[@muhamedtrakic7472]

The Stig went into Fifth Gear. Refernce to Ben Collins(former Stig)geting fired from BBC and going to Fifth Gear

[@ValentineC137]

Or it is because the car has a special 4wd system that dis-engages in 5th gear

[@ValentineC137]

MATS Channel it actually has such a drive system, he even says something along the lines of the car going into rear weel drive at 5th gear to stig

[@appelpower1]

+Valentine Yes, but it had a second meaning in the form of the reference mentioned in the OP.

[@JoaoOliveira-mm5rd]

Ww

[@sheamusoforigen5968]

Valentine I think it was both :o

[@JJceo]

When you live in Canada you know that winter tires make a world of a difference.

[@Legend_Hunter_Original]

Oh hell ya

[@johanbogg9158]

3 years later I have to add this: It is said that before this program was recorded Bentley contacted a Swedish expert in studded tires, whom have been providing rally cars with studded tires for centuries. So he created 3 custom sets of tires for the bentley. Ferrari brought their own tires, probably stock tires from a large manufacturer...

[@zedzedski7382]

When you live in Canada you know that only a few people know that winter tires make a world of a difference but most think that "All Season" tires are meant for harsh and snowy Canadian winters. Result, everyone drive like snails or are in the ditch.

[@Billshurwin]

Str8 up

[@zedzedski7382]

@0hjaa 2.0 you didn't get it. Many here in Canada think that all season's are ok in winter :-)

[@hanif12able]

"Did you go into fifth gear ?" that moment cracks me out hahaha

[@Star-kp8oc]

Hanif Purbaya lol

[@AlkimiusGaming]

Hanif Purbaya you hateful imbecile!

[@uzeyirveli]

Now I get it! He means the show.

[@pflaffik]

Did you understand why? I think you are clueless and should not post about things you don't know. Ferrari FF has a special 4wd system that uses something similar to what we call a front PTO on tractors, and it disengages in 5th gear, it's only active in 1st to 4th gear plus reverse. So Clarkson wasn't trying to be funny but you still laughed, now THATS funny, you made a complete fool of yourself.

[@hanif12able]

Ploffy Kha you seem very educated, prof. perhaps your intelligence leads you to be an anti social human?

[@doctorzaius4084]

They should've had The Stig do a lap in the hovercraft!!! That thing is fuckin sweet!!

[@atarvhegde5210]

I will agree

[@FarmYardGaming]

I daresay the Hovervan would make for a really entertaining lap too, however it'd go

[@judgingcat1958]

[@Digitalstar3]

Thanks for the replay button

[@bryanlopes3864]

Those up close shots in the first 30 seconds were blissful.

[@RealRaynedance]

Somehow, "Heart of Courage" sounds even better when it's used here.

[@TheSlashfan85]

"You hateful imbecile!"... I nearly died laughing hahahahaha

[@ShinyHagge]

For those who wonders, the Bentley uses a swedish special winter tyre called Lappi, which comes with 410-770 studs depending on size. The studs are off course glued and studded by a man who built wrc rally tires in the 90's, also called Lappi. And as Clarkson says. The bentley won because of better studded tyres...

[@Vladpryde]

It's time to add Bentley to Rally Cross.

[@GoredonTheDestroyer]

***** They tried it once, or was that Rolls-Royce?

[@GoredonTheDestroyer]

***** Well, considering Bently's extensive racing pedigree, they could pull it off.

[@cadirburak1389]

[@oni741]

@Vladpryde It's time to add Bentley to F1 too. 😂😉 *{I'm joking!!}*

[@trevordillon1921]

The Dark Shinobi why not tho? It’s not like they’re anything close to the cars the companies make

[@apettyfamily]

They should've run the range rover around the track and compared times..

[@FikriKawakibi]

the RR would be a year slower but yes should be interesting haha

The Range Rover in this case is not about speed, it's about Performance and Off-roading capabilities.

[@Jackarooooo]

0:20 sounds like a rocket taking off! :O

[@tosgem]

At 4:40 they admit the Bentley had "better, studded tyres than the ferrari"... LOL. A minor detail.

[@charles-antoinemartel-roy]

They used stock winter tires for both. Bentley offers a better stock quality than ferrari. It's perfectly fair

[@tosgem]

Charles-Antoine Martel-Roy studded winter tyres are standard on a Bentley? Is that even legal?

[@charles-antoinemartel-roy]

Here in Canada, it is. I don't know about elsewhere in the world. Bentley does hold the land speed on ice world record for street legal cars, do not forget that.

[@1995TDi]

+tosgem Not just legal but in some northern countries indispensable.....

[@tompaton5050]

+Charles-Antoine Martel-Roy land speed is totally different to track

[@bondjamesbond5580]

Amazing how much insight and knowledge Clarkson has.

[@TheKaukas]

5:57 Ferrari moved his eyelashes

[@Razang1996]

5:58 LOL what's with the twitchy ferrari windscreen wipers

[@casey0haga]

+Russell Ang thats because they are under the bonnet when they are down and you cant lift them up to remove ice from youre windshield i think

[@Team_Nico_Motorsport]

They turned the car off 😑

[@manasijohn3520]

tht was a bit scary lol

[@oni741]

[@Japanie2]

Is this two steps from hell?

[@tommyklinedinst4953]

Around 1:20, Heart Of Courage by Two Steps From Hell starts playing, the BBC puts a lot of their songs into Top Gear

[@GiuseppeCorona27]

The track Heart Of Courage by Two Steps From Hell was used by Ferrari for a commercial of FF. Bad use of this masterpiece by Ferrari.

[@Sufiyan270]

So many people are impressed by Italian design, however, in my opinion, British cars aren't far behind! I even think British cars sometimes beat Italians in terms of design.

[@Joecollazogaming_etc]

It's not necessarily the Italian design, it's the emotional appeal. The way it looks, the way it sounds, the steering and pedal feel

[@aaaaaaaaaaaaa5210]

never

[@jakedeane5304]

Britain always had the best car, today maybe not

[@saltycycling]

Man you have to appreciate the audio in this bit. Rocket engine sounds during the slow-mo start and later that Transformers theme... Lovely.

[@JobiWan144]

What timestamp does the Transformers music start? I've discovered that not all the music in this video matches the list on Top Gearbox.

[@HSGAutomotive]

Love the FF. The ultimate daily driver for me.

[@TheErichs12]

looks like a station wagon

[@AnimalzyCo]

TheErichs12 its supposed tobe a hatchback so that would make sense...

[@HSGAutomotive]

Yeah the general term given to cars like the FF are 'Shooting Brake' (A 2 door wagon variant with supersports underpinnings).

[@omarabdul4525]

TheErichs12 you mean a shooting brake? Does that look like a station wagon to you? If it does, go and visit your optician for a check up.

[@HSGAutomotive]

[@GeoffB-oh7fg]

"and then keep on working when I got there"... sooo... sarcasm? I've seen more range rovers in garages than on the road.

The best footage top gear has ever offered. Its just the stuff of dreams

[@nickjwood84]

You know, I really like the FF. A lot of people don't like it for one reason or another, but I think it's a really cool GT car. V-12, seats four comfortably, has a decent trunk (boot for my friends across the pond).

[@lukeparsons583]

You've never actually sat in the back seat of an FF, have you? Or if you have, you must be under 5'6" if you can call that back seat "comfortable"

[@nickjwood84]

Luke Parsons *comfortable for a Ferrari...

[@percival23]

The space shuttle take off sound effect with the wheels spinning was brilliant.
