Chris Harris and David Coulthard wring out a Mercedes Fintail at the Nürburgring

If there's one thing we've learned from the latest video from Drive, it's that the combination of Chris Harris and David Coulthard will produce some very quotable moments. Take this exchange, for example.

DC: "We are by some way the slowest."
CH: "But we're in a class of three cars, apparently."
DC: "Prepare yourself for third."

The two have been paired together to run a vintage race on the Nürburgring, behind the wheel of a Mercedes-Benz 220SE Fintail, a car with just 120 horsepower that Harris says is, "really good when you're going downhill." Coulthard, meanwhile, explains their predicament on the circuit, saying, "Minis are coming past like Formula One cars on speed." Take a look below for one of the more entertaining videos from Drive - which is saying something - and enjoy the chemistry between DC and Chris Harris.

      David Coulthard has more personality than all of the current F1 field put together.

      Good ol' 'Champagne' Coulthard. Just goes to show how much they sensor themselves in F1.

      He was asking Coulthard and the guy who built it... and not once did he ask about the brakes. That would have been my main concern.

      Minnie Driver sure has let herself go! Mind you, she's a better "driver" than I thought.

      I want to know what Chris's consolation prize was. And I want whichever one he didn't pick.
