WRC Best Jumps

There's never a bad time to watch videos of rally cars flying

There's never a bad time to watch videos of rally cars flying through the air while spectators cheer them on from the sidelines. Even if you don't like cars, you'd be hard pressed not to find some joy in a supercut of fearless drivers tearing over jumps with wild, glorious abandon.

The World Rally Championship just put together this compilation video of some of the best jumps in recent years, and it's exactly what you need right now. Short of actually driving a rally car, you probably don't have anything better to do, so just watch this.

This compilation was put together in celebration for the upcoming Rally Sardegna, which features a huge jump on one of its stages

The world’s longest ever WRC rally jump took place during April’s Rally of Turkey, when Sébastien Loeb's Citroen C4 left terra firma for an incredible 85 metres. The drivers call it getting “big air” and it’s that gravity-defying moment that separates rallying from other forms of motorsport that aim to keep their cars glued to the ground. Other motorsports occasionally see cars in the air, when it’s usually the prequel to a spectacular accident, but in rallying it’s simply the quickest method of getting from point A to point B.
