Richard, no traction control, no stability control, no ABS, rear drive, standard manual gear box, and almost as fast as an Aventador around and incredibly scary circuit. Jesus Christ he's a good driver!
Billiamiscool nobles do have a traction Control. Not sure about stability control tho
Horst Günther nope, no stability control, the only driver aids in the noble was traction control.
And he crashed a Rimac
He has got big balls.

Am i the only one here who thinks bloody well done to hammond correcting that spinout into safe slide onto the gravel?
ToraxReborn hell, I'd take gravel trap over a spinout.
Absolute G
Me I wrote a comment on it he could have lost it and sent the noble straight into the side walls
definitely. I once was on a race track and lost control over a mitsubishi evo IX in a S-bend. Didn't managed to catch the car despite going slower and went sidewards into a pile of tyres after the gravel
@@floh667 you spun out a EVO
The stig is like the final boss on every games.
+Kahlo kahlow no he's not, bosses can be beaten. the stig is the last level of Donkey Kong.
roguedogx Oh I see.
+roguedogx or the lats level of Pacman.
But yet, we all beat him on forza.
Stretch it , Stretch it
Come On!!
Considering Clarkson couldn't handle the Noble in Top Gear's track without traction control and the fact that the Noble has no ABS. The Hamster deserves an award.
+woon chee voon what cars (models) are they ??
+sri vallabh jeremy's was a lambourghini aventodor, hammond with a noble M600 I believe , and may with the mclarren mp4-12c.
And Hammond had a stick shift gear box, takes much more brain capacity than a simply paddle shifter.
There is the traction control in the Noble! I think that Hamster left it on. Except racing drivers this is the best way to get the best time from the Noble. Great Hamster anyway!
Edward Millard stick shifter and manual mean the same thing, like semi-automatic and paddle shifter / flappy paddles mean the same thing, none of those are either american or british exclusive. And you don't say "cambio robotizzato" when driving an italian car, so what you're saying that you have to say a term from the language the car was made in is complete horseshit.
Yo, the noble has no ABS and Hammond still drove it to 200+mph?
That guy is a really good driver. He really is.
Zong Sam they all are, not just any person can drive fast round a track
They are no racing drivers but definitely all of them aside from maybe James are better than most amateurs.
And the Noble has a manuel gearbox. Thats a big disadvantige!
Well done Richard!
@@NippyMoto James is a good driver, it's just a running gag
I think they definitely lied about the top speed down the straight, looking at assetto corsa hot laps top speeds on main straights 458: 270 kmh mclaren p1 307kmh, and that is a game/sim where they can press restart if they crash . If they all did 320+ they will all be in the tire barrier at t1.... 290kmh will be a very optimistic figure
The flames coming out the Lambo is what my dreams are made of.
And that soundtrack 😮
the noise it makes is ungodly when its getting the shit revved out of it
The shot at 6:07 made me weak
Matt Kay
Carbondioxide,carbonmonoxide & dihydroxide?
Jeremy talking to his Lambo with flames coming out of the back gives me goosebumps every time
Top gun vibes
it is pretty bad ass
I would like to think the engineers who designed that car smile with pride when watching that clip.
Clarkson: We can beat them!
Hammond: Give it everything you've got!
May: Please be gentle with me..
hahahahaaa
NattyFenja The thing is may's car is most likely to be gentle with him
May : 5:02
This reminds me of some wierd hentai that i used to watch.....
@@muzankibutsuji7603 NO
05:52 My favorite part it's like he is motivating the lambo and it hears him and spits fire all the way giving everything it haves. It is epic.
upload9595 epic
I did cross country in college, and whenever I started sprinting toward the finish line I would repeat that to myself. "Stretch it, stretch it, stretch it. Come on!" "You can do it. Come on!"
