I just hope that was a one way road

There was actually a hoo-ha on SELC*CK about this when it was first posted.... It looks suicidally daft, because it is a normal two-way road, but it's actually not.

You 're only seeing the very restricted veiwing angle from the camera - when you're on the road, you can actually see several corners ahead, as they stretch above you. So, not actually as reckless as it looks

I remember that coming out after Stelvio 03, and I thought exactly the same thing, the commentary would do my head in - I thought it again two years later!

Seen the link and thought is that the one with the really irritating commentary from the burd in the pax seat?

Yes it is !

It may not be as reckless as it looks but there's a few moments that the cars he's passing don't look like they've seen him. I don't think I'll ever do a Stevlio trip in a group like that. I'd much rather do it on my own than have the risk of someone driving like that near me. Whether they or anyone else thinks it's safe isn't the point, it only takes one blind spot to screw it all up.

What a stupid bint - " he hasn't seen you - he hasn't seen you"

Of course he f*cking well hasn't - he's too busy driving fast and trying to keep his own car on the road, never mind some nutter trying to overtake on the corner !

Can't believe a SE visit to Stelvio would be this rubbish....

I thought it looked as if it had been set up????

I can't imagine he'd have had the pace to scalp that many cars, up hill, with that demented chat in his ear.....now wonder he nearly stuffed it...i'd have been trying to drown her out with the exhaust also!

Maybe he'd been told her could trade her in at the top????

Needless to say i killed most of the sound after her first comment.

Does indeed look set up! Not sure about that MPV parked on the corner

The stelvio pass looks ace!
