An incredibly different view of the sport...

The WRC season came to a close in the valleys last weekend at the Wales Rally GB where Sebastien Ogier clinched back-to-back World Championships. The win for Ogier was his eight of the season in his Volkswagen as he finished well clear of second placed Jari-Matti Latvala in the overall standings. One of the highlights of the weekend was the use of a thermal camera by the WRC organisers. We know it's a bit nerdy but the result was amazing. They captured Henning Solberg driving past spectators in slow motion and the thermal image it displayed is so cool.
