Who else hears “and across the line!” in their mind by Jeremy Clarkson as he crosses the finish?

[JeremiBulakowski]

Damn, the straight section from tyres to the hammerhead actually made me realise what progress happened in automotive industry in the last few years. I remember FXX which felt much slower at this section and now it's just blink of the eye and it has 200km/h. It's so stupendously fast, I cannot even process what's happening on the screen.

The short-shifts to keep traction are well played, Monster car!!!

[IronPsyche]

It's now the fastest road legal car down this track timing.. 1:12:7 beating 991 GT2 RS's 1:13:4

[QuitMC]

Lap time was 1;17.7 because of 5s penalty... 😆

I think the 488 Pista is the modern day spiritual successor to the Ferrari F40. What an amazing beast. Just brutal. Forza Ferrari!

[Mike-]

Nice in car cam view, should show it in the programme itself.

[stereoroid]

Excellent soundtrack too, my compliments to the composers.

[ProjectJamesify]

I'm grateful I wasn't born as a rear tire

[rudolfvanderven]

Look at that speedometer go up to 220 at the start. Utter madness.

[Rayjaywill]

Keep doing the onboard of the laps. Way better perspective of the cars balance, speed, and drivability.

[russellcoight]

Still managed to beat the GT2RS without a huge wing on the back, got the give props to Ferrari for that..

[derbigpr]

The most impressive thing is how it cuts through the massive bump at 200 km/h in the middle of a corner and doesn't get unsettled at all, not even the smallest correction needed.

[Chemical-Sky]

That's a hell lot of talent and practice right there. Applause.

[fnyildirim]

This stig looks busy behind the wheel.

[andreimarasigan]

"Some say that he doesn't brush his teeth when he goes for a lap."
Gosh, Clarkson's antics like this is what I miss.

[IronBroadsword]

That short shift at 0:26 where he takes his hand off the wheel; beautiful!

Stig, “oversteer under throttle. Apply braking”
*brakes while downshifting*
“Oversteer under braking”.

[RamosDominicano]

In my head, I still hear Clarkson narrating all the turns. Still after so much time.

[ridgefrost]

damn I never realized how much work goes into driving fast around a track nd how hard it actually is..
