Driving quickly on a mountain road isn’t just about horsepower or coilovers — it’s about reading the road, understanding your limits, and making smart decisions when things get unpredictable.

In this video, I break down what actually matters when it comes to fast, confident driving on twisty roads. Whether you’re driving a hot hatch, a stock saloon, or anything in between, these techniques will help you get the most out of your car without needing upgrades — or ending up in a ditch.

Visibility – How to read the road ahead using the vanishing point, how trees and terrain give away what’s coming, and why line of sight is your most important tool.

Mindset – Why staying calm and collected will make you faster than chasing lap times or trying to impress your mates. Focus beats ego every time.

Your car – The truth is, most modern cars are more capable than we are. You don’t need big brakes or sticky tires to drive well — just mechanical sympathy and smooth inputs.

Unpredictable moments – From animals in the road to tractors, cyclists, and tourists mid-corner, I talk about how to anticipate and react when things get strange.

“Braking” the law – No, that’s not a typo. I explore the grey areas between spirited driving and outright recklessness, and how to stay on the safe (and legal-ish) side of the line.

Corner types and how to read them – Not every corner is created equal. I explain how to spot tightening radii, late apexes, blind crests, and more — and what they mean for your approach.

If you enjoy backroad blasts or mountain driving but want to improve your technique and confidence, this video is for you. It’s not about racing — it’s about flow, awareness, and driving well.