@@AussieChristophe27 hahaha
I dropped a tear jajaja
Juansho Mamalong Me too! 😂
Jeremy never takes anything seriously so seeing him drive that Aventador was absolutely awe inspiring. he wanted a 100% from it and and even after the brakes started to disappoint, it screams blue flames from hell out the exhaust and gives him 110% and wins him the challenge. one of the best episodes ever!
dude that exhaust noise was amazing
agreed
any time the challenge has to do with speed, Jeremy takes it seriously
***** Except when he towed a freaking jumbo jet in that one drag race
For a second I thought it was nitros
Jeremy absolutely ripping in the Aventador, the exhaust screaming and shooting out constant fire, was possibly the greatest moments of Top Gear. Gives me chills every time.
The hilarious thing is that James May, even though he's Captain Slow, could annihilate most of us around the track.
5:02 no one gonna talk about this
@@ToyTaanic right. B E A N S
They built his 'Captain Slow' persona on the show because it's funny. He isn't a bad driver at all.
Tiff Needell I think said that Jeremy was the best driver, followed by James, then hammond
@@danmitchell8165 ........you think? ok.
There is an achievement in Assetto Corsa.
"Beat the driver who shall not be named"
Beat 1:56:60 at Imola with the Ferrari 458
Shavershian Walker
Tell me when you made it, haven't beaten it yet.
Wow, congratulations. Would you mind uploading a video?
Which driving/racing sims are considered the best?
Some say that if you beat him even in a video game, you are immediately placed on his hit list.
GloomGaiGar oops I did that as well so I'm in the stigs hit list now .... shit
Hammond really wins this one, driving a car to the limit without ABS is freaking bravery if you're not a racecar driver with experience on how to do it.
And leicester would kick Juventus' ass these days
+Tall Man Not really hahaha Juventus are one of the best teams in the world, Champions League runners up
+KERMV. familiar with the term sarcasm?.
+Carpe Diem It was sarcasm?
+netweed09 It was
After 8 years and counting, I just realized that Richard was the only one using the almost full racing suits. It just how serious that Noble is.
No mate just incase he crashed and caught flames , it is hamster 😂😂 controlled the car really well though and brought it to a stop in the gravel bank
Or he was channeling his inner cole trickle nascar fantasy :-)
6:00 I love how JC stops being a motoring journalist and turns into a proper race car driver.
What a moment 5:52 . That V12 screaming at 8,000 with the blue flames and glowing exhausts - what panache and verve. That's an Italian monster if ever there was one.
that's a lamborghini aventador for ya. that V12 puts out 729 horsepower, and the flames are a result of unused fuel getting into the exhaust, getting ignited and blown out the pipes
@@derekwall200 Base LP700-4 Aventador is 691 HP. But yeah.... it's my dream car. Still the best looking supercar on the road!
Thats what I dream of all the time
@@SangheiliSpecOp 6.5L V12 generating 729 HP, gas mileage is 9 city 15 highway. engine price without the car is $60,000-$200,000 and up
Jupiter Fox! The best part is that instead of a super car it is classified as a hypercar. Absolutely insane car. I’ve seen only one in person at a gas station and the guy was kind enough to show us around it and rev it up for us. Probably the loudest car I’ve heard outside of formula 1 cars but damn the sound made me erect.
LOL though James May maybe nicknamed captain slow, he still did a very good time
James May was the stig, he stopped in 2010. Look it up.
***** My un-shaved legs are the stig!
haha
***** I think he was trying to make a joke about the stig posing as James in the Germans vs Top Gear challenge from Season 8-ish..
Tiger 1512 Yeh You're right May was the stig in this challenge
Normal people will never understand why we talk with our cars before a race or a long trip
Eston Playz And Stuff You´re right, bro
Rado Heineken Yeah, I am.
+Rado Heineken You should have heard the conversations I had with my 97' Corolla before driving it across the US..... I made that bitch listen.
pope400 I did the same with my Peugeot 407 :D
+Rado Heineken I'm a UPS driver, I do the same when I'm making deliveries.
1:00 : ONLY these three could pull off something like talking to cars. The new folks (Evans, LeBlanc) doing this would surely be cringe-worthy...
Don't worry. They won't. There's serious doubt there won't even be another series with the new presenters.
Rahul if you love track days , you will spent time alone talking to your car before going out so its nothing personal
I talk to all vehicles that I drive or ride. It's a normal thing to me
@@scsutton1 Unfortunately, there was.
