Audi R8 vs Audi S3: Slow Driver vs Fast Driver Track Battle

[@ramz_1520]

We want Rory's time without Jann in the car...🚗😅

[@gsup45]

@@ramz_1520 I was just about to ask whether any of the participants had heard about this phenomenon in racing called vehicle weight.

[@gencnuhiu7357]

Should have left Jann to also race on Audi R8, so the times could be compared on the Audi R8 alone as well. Great video tho 🤌🙏

[@john1703]

and see Rory in the S3. AWD is very useful. The lack of it in the R8 is noticeable.

[@jamesstuart7792]

its so weird seeing this circuit and not having the corners called out as they were named on topgear. Its completely embedded in my subconscious lol

[@jasonc6624]

Auto journalists are often so stiff and boring but people like Rory tiff nedel matt bring vibes and life to there work.keep it up

[@silviasBviewssecondago]

what about mat watson

[@vimtobill4156]

Tiff was a professional race driver. Now I could reel off some of his race record but he is leagues apart from these guys. Journalistic wise? Tiff is not a Journalist. He's more of a race pundit. It's like an ex footballer hosting match of the day. Like Gary Lineker, Saint's and Grevies etc. His life has been around cars. He isn't a Rory who ended up as a Journalist or a Matt Armstrong. Just very different beasts.

[@Car10121-s]

@@mthokonene5093 I checked it at 5.06 in the video. You don’t have to be good at driving a car fast to be a journalist. No going at Rory, I think he’d admit he’s not the best anyhow. Jethro Bovingdon, Chris Harris, Richard Meaden are all very handy journalists behind the wheel for reference. Then racing drivers are at a different league again.

Bro that’s Jann 😭🙏 the Gran Turismo legend

[@RealLaone]

🤣🤣what an ending, trully MARVELlous. Was wondering how will Jan even ask Alex without mentioning weight.

[@Hellcat840]

"someone still has a job! No offence"😂😂😂

[@hlalianoint1651]

🤣🤣That last bit was petty and funny, but I'm here for it!!

[@rahul27benjamin]

Back in the day, supercars used to do these times. A baby Audi S car, not even an RS is doing it today, unbelievable.

[@l33jcm]

Glad that you're still around Rory!

[@chrislegacy4883]

Audis done great work with this S3 other than the badging being removed in the front the car performs really well

[@LJ-wo1wf]

24:50 “It’s Rory. ..Reed!” As if Stig knows more than one Rory… 😂

[@henryhol8538]

I thought they would mention the fact that Rory's Lap had two people in the car. Thus the fastest laps by the two drivers are not comparable! Brilliant video!

[@kabyamtalukdar3066]

Just finished watching the Gran Turismo movie, and now here I am....

[@vimtobill4156]

What rating would you give the film?

[@nigelsview]

Y’all couldn’t have given him a RS3 😂

[@deaks25]

Jann seems like such a nice guy, definitely need him back for more.

[@Ollie2846]

What a great story, I think alot of us have shared his dream. But never been able to make it a reality. Great race!

[@hassan_codes]

The best Audi S3 ad

[@nickboardman3108]

Great watch. As if Rory is a “slow” driver, won my go karting event nearly 20 years ago when an IT journalist 🤣

[@otmarfoehner4578]

I want to see Jann in the R8 as well and learn what he can do in that

[@daenglishpatient]

Rory - love the new strategy, man. It's you guys and Throttle House. Car wow hasn't evolved. 👊

[@walethegreat]

lmfao. that last segment had me in stitches 😭. I find it funny how all athletes even when they're not in an official competition, the competitive side of them always comes out.

[@jermainerobinson7098]

Seems like a nice genuine guy who’s been through some shit but he’s still going well done mate what an inspiration I wish you would ask the guests about there cars they have owned and what is there thought about the car they’re driving and ask them about the cars they have now. It’s a nice show 👏🏽👍🏽🤜🏽🥂

[@05assahse]

Rory & Alex are just in time! Much needed

[@ericmichel3857]

What would have been interesting is to see what sort of time Jann could do in the R8 and Rory in the S3 as well.

[@grahmdoughty]

Cool format. If you do it again it would be cool to hear the pro talk about their approach to driving the slower car (which more of us are more likely to be able to afford). It would also be fun to see them set a time in the fast car for reference

[@Lb.q2]

12:30ish you can see the sweat on her face as she’s beginning to feel motion sickness. If you’ve ever been in a car with a racing driver you know how quickly you feel like this being with them.

[@dicksonmureithi8857]

How will I like this twice?! Good stuff 👌

[@darkbassi5911]

GranTurismo was a great film and even better that it was based on a true story, the CLK GTR crash was epic

The end 😂😂😂

Should've given him a chance in the Audi too as a benchmark!

It would have been amazing to see Jann’s time in the R8!!

[@setunedouche]

That was FANTASTIC!!!!!

[@timmy6012]

Seemed strange not having Jezza doing the voiceover on the Top Gear track. It must be said that modern ‘Hot Hatches‘ sure do shift.

Jann (Mr Gran Turismo) is here😲. Bro that's cool ✨

Dunno why the did away with the S3 badge on the front.

Great episode

i want Jann as my chauffeur, he quick and so chill

[@BlackOnyxC4]

There were definitely some track limits issues, especially from a professional driver. He was just hoping you wouldnt find out 😂

[@ddanci1973]

I always wondered whether they really use a stopwatch (and a phone based / touch screen one at that) to track lap times... If they do, 6 ms is an order of magnitude bellow margin of error.

Audi S3 slow car... I feel embarrassed since my Mazda3 awd hatch only makes 186hp. Maybe a little more since I only use 93 octane and a K&N.

[@magstheonlyone]

What about the lap with the pro-driver on the R8?

[@QuantumS1ngularity]

I wouldn't even dare to try the lap time w/o Alex onboard. If i can't do the time with a gorgeous woman beside me, what is even the point. Instead of asking her to get off, i would've tried to nail the braking and the entry for the 2nd to last. There is an easy 0.5 sec there.

[@martinperry3429]

Great video Rory, having just bought a new S3 Sportback Black Edition, did the car you had in this video have an electric release boot ? I ask because ours despite having the tech pack pro ( which advertises the feature ) ours came without! Audi claim they don’t and website info is incorrect, so we have a dispute with Audi UK re this , we have seen on the internet through auto trader a number of New S3’s (333bhp) with this feature , so they do exist. Any help would be appreciated- thanks, Martin

[@jaredleask6075]

How do you not let Jan do a lap in the R8 as well for comparison 🙈

[@jaymzcheong6582]

should ask Jann to drive the R8 and see what is the lap time

[@alfredtomey]

Isn’t it “star in a reasonably priced car”? But with not so reasonably priced ones this time

[@captainashcam]

Maybe it’s the colour, but the S3 just looks like a regular A3 now. I guess they have to make the RS3 the aggressive-looking one.

[@benjimc1]

S models have always been understated with power. Only the RS models are full race car mode.

[@philipc239]

Why not at Anglesey and a proper stop watch or timing equipment?

Rory is a well as above average driver so I thought he would win by a decent margin and I am sure that in a faster track he would have but that was very revealing, us armchair driving gods have a lot to think about.
