Bugatti Chiron Super Sport vs WET Nurburgring + 211mph on the Autobahn. Worst idea ever? | Top Gear

What would you do if you had one day with the 1600bhp Bugatti Chiron Super Sport? We picked one up from the factory in Molsheim, headed straight into Germany, blasted up the derestricted Autobahn at 211mph and then drove around the Nurburgring in extremely heavy rain... during a tourist session. Top Gear has done some stupid stuff in its time, but this might just take the biscuit.

Not jealous at all. Andy is a great human to hang out with, let alone drive together!

[MatWatsonCars]

Can't believe there was only a 1mph difference between our top speeds in that car. Not sure I would have made your save tho👏👏👏

[thedriversseat]

Jack is a proper hero for keeping that away from the walls after that snap

[HiddenWen]

Can you imagine how awesome it was for everyone else in the ring who saw this? Terrifying as well too, since no one wants to risk even coming close to crashing into this.

[maxli]

That poor guy in the BMW. Just imagine driving round the Nurburgring and there's a Bugatti on your tail. That must have been terrifying

[GauravMishra]

Jack and Chris are the only ones who are keeping this top gear alive.

No touch screens, it gets my vote on that point alone.
Genuinely very nervous on the ring bit.

[urock]

As much as I miss seeing CH do this type of content, it can't be denied that Jack and the production team did a great job with this. Well shot, well edited and well presented.

[Insomniac]

I like this top gear. You guys are finding that soul again. A different soul, but non the less a soul.

[rahulmmo]

The last shot of the car traveling through the Ring in the mist was stunning. Great thinking to capture that mood.

[aidan]

Damn he wasn't lying about no grip 😳

[Fiorano-cibh]

Love the enthusiasm and the honesty - the car is smaller in the flesh than it looks and it’s growing on me …no screen inside helps 😃

[smokeymotorsport]

That was a proper pants-filling moment, well saved. Got to stay off the dry line in that weather, even with 150hp let alone 1500hp. I did a couple of laps in that moistness in my old E39 M5 and it was more than scary enough for me. Well done going out at all!

[ImBarryScottCSS]

Credit to Bugatti for letting you do this, but you've made certain they will never do so again.

[MafiaboysWorld]

I think all of us puckered up when Jack almost lost it. 😳😬

[zafurchio]

A 1.600 hp car in an unknown very wet 22 km long track, what could go wrong?

[Dudleymiddleton]

Good to see Andy Wallace! The cool, calm narration during that mclaren 240+mph run is true professional!

[luvzangetsu]

Holy Shit, Jack saved that slide like a boss, that was nerve wracking!

[buff]

them reflexes at 9:37

very nice driving

[Zzutubez]

Imagine being Andy and trusting your life, job and a 3mill+ Bugatti in the hands of a novice driver with 1600bhp under his foot on a soaking wet Nurburgring. Balls of steel lol
