A couple of weeks back, the FIA World Rallycross Championship rolled into the UK for its second round of 2014, held at the iconic Lydden Hill circuit. With a huge posse of purpose-built, turbocharged, 600hp, four-wheel drive monsters battling it out for supremacy on the part dirt, part tarmac track, things were always going to get pretty wild in the Supercar class, and the World RX of Great Britain didn’t disappoint.

This nicely put together, seven-and-a-half-minute clip gives you a quick insight into rallycross at its new world championship level, and in particular the ‘wildcard’ entries for the British round. Included was USA’s Tanner Foust, who made no bones about labelling it “a vicious battleground.” Hit play and see why.
