will always be doing a limited program nowadays since he's practically "retiring" from a full time rally season.
Holy smokes....the first seconds I thought video was sped up but I was wrong. That thing is fast in corners!!!!! BTW, that rattling anti lag sounds nice to be honest.
I would have thought that these 2025 cars are going to slower than last year's where they were running 500+ bhp. Lighter, yes, but still about 130 bhp down and a smaller air restrictor?
How much lighter though? Does anyone know please?? EDIT AI Overview The minimum weight of a 2024 WRC car is 1,230 kg, while the minimum weight of a 2025 WRC car is 1,180 kg: 50kg lighter. Hmm The Peugeot 205 T16 Group B car had a minimum weight of 890 kg and was part of the 2500 cc class in Group B. T16 290kg lighter! "Adding power makes you faster on the straights. Subtracting weight makes you faster everywhere."
205 and other group B cars were absolutely unsafe. Crashing with it would kill you easily. Modern wrc are crazy strong and ensure driver protection really well. I'd rather have 250kg heavier car and keep our drivers alive. Sturdy cars come with weight. But life should not be traded for performance. BTW non hybrid cars are in fact 87kg lighter. @Odysseuss.
@chipattack912 Would you rather hit a tree at 130km/h with a WRC or a group B car ? They did not stop the highly popular group B for nothing. And by the way modern WRC are a lot faster than group B cars except for absolute speed. Even acceleration is better since Traction is vastly superior. The only thing that is missing from group B is engine architecture diversity ...
I want to make a case for hybrid cars in WRC: If they're gonna do hybrid they should have electric and combustion power on either axle, that makes a new technical challenge, hybrid power plays more of a role in controlling the car, and the weight of the prop shaft can be used for the battery/accumulator and motors so there's no weight deficit.

The sound😍😍
Just watch other channels about those session and your audio is a step above when using headphones 👌
Le top avec des écouteurs assourdissant 🎉
J'ai des jbl qui isole un peu du bruit et le son est vraiment cool
J'imagine même pas avec des truc de pro qui coûte une fortune
Seems like they're faster through corners now.
Less weight now that the battery and electric motor is gone
They're 87kg lighter because there is no more hybrid
The Hybrid will continue
@@siviunative5241no, it's gone
@@siviunative5241not they are not
Love the GR Yaris !!! What an awesome little car ❤
NM2255, ItalianSuperCar and you have the best audio recording, thx for sharing with us these beautiful cars sounds
Thanks a lot for the kind comment, dude!
@@19Bozzy92 Cant wait to watch the Monte Carlo 2025
Nice quality!
2:47 This is why static camera are best ! the speed is mind blowing.
No more hybrid?
no more. we've been blessed
Nope!
Screw the hybrid!
The Hybrid will continue
Who said? FIA did a u turn after the manufacturers complained not enough time for testing
Amazing machines. And as usual, this video is an audio delight.
Thank you!
Bozzy sempre al top....👏👏
😉
Exquisite audio, let that snotty wee beast speak for itself. Many thanks
Glad you liked it!
Thank you for doing this!
No worries, it's always a pleasure for me! ;)
These new cars visually look faster around corner and acceleration than last year.
No hybrid there lighter
@@jackvincent3026no, what?
Fantastic,,,
0:59 lanche 🔥👌🏼
Kalle, good luck!!!!
Are Ogier and Rovenpera doing limited program again this season , top video btw ?
Rovanpera is doing full season. Ogier is competing part-time.
Rovanpera is back full time, he's only taking a small break in 2024.
Ogier will always be doing a limited program nowadays since he's practically "retiring" from a full time rally season.

Funny to watch how in some shots he has the driver mirror, while in others not

We are free now... From the terrors of battery and hybrids... And the conscience to care for our environment.... Nice.... :')
THAT ANTILAG THO.....
Alternative technologies are back on menu in 2027. Your excitement is premature.
Atleast for now…
The hybrid not removed,after 2026

It's about the same power to weight ratio

❤👍🏻😉🏁‼️
why don't they run sponsors on the liveries when testing?
because there's no point of having them
Why would sponsors pay for that? There is no TV coverage
Shit, what a nasty-sounding ALS noise right there!
Why this isn’t the number #1 Motorsport shown…

Zero inertia. Good lord
Looks more agile but also a bit slower tbh, ofcourse it doesn't have the push anymore of the hybrid out of the corners.
It's natural

Heck, let the manufacturers themselves have the option to build their own system to showcase their expertise rather than to resort to a spec system.
