This Audi R8 Driver Almost Pulled Off The Greatest Nurburgring Save Of All Time

Upon first viewing, it looks like this Audi R8 driver pulled off a spectacular save during a Nordschleife touristenfahrten session, but listen carefully, and it sounds as though there's contact with a barrier just after the car exits the frame...

I think the sound is coming from rocks and mud hitting the barrier

yep true but in the last frames you can hear a more powerful bang, whick most likely is caused by the r8

Not sure if it’s just me or the Video didn’t embed correctly.
Or if the video was never intended to embed.

That was absolutely glorious save… But did he crashed after into the second barrier? Or what was that noise? Rocks?

Looks like Audi drivers are going back to their Quattro rally roots!

The track wasn’t good enough to pull the drift
