My guess is that this wasn't this person's first day running the ring.

If you look further in YouTube this is a video of a pair of R53 MINIs that are running the ring together. It's as good as this video.

Nice post.

Nice post.
He certainly has driven the Nordschleife many times.

I have watch the German one with 2 R53, and at the end behind a Porsche GT3 that is more like doing a Sunday drive.

this one?
