As you might expect of any film that focuses on the exploits of Audi Sport, this video features a number of interesting cars. Audi’s latest film, though, also features a number of interesting stars.
The 13-minute video, titled “Audi Films: Led Balloon,” features Walter Rohrl driving his legendary Quattro S1 Group B rally car, Hans-Joachim Stuck clambering out of an Audi 90 Quattro IMSA GTO, and Doug Demuro being interrupted in the middle of a video shoot featuring a RS 2 Avant.
While DeMuro’s involvement in the video is anything but surprising (he seems like he’d be up for a good time), and even Hans-Joachim Stuck’s involvement in it is just this side of surprising, the thought of being a director and asking the seemingly irascible Walter Rohrl to participate in a water balloon fight actually fills me with anxiety.

The list doesn’t stop there, though. Tom Kristensen shows up in his Audi R18 Le Mans Prototype, Hurley Haywood, also shows up in an IMSA 90 GTO, and there’s a coterie of fine vehicles like the Auto Union Type C, the Audi Sport Quattro, and almost every modern RS car.
“We see the past as a hundred—a thousand—countless moments that led us to this one,” the video explains. “The good times and the less so, blended and blurred by memory’s truth. Let that shape now for the better.”
The video also looks to the future with the autonomous Audi AI:ME as well as a flock of drones coming to deliver water balloons to express the fun of the future (I guess?).
Regardless, the whole video is a fun tour through Audi’s greatest hits and it does seem like it was fun to shoot.
