Caterham Veritas RS3 Supercar Review & Stig Lap | Top Gear

[@iangutierrez643]

Finally a car that racing games haven't shown to me

[@charliepolledri452]

Not yet

[@PLK123]

Hehe, im bouta show the world

[@KepleroGT]

Driveclub has showed me plenty of weird unknown cars

[@XRunner2628]

R.I.P top gear, best show on the planet

[@creamatedbiscuit4756]

I agree. It will be missed, hopefully the Amazon show will be good

u just let me search it, and its Beautiful mate.

[@zsmith2100]

Oh yeah

[@dragomirmrkic7101]

Stirling Moss SLR looks like Veritas RS3

[@FAT8893]

It does look like it, but the Veritas came earlier than the Stirling Moss SLR.

[@Blackknight-nl4dl]

The Stig looks good in that car.

[@lucianene7741]

I don't know how good is it to drive but it certainly deserves a design award. Incredibly sleek and fast-looking body, engine between seats and above all that evil grin front grille, almost human. Very original.

[@AndorRadnai]

It’s filmed at about three pixels, yet the videography is astounding!

[@wv2100]

0:58 the FPS matches the rotation of the wheels, so it looks like they aren’t moving

[@pavementfilms2048]

I thought I was crazy

[@sethellis7615]

Already been said

[@BAMeynig]

the aesthetic quality of the videography is phenomenal. one of the main reasons i love top gear.

[@VoodooGypsy]

gotta love Top Gear's presentation. love the high speed cameras.

[@benracer]

Hammond retracts his comment after hearing that Clarkson's wife has one.

[@yannikoloff7659]

But I support dweeb part. I am a dweeb, a happy dweeb

[@axnn1]

Yan Nikoloff What?

[@tannerjacobsen5883]

0:57 the wheels look like they aren't moving

[@avarmauk]

The spinning of the wheel is in sync with the camera frames per second. So it looks like its stationary.

[@themistaken9571]

Tanner Jacobsen it's actually the first hover car

[@123fourfive5]

Time it takes for wheels to do one rotation is the same speed as the camera takes to capture one frame of the video.

[@TinyBearTim]

1 2 3 Four Five somebody already said that and you must be fun at partys

[@123fourfive5]

[@andrewpliagas9213]

If the Veritas was actually fitted with the S65 V8 from the E92 M3, then the Top Gear crew were instructed to short-shift it for this segment; neither Hammond nor Stig were working it anywhere near the 8,400 RPM redline.

[@Butters_Stunts]

Did they lower the rev limiter then?

[@KR4K40]

0:58 what were the odds of the wheels turning exactly the same rate as the camera takes pictures?

[@yammmit]

probably pretty high since it happens quite often in films

[@markm0000]

The guys filming this really know their stuff. The camera shutter closes every time the wheel makes one rotation.

[@thememers_dude]

1:00 when the rims are in perfect sync with the camera shutterspeed

[@sethellis7615]

Already been said

[@yammmit]

about 100 people said this years before you so I think it’s been acknowledged already

[@PhotosByHamza]

Thank you BBC for bringing Top Gear to KZbin! Best car show EVER!

[@Borderline5440]

One of the most beautiful cars ever made. The wheels by themselves are a work of art.

[@revolver265]

I'm turned off by the excessive holes and polish that kinda make it look more like there's ridiculous amounts of exposed hardware. I'm more a fan of flush, clean-chic designs that have at most a number of nuts around the edges, so the wheels look rather emmentaler to me.

[@jjames1197]

One word, clown 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡.

[@derin111]

Looks silly

[@The_Drewski]

Everyone has to love that true v8 sound

[@harrisons62]

Yeah hopefully they don’t stop making them :(

[@spirovarelis9637]

0:10 Same sound they use for the teleporter in TF2.

[@ClarinoI]

Caterham in the title, shows nothing at all of the Caterham and focuses entirely on the Veritas.

[@tonyb9735]

I came here for the Caterham too.

[@Baskentli]

1:01 The back wheel looks like it is stopped:D SOOOO COOOOLL.

[@SirRoxen]

That lap looked slow as hell, I'm really surpised it was as quick as it was.

[@adognamedsight..]

It looks like a space ship . Love it

[@LeeePowers]

Remind me of the Miata Monopsto. Who remembers that one?

[@OmicronChan]

shutter speed is for photographic still cameras.... Frame per second is for video formats and how many images are recorded per second by the sensor. FPS should be the correct term here. Shutter speed is in fractions of seconds ie. 1/100.

[@DaytonaPrototypes]

James: You say if you drive this you look a dweeb. Richard: Yes. James: You know Jeremy's wife has one of these. Very fond of it. Big fan. She's here today actually.

[@PLK123]

0:59 the speed of the wheels are the same as the camera shutter

[@dopplerfox]

0:59 - Wheels RPM matches the shutter speed! It doesn’t look like they’re moving!

[@dopplerfox]

Dave Pawson - Just had a look at wheel spinners at a red light, definable a problem with that!

[@sethellis7615]

[@Tekrothebountyhunter]

Eh, I think this car would look better if it had an actual driver and passanger area rather than that tiny little cubby hole for the driver.

[@druidofthefang]

I completely disagree, I think it looks superb with the 2 separate seats like it is

[@user-yv1bf4rx7r]

That's not the point of it

[@TinyBearTim]

Adelan L wut

[@user-yv1bf4rx7r]

@@TinyBearTim it's supposed to look like that. It's styled after very old single seat racecars

[@TinyBearTim]

Adelan L yes but they looked good and not stretched with messed up proportions

[@MTFDarkEagle]

its because the rpm perfectly matches of the frames per second recording of the camera they used

[@AutoPassionist]

"german precision" -the steeringwheel isn't straight but okey

[@gladwinjoseph7686]

looks like a Mercedes-Benz Striling Mos .

