Is it ironic that Renault have used some of the cleverest and up-to-the-minute techniques and technologies to produce a 360º video of one of its most iconic old school animals? Maybe. Regardless, it’s fantastic to get such a brilliant view as this Renault 5 Maxi Turbo takes on the Goodwood Hillclimb with legendary rally driver Jean Ragnotti at the helm.

Video: 360 DEGREE CAMERA – Ride Up The Hill With Jean Ragnotti
Watch as the Maxi tramps up at the start, struggling to put its turbo power down and clattering its rev-limiter before hooking up and slingshotting up the Hillclimb. The fisheye all-round perspective gives a fantastic sense of speed as Ragnotti manages the boost. Keep looking around at the passing spectators and bails, at the front of the resplendent blue Maxi or ahead as it powers up the Hillclimb. What an awesome car and what a fantastic way to record this rabid Maxi Turbo’s pace.
