Supercar vs Motorbike vs F1 Car | Top Gear Festival Sydney

With help from Mark Webber, Jamie Whincup and Casey Stoner, its time to find out who will win in the battle between motorbike, supercar and Formula 1 car.

"Are motorcycle racers basically insane? "
" Well we do put flammable liquid inside a tank which is on top of a red hot engine. And we keep everything placed between our legs."

Drivers: *Enter a straight*
F1 driver: *Laughs in 18.000 rpm*

[Stryke]

Man I miss that unreal screaming F1 engines ...

[ryangodfrey]

Lol Webber looks like he's trying to go slow at the end.

[Danny]

My favorite part about this entire thing is that that the entire bike and setup cost about $18, 000 USD

[maximilianlindner]

It looks so scripted when all three pass the line at once...

[Porkchop]

The first part of the race where they are all going full out truly shows how crazy fast the F1 cars are.

[kikkilinu]

No sound more beautiful than the sound of an F1 engine. Especially a 90's era F1 engine.

[TGFan]

The race car and motorbike didn't even finish, they still had one more lap to do

[ZohaibAli-sqsx]

Mark webber being the nice guy he is slowed down in the last lap so that he didnt lap them and they could all sort of finish together

[braydenbasil]

Important to note that the bike Stoner is using is a completely bone stock factory Honda Fireblade. You can walk into a Honda Dealership and buy that exact bike for road use. They should have put him on his Repsol GP bike. The other two machines are modified for track use only.

[LucaBonato]

it's not a comparison if you use a pratically stock bike with just a racing exhaust and slick tires. Even the supercar don't have a single thing from the stock one. Use a motogp bike next time ;)

[samharper]

Considering that bike's start, that F1 car overtaking like that on the first corner was borderline disgusting lol

[manfromnantucket]

Not saying I'd have anywhere near the skill to keep up with the bike in the supercar, but even if I did, I'd be terrified of accidentally using the rider as a speed bump or something. The slightest tap could send him off the track and into the morgue.

[SydneySlowRider]

Just goes to show Casey's skills. Doing pretty well on a $20, 000 ride-away stock bike.

[spacepd]

Too bad Stoner wasn't on a real GP bike! The F1 car would have still beaten Stoner, but the GP bike is the right tool for Stoner's profession (like the cars) and would have given the supercar proper competition.

[soulessshadow]

I never at any point doubted the F1 car against the other two. Nothing against the Bike/Stoner or the Supercar/Whincup, but not only is the F1 car light, but it has the power to pull away from the other two and stay there. Smart to give Webber the challenge of lapping Stoner and Whincup. I was more curious about the battle between the Superbike and Supercar.

Edit: It was clearly set up at the end to allow all 3 guy's to cross at the same time, honestly I don't even think Whincup was really pushing the Supercar even though I know those bikes are hella fast(what 205+ mph top speed I think when flat out?) and have crazy accelleration not to mention how little they weight compared to the Supercar

[ObitoUchihaisgay]

4:35 love how they filmed him giving the signal to pass and didnt even react to it, so they could have a photo finish

[pomsforthewin]

Surprised Webbers car made the distance without breaking down....

[dominikvereno]

Formula 1 cars are such magnificent machines
