Foust made mistakes, was penalized and still beat him. Did you even watch the video? Foust's lines were impeccable. The only thing Block did better was keeping his bumper on the stacks of tires, something he's done many times in the hundreds of takes it took to make his gymkhana videos.

Do I? You're saying Ken Block is the only one who can do pinpoint turns and roast the tires in an AWD car? I guarantee that if you give most anyone (myself included) the seat time he has had to perfect his art that his videos could be recreated. He is a marketing genius and knows how to show off, but he lacks racecraft. As a racing enthusiast I would much rather see someone else driving for him and him being the team owner rather than him promoting the douchebaggery he already does.
