that car is so sick!!!

7 sec on such a short track is really really much!

But the Ferrari policy on FXX cars is just stupid..

no Ferrari is n ot stupid, they are making a ton of $$ on this deal.

The all black FXX is so damn awesome... and yeah it's not really fair because it is his own car and he's had plenty of track time with it.

Who cares though.

of course they do..
But I didn`t mean Ferrari is stupid,but I think telling people what to do or not to do with their own cars and people having to be grateful to be allowed to drive their cars is not exactly something to appreciate much..
I`m probably not familiar with this "supercar world",but the customer - company relation is like 180 degrees turned and upside down


anyway..
I loved the part with Schumacher..such a cool guy.
And the drinking pics were quite a funny suprise;)

1:10.7 was the same time as the Caparo T1. The Aston Martin DB9 - S race car did it in 1:12.something. That was a REALLY impressive lap. I was shocked at the corner entry speed and how early and hard he was able to get on the throttle.

It is obvious that Shumi is not The Stig, it was a prank for the FXX lap. For starters, different gloves, and Schumi grips the wheel differently than the Stig, Schumi appears to have longer arms and most importantly, Schumi uses much different lines around the track than the Stig.

Awesome clip. I watched it several times. :D

WTF!?! I missed it. BBC has taken it off the air! I hate that sooooo much. I wanted to see it.

was the fxx on road tyres? the "normal" fxx wouldn't be.. it was amazing episode. in any case.

also agree that schumi is not the stig.. different driving style... his posture was also noticeably different.

so next episode they have no stig again, or schumi doesn't wear a mask? they will say... actually the real stig was orbiting the moon and couldn't make it.. or something like that.... i imagine.

Question now is really the FXX that much faster then the next car or is Schumi that much better then whoever is the current Stig.

and you can download the episode here as one of the members here was so nice to host it:

Hasn't the case already been made that the Stig is a combination of various professional drivers? There never will be one Stig, scheduling is impossible.

The FXX matched the Caparo T1 time. The FXX had to have been on track slicks that were properly heated up. The corner entry speeds were unreal and he got on the throttle early and hard coming out of the corners. The FXX is 800+ hp and would have roasted street tires with that much throttle applied mid corner......
