F1 vs. road cars

[PerfAdv]

I remember watching this a few years ago. Many have also probably see it as well. Still, it demonstrates why its non-sensical to compare Formula 1 cars against street legal cars.

McLaren's F1 vs. AMG E-Class vs. A-Class race one lap around Silverstone. It's a staggered start with the "A" leaving first, followed by the "E" fifteen seconds later, and the GP racer leaves 70 seconds after the A-Class.

Who'll come in first?

Didn't TopGear did something similar a few years back with a Cosworth F1 and Johnny Herbert and Colin McRea in a Focus WRC and JC in a Ford Cougar?

Agreed, the CLK DTM AMG to bring up real competition.

very old but lots of funny humor

the GP driver didnt even have 1/2 his gear on when the A class left and was still reading when the Eclass left
