This Audi Can't Escape Its Understeering Fate On The 'Ring
Trying to thread an Audi estate car around the Nordschleife was always going to be tough, especially seeing that they're known to understeer...
Audis are famed for their understeer and this clip shows the perfect example of a front-end washing helplessly wide, culminating in a trip to the gravel and a sickening collision with an armco.
Thankfully the impact was completely side-on so a quick trip to the bodyshop and a precautionery wheel-alignment should see the German wagon back in ship-shape.

Seems more like a mistake from the driver…but yeah all audis understeer like all mustang go crowd-surfing……
WTF not a single scrach.
Quattro doing it’s work.
and your honda would fall apart after a hit like that
Impressive lack of damage.
It seems to be an S4.
Guess quattro won’t get you through.
Nothing will save you if you are incompetent. Let off the throttle, apply a bit of brakes and understeer be gone.
Just looks to me like a very greasy surface, entered the corner too fast. Possibly on “summer” tyres
Heavy, 4wd, bad road tyres, probably an inexperienced driver, wet. Top combo lads.
It’s really not that heavy of a car. Depending on which engine, it could be anywhere between 1370KG and 1500KG.
But still running after the crash, just some scratches.
forget about understeering for now, the car literally hit the wall flew up in the air and came out with not even a scratch WTF !!!
