Watch The World's Luckiest Biker Cheat 'Death By Understeering Audi'

Lies. DAMNED LIES

Audis are known for several things. Possessing the second most unpopular drivers. Gorgeous interiors. Big grilles. Quattro all-wheel drive. Ridiculous options list prices. And understeer. Oh yes, they might have awesome all-weather ability, endless rally heritage, and crackers acceleration times, but pretty much any petrolhead will at some point give an Audi a kicking for understeer. Grip, grip, grip, front-end push, wheel-twirling, slide, crash, hospital. That's kind of how it goes. Best to sit back in your lovely cabin and take things more leisurely.

Someone should've told that to the driver of the Audi A7 you're about to see on the video below. Clearly mashing the loud pedal on a twisty hilltop road, this near-two tonne A7 is being driven like a hot hatch, and understeers so far off the apex it almost takes out a quick-thinking biker. This is an insanely close call.

At least if the guy had an M5 he'd have been caught on helmet cam popping an awesome third-gear powerslide instead...
