This Nissan Tiida commercial from 2007 features a bike race where one of the competitors is obviously struggling and decides to get some help from a support car. It reminded us a little bit of a similar incident in the Vuelta this week.
Although Vincenzo Nibali didn’t actually climb into the Astana team car, his acceleration away from the group was such that he might aswell have.
The advert was created for the launch of the car in Finland with the slogan “Make Yourself Comfortable.” The ad was run at the same time as that year’s Tour, and it was the stunt man Tung Bui who was the star of the film made by TBWA North.
This “Making of” film shows how Bui pulled off the stunt.
