Can anyone name the watch that the driver was wearing?

 

Pam027 ?

 

"We are, of course, on a private test track. Which just happens to have a village in it"

 

Driving a Mclaren F1 is the equivalent of winning the lottery, and the driver didn't even smile once.

 

The driver would most likely have been the dealer who owns it. It looks like his name is Adam.

And Chris Harris, though I respect him immensely, is extremely stupid for not wearing a seat belt.

 

Or a helmet with all that bare steel tubing

 

He isn't even taking it up to redline...around 4:20 it sounds the craziest and he's shifting right at where the cams are coming on (or at least that's what it sounds like). I can't imagine how batshit crazy it must be to stand on it all the way up shifting through the gears 3-4-5.

I love the driver's game-face. He manages to crack a very nervous smile and glance back at Chris momentarily. It must be so emotionally demanding with all the noise, being careful in traffic with all the hazards of hauling ass on public roads and also having Chris blathering away in your ear.

 

And it not being your car!

 

This Harris video is old. It's got seats now.

 

As has been said above, this video dates back to around June of 2010 before the present owner Andy74B who presides over on Pistonheads bought it.

The driver was one of the dealers at Dick Lovett’s, no names mentioned, and I suspect the video has laid low because certain parties might take exception to what appears to be excessive speed on a public road, not that anything could be proved from that video.

According to Andy74B over on Pistionheads the car is being rebuilt for the summer season, so should be looking pristine soon. Since the video was taken the car has had the seats replaced, the cage removed and seat belts fitted
