Thanks for posting.

[SatanVsJesus]

Were they expecting different results?

[justaddwada]

OMFG!!! The F1 actually WON?!?!?!?!














lame

[Aindriu]

Geez I'd really like to catch a beer with some of you guys

[FauxFox]

Not really a race.

Formula 1 makes normal cars look like geo metros.

[KenAllen08]

Wanna know how I won against a BMW F1 in ONE lap?

I think the whole point of the video was more of comparison between F1 and road car performance rather than a real race (which any 3 year old can tell it's no contest). Obviously, even a top end road going sports car like the m5 has to make compromises in areas of safety, fuel efficiency and emissions regulation, things that are of less concern for a pure racing machine like a F1 car. If you have to make less compromises, then of course your car's peformance can be leaps and bounds ahead of a road car. This whole demonstration was to show what it is like to have uncompromised performance.

Finally someone who actually gets whats going on in the video.

Ill use any excuse to listen to an F1 car!!

I appreciated this video. Often times, brands with brag about the incorporation of F1-inspired technology and performance. But, this really shows you how far you are from the real deal.

I like the one where the 3 cars race an f1 car that has like djdbdbdhdh dost ant it catches hp to them and passes them for threjnp

[330fly]

Awesome to see them up against each other. It would be a once in a lifetime experience to drive an F1 car. Something I doubt I'll ever have the chance to do. The sounds that those things make are phenomenal. I would love to make it out to an F1 race sometime and actually hear those cars in person.

[Nick6]

An e36 would have taken the F1 car.

[borealiss]

it's no e30.

[mryakan]

That show is dumb and so was this race or whatever you want to call it. Whatever they are trying to prove is seen in every race when the safety car comes out, so I am not sure what breakthrough information they expected to find here. Just a publicity stunt I guess, but a dumb one at that.

[Aindriu]

You guys whinge soooo much. Who cares if it's a no brainer? It's cool to watch. I bet if any of you had the chance to race you road car against an F1 you'd all be on here "Omgz I raced my E36 against a F1 car and if I hads teh 10 more horsepower I wouldda had him!"

[crazy0000]

you mean, the same horsepower but just about 10,000 more rpms haha