[@gladwinjoseph7686]

Sorry. Stirling Moss

[@jxtaposed]

@Mein Schwanz ist kaputt It's 6 years old....Editing wasn't a thing back then.

[@BrianKongXD]

1:00 i know it is because of the refreshing rate of the camera but those wheels not moving while the car is like hovering looks cool

[@turboman69]

they changed the music at the begining from "such great heights" to some random song. I liked that song!

[@Ramsystem101]

god the sound of that engine just makes me smile :D

[@dude2106]

The veritas just looks amazing! A bit special yeah, but that's what i like about it. I can't imagine any car that looks like this. And the sound is fantastic!

[@jackmcdonald8355]

8:16 " Some say, that one of his legs gets longer when he sees a pretty lady. And that I haven't done one of these for some time and I forgot to make up a second thing. All we know is, hes called The Stig."

[@38KTMracer]

its because the camera is caturing frames at the same speed at the wheel are moving, so whenever the camera captures a fram the rim is in the same spot

[@mecate818]

Caterham got rid of the dank 420 horsepower to 473 normal horsepower

[@chrisisbest04]

0:06 that is an amazing sight. Oh yeah the car is cool aswell.

[@stankfanger1366]

If I had the money for that car it would be pregnant before I got it into third gear for the first time.

hahahhhaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

[@kikufutaba1194]

@Geoff Peterson It is beautiful

[@lordcegese1385]

Geoff Peterson literally looks like a fish

[@MichaelApodaca]

Haha, is it just me or does Hammond sound just like Austin Powers well driving that car!?! Especially at 1:32 "Whoaaa, where have I felt that before?" Haha, I thought Mike Myers himself was driving!

[@nascarboy2488]

at 5:39, the camera behind the stig is on top of the head rest thing, and at 5:48 its on one side of the head rest thing

[@kevin1234gg]

Woah, it still looks like it's from the future!

[@FAT8893]

The Veritas may not be cheap, but I so love the look of it.

[@ClassicBoxBreaker]

No, it's not green screen. It has to do with the frame rate that the show is filmed in (30 fps) - it happens quite a bit on Top Gear..

[@ChazDraycott]

I've never heard a V8 that's so raspy!

[@OmicronChan]

I think you are slightly confused.... in order for a revolving object to look like it is stationary means that it must move the angle between each spoke between each frame. The shutter speed simply makes the wheel more/less blurry in each frame. Let's say the wheel has 6 spokes, on 30 fps it means the wheel must turn 60 degrees every 1/30 of a second in order to look like it is stationary. the shutter speed would need to be in the range of 1/500 to get a clear image. Cave Johnson signing out.

[@TheRealArtimusKnight]

Now THAT is a race car!

[@MadnessIncVP]

4:56 You’re one to talk, James. 😂

[@BartBRH]

finally another Top Gear video.... keep posting!

Gotta give you a like just for how old this comment is!

those are some of the best looking factory wheels ive ever seen

[@FOKI5895]

Where is the rest of that car?

[@SRT480]

this is a car to be seen in and to listen too. if i had that kind of spare change i would get one. but it would have to get in line with the caterham, lambo 650, f 430, porsche gt3 etc etc etc

[@VanyahaHeights]

[@error_nr-1232]

Caterham? Really? Ain't that a VerMot (AG) Veritas RS3?

[@Juggalo10p]

i was expecting him to hit the button to get the spikey tires and swerve off road

[@truthkeeperfilms]

1:16, that German precision didn't apply to the alignment

[@cbr3220]

Reminds me of lemans cars from the 50s to 60s

[@WyvernApalis]

With a proper cabin this would actually look great

[@gamebigwolf951]

Top gear is best show

[@TheWarzoneHackerIsBack]

Not thrilled about a BMW based kit car. though.

[@drstupid1]

they fixed the steering.. but left the wooden floor?? hehe those crazy germans

[@cap7ainskull]

the slr stirling moss you thought was a veritas rs3

[@crocodeilos]

that car is a beauty

[@stealthoverlord]

This thing looks like it came from Speed Racer.

[@TheNightrunner666]

@romanosalvatore yes even the guy that built the mclaren said the veyron was a failure

[@breedam]

has to do with frame/sec stat of the camera and the time the wheel turns.

I have a german Veritas sewing machine from cca 1988

oh those pipes are musical beauty's

after looking at this and the new mclaren , i think this look much bolder

[@Gboy722]

very extreme looking car

[@tedesi]

umm, i know that when a wheeles are spinning, at a certain speed or wte it will give the apperence that they arent spinning. but at 1;00, it looks like theyre not spinning at all

[@bloodpig101]

Nice car. Doesn't it also come with 5 l. V10 from the M5?

[@LandoBlume]

@chazlington1992 Caterham bought the rights to the Lotus Super 7.

camera over stig's head change position

[@tom58c]

I would buy it if i could. I think its a beautiful car.

[@tb1669]

The RS3 is the car built for the stig, IT EVEN LOOKS LIKE HIM!

[@badlos404]

Does anyone know if you could get those wheels separately? They're bad ass

[@weemann45]

hey man i love german cars audi is one of my personal favs

[@AymanB]

@joranpoort Yep they don't have the rights for the music they used on TV for youtube. So they "always" change everything.

[@batvette]

Hey its a good thing nobody commented about the wheels looking like they arent moving.

[@batvette]

@Todd White naw I must have missed that cuz I was mesmerized by the unmoving wheels.
