The cornering speeds weren't bad, but they weren't great either. This is very typical of an intermediate-level driver in a Lotus, it takes more effort to get the most out of it. A driver who can get 80% out of an M2 will probably only manage 60% in an Exige. Given more time to trust the Lotus, most cannot comprehend how late you can brake and how much speed you can carry through corners. If this was a racing series, the Exige would be a category or two above the GT4 and M2CS. Knowing this, I don't blame the driver, it is simply a harder car to drive fast and journalist have little time to learn this. It's like jumping into a single-seater racing car from a sports car, most will lap faster in the sports car because you are unaccustomed to the levels of braking, acceleration and cornering speed. This is the best I can describe it. The driver is more important in a car like the Exige than the others. Don't be fooled, the Exige is on another planet!

how right you are Nevertheless, I would also want to classify the Porsche in the exiga V6 category. The Exige is by no means worlds better than the Porsche, but with several laps the Lotus would stand in front of the Porsche in one expert hand. What is often neglected when comparing Elise's and Exige's: the cars barely have the specified power, mostly far below!
@evansc35804 жыл бұрын
Lotus is harder to drive super fast, hence harder to extract a fast time. Its easier to jump in the other two cars with their sophisticated nanny everything controls plus most journalists are not as used to dealing with analogue cars these days. A race driver would get the best out of an Exige 410. These Exiges are the last of their kind.

Why do all/most of the motorsport-journalist believe, that they are good race or F1 drivers? Reasons: The seat is too far backwards, you can see that during the drive he slip forward to a "better" driving position. Steering-wise we call this "chopping", comes from karting, however this has no place here. To do so, especially before cornering destable the car and makes it nervous. During Rallys this is desirable, on a racetrack it's simply slowing you down, because you losing speed in drifts. Unfortunately, the driver doesn't have a lot of feeling in his right foot, you can hear that on the engine, instead of slowly stepping on the gas, he always hits it hard and leaves the rest to the driver assistance system. In none of the cars, you can't switch off the driver assistance completely, for Porsche (as an example) PSM Off mode and PSM Sport mode, however, during "heavy" braking within the ABS control range, this activates the full stabilizing support of the PSM again - until the brake is released. However the same driver did the test for all cars, so it should be comparable? No, because with the Lotus he drove slower: Come on guys, before a corner during breaking you are shifting EACH gear back? Seriously?

Die Leute werden nur eins "geblendet". Das Potenzial einer 380er schon beeindruckend und auch der Gewichtsvorteil einer 410er gegenüber den beiden Gegnern ist ein weit überlegener Aspekt,der mit Automatik in keinster Weise bei einem Rundrennen, außer durch ein viel höheres Leistungsgewicht oder noch mehr Potential raus geholt werden kann.

Zudem auch im Verschleiss einiges günstiger als die beiden überfressenen, mit Komfort vollgestopften Konkurrenten. Ein wirkliches Männerauto (auch wenn einige Damen damit auch ihre Freude haben)! Nur schade ist die Hotlap mit der Exige alles andere als optimal, da liegen locker 2 Sekunden drin, mit etwas Setupoptimierung auch mehr. Man sieht aber auch daran, dass es Sinn macht mit weniger zufrieden zu sein, so kann man am Feingefühl beim Fahren arbeiten und muss nicht alles der Elektronik überlassen.

@@tankergraffcy Both of those events definitely were mistakes by the driver, if you will. But you'd be surprised. In karting a lot of times a slight oversteer in one corner was faster then no slip angle and a cleaner steering input.

Leider nicht gut gefahren. Zu spät gebremst, zu spät eingelenkt, zu früh aufs Gas beim Kurvenausgang ohne Lenkrad voll ausgerichtet zu haben. Teilweise auch falsche Gangwahl. Danke trotzdem fürs Video. Beim nächsten mal vorher einfach bei der Streckenkunde verbessern. MfG

Not that well driven really so hard to tell as he seems a bit off the pace and not always in the right gear.

You mean during the Exige lap? I have to agree, he was short-shifting constantly and accelerated from painfully low REVs out of Turn 2, 11 and 12....

@@massimilianozeni1848 you clearly haven't drive a 410 nor a 430 cup. The traction out of the curve is mind blowing even in 2nd gear at low speed. A LSD is not mandatory.

@@StartYourEngine it is all relative. It is mind blowing for sure but other cars are now better. And they do that in absolute comfort. I love how the 380 drives but I don't need to over defend Lotus as I love sport cars in general, no matter the brand, and the lotus has the problem I mentioned

I mean seriously guys, not a single person that ever drove or saw a Lotus on a circuit will actually believe this LOL. I love the GT4, but a 380 and probably a 350 as well with a good driver would "kill" it, let alone a 410. The M2 shouldn't even be here. This is hilarious
