As real as it looks, I'm not really sure it is... some of those gaps are simply not big enough and some cars seem to disappear almost immediately when they in reality would still be alongside.... and why is his Lotus twice as fast as all the others ??

If it is real, then I'm gob smacked. bow An F1 team need to sign him up immediately !

That's some superb momentum driving and overtaking, balls of steel. I was never that brave when driving Bathurst on the playstation

Good driving yes. Super human omg I should be totally impressed driving no.

Look at where he is starting. At the back which is where you will also find all the under aggressive noobs. He seems to be a very quick and appropriately aggressive driver so of course dispatches them as if they don't know what they are doing. Which they don't. I don't know the series so he might even be in another class.

But to me looks like a front runner who knows what he is doing, being nice and aggressive and confident on colder tyres and making the backmarker noobs who aren't 100% committed and who aren't as aggressive and confident look as slow as they really are.

I think the A34 north looked a bit busy that day, especially in the begining smile

Have to agree there, pretty quick driving but comparing his entry speeds to others, he obviously knows the mountain well.

It is some great driving for sure but I have seen similar efforts from a certain Boss Cerbera on his youtube channel.

It's what happens when a front row qualifier gets put to the back of the grid for whatever reason (missed scrutineering, car needed attention etc) and then fights its way to where is should be.

Takes nothing away from the blokes that can drive like that tho, especially when in a straight line his car seems slower than the others!
