I wouldn't expect the Veyron to be fastest, just curious to see what it would do. Seemed awfully fast on the TG track. The Stig had it understeering pretty badly; perhaps Tiff's method of slight drifting (with the ESP off) might help to tighten the line, who knows.
For brakes, the Veyron seems pretty impressive from what I've seen. By Autocar's 0-100-0 stats, it stops faster than the CGT, Enzo, Zonda (S, not F), and Caterham CSR 260. It also did much better than the GT3 RS in C&D's fade resistance tests from 70 mph. Not the same thing as numerous 150-90 stops on a long lap on the 'Ring, but still very surprising results nevertheless. (The GT3 RS's distance grew after each stop, to +27 feet from the first one; the Veyron fluctuated around +/- 2 feet .)
You never saw how much the other cars consume at top speed.
yeah, and you have to hip the damaged/worn one directly to Molsheim.
for high speed breaking, the Veyron has an advantage on some cars, since a big part of the breaking power is generated by the adjustable rear wing, so breaks are not going to be as stressed as on other cars. this without considering the Veyron weights two times the other cars.
for as regards the comparison with the GT3 RS, I suppose the Porsche wasn't equipped with carbo-ceramics breaks.
if it wasn't for the top speed, the Veyron would have been just the ultimate upgrade of a Bentley Continental GT.

On the Nurburgring, MC12 Corse will be faster
It is closer to the racing car.

I'd vote the Zonda F, but for an everyday car I really wouldn't think it would be a practical car to drive about, would be rather interesting but it really isn't that practical, for the fun adrenaline hair on fire excitement, it has to be the Zonda. Cause' James May cannot control that thing at all, lol
