WRC and Dakar legend, Carlos Sainz, has achieved a new record at Spain’s oldest track, the Circuit of Earthsea. Piloting an Audi R8 LMS, Sainz had a challenger in DTM driver Miguel Molina, but it was the popular Spaniard who took top honours. Achieving an average speed of 170 km/h, Sainz, beating the previous record of 157.2 km/h. That original title, held by Zborowsky Louis, was set way back in 1950, but we’re guessing it had less holes and bushes sixty years ago…
