They've said that before.

I expected them to make fun of it enough, but surely they had to list its positives as well as its negatives.

Well, I'm assuming you're in North America. The BBC website won't let you watch it. You're out of luck until someone puts it on youtube, and even then I don't know if they'll get past the copyrights since it is from the current season.

Stig lap was dry. Shame it wasn't more sunny though to show off the IOM better.

Also I suspect that Clarkson secretly likes it, he just felt the need to play up the stereotype for entertainment (cheap Laughs).

Not a good lap time:( (1,27.9)

Having driven most of the other cars on the lap board I think it should have been faster

but not a bad first UK review and not the normal USA bashing

1:27.9 so not great. But the track is quite tight. Clarkson also admitted that it has a distinctive presence which convinces me more that he secretly loves it.

ETA Just noticed it was an automatic that they had, so probably not the best thing for going round the track and changing gears.

Well it beat the Roush Mustang (0.1 sec) but behind the Porsche 911GT3 by 0.7 seconds.
GT500 did it in 1.30.0. Unfortunately, the list doesn't tell us the year of the car.

Surprised they chose an automatic.
