I cant remember the time but 0.8 sec seems to be sticking in my mind as the margin of victory. And it would of been much, if the stig was not over driving the BMW, Like he always dose with BM'S. Clackson was saying look how out of shape it was and the stig was having trouble. He was not able to full turn off the tc in the AMG, and was neat a tidy. With the BMW it was fully off, and he was power sliding out of the corners. It looked fun but not the fastest way around the track. People should not read to much into the lap time chart.</p> i’m from the uk and i saw this on sunday the bmw won.

This beast might turn a faster lap than the last M5. As for the AMG, Merc just doesn't do performance like BMW.</p> I’m not surprised the 760iL won the drag race, but I was hoping that they’d take timed laps on the Top Gear Test Track.
