Here is what goes on in the video: Red Bull Drivers Coulthard, Webber and Loeb meet german drifter Domenik and his 550hp Gymkhana E92 BMW in a parking lot. To proove his skills behind the wheel he mounted a huge matchbox below his huge rearwing and gave the guys a equally huge match. Now all that is left to do is light up the match while drifting.

Of course Sebastien Loeb can't hold it and quickly jumps into the car. Although he claims that "he can't reach the pedals" he quickly gets adjusted to the car and tries the same thing, with Webber being the match holder this time.

What did we learn from this video?
A) Loeb. Give him a bit of seat time and he will race anything on 4 wheels on top level.
B) Webber is cool, DC is a bit of a coward
C) Loeb seems to enjoy drifting quite a lot. I really hope he will think about it as a little side project.

And for all the non-german jalops: english subtitles are available.

RE: C)

Yeah ... he seems to be quite happy with it at thend – maybe he should explore drifting territory a bit more.

Exactly what I thought. In a recent interview after his last WRC rally he mentioned "sliding at high speeds" as the thing he will miss the most. No wonder he enjoyed the bit of drifting.