Rowan Atkinson however would have pulled it off a lot more brilliantly than those three
The moment Jeremy said come on come on you can do it, and you could hear the rpm's from the Aventador getting even louder plus the music, gave me goosebumps
Don't forget the flames...
I'm I the only one who had chills running down my spine when Jeremy pushed the Lamborghini to the absolute limit? I knew after that he would win!
Jez laughing at the prospect of taking on Leicester City. Oh how the tables have tabled.
How the tables have tabled? I agree though :)))
I was thinking the exact same thing
FORZA JUVE!
ihathtelekinesis I know it's ironic about Leicester, but he said the two because woking town (mclarens home) and Leicester (nobles home)
***** We are talking about football, or soccer as you would call it
6:05 that has to be the sexiest engine sound in the history of engine sounds
The 458 is slower than these, both in top speed and around a track. It might corner better than the Noble, but the Noble is so quick in the straights it makes up for it.
Just proves how good the Stig is!
because the 458 isnt equivalent to those 3 but the f12 is, 458 is an older model considering the production yr, 458 was 2009 and those 3 was 2011
T.C. Yu Yeah i know, but the fact that the Stig managed to do it that much quicker is quite amazing. The 458 is still very quick around a track, however.
i think the stig during that time was a gt3 pro racer so theres almost no way for amateurs to beat him without very significant equipment advantages. but i find it strange that the f12 isnt popular at all comparing to the 458
Lol so true the bigger their top
Speed the faster they're in the straights if your car does 200 mph top speed your likely to average 160-170 if your car does 230 its likely to do 170-180 in the straights i was wondering how the ferrari was so fast i forgot about the stig
I think what it really shows is the difference between an actual race car driver and some motoring journalists.
"We ventured onto the track to beat the Stig's 1:56.6"
I love that he's still smug after losing.
WTBGold come on, he won among the 3
getting to within 3 seconds is crazy
WTBGold he did not loose to his peers
Which car did stig use?
Yiğit Arslan Yaşar Ferrari 458
legitimately get goosebumps every time i watch the last part of clarkson in the Aventador. so much passion in that 25 second bit
4:24 Hammond's absolute focus on retaining as much control of the car as he can tells you all you need to know about his mad skillz.
My favourite bit, 5:55 to 6:10, so inspiring to see Jeremy taking it so serious :)
Almost like the car was listening to him
That’s what racing does to you
He finally tapped into the full power of the Aventador, he called out the commands and the car was listening
The Aventador's Flames is one of the many reasons why I love it so much, it has so much anger and so much passion and ready to deliver 691 fire-spitting horsepowers at anyone that dare mess with it speaking of flames i would love to see the flames a straight-piped aventador would eject
They get specially tuned ones for testing thus the production versions wouldn't be as fire splitting as this one
TheAventadorSV Is the flame-spitting even normal? o_o
Daniel Fok Yeah it is. Aventadors spit flames all the time
+TheAventadorSV I love the aventador. I just wish they made a rwd manual version that wasn't setup to understeer like it currently is. If they did that, then it'd be my favorite modern supercar.
Obi-Wan Kannabis Yeah like a Balboni edition Aventador would have been sick
Hammond and the Noble were definitely the most badass. Rear drive manual is so commendable and takes a really skilled driver to get those numbers
R.I.P. Senna
And Ratzenberger.
That was a cursed race.
26 years on he’ll forever be in our hearts 💕
Sempre senna ♥️🇧🇷
Put Hammond behind the wheel of the Lamborghini Aventador and I'd be curious to see how close he could come to Jezza's time ... if not surpass it. That's not to knock Clarkson, though. That he broke two minutes is a testament to his focus and skill.
Yeah but consider the power difference of the cars they were driving and the Ferrari stig was driving all of their times can be considered poor.
thando socikwa I'll stipulate that the Stig would be faster, but then the Stig is a PRO. As good as Jeremy and Richard are, pros they are NOT.
My primary thought is that what slowed Hammond down was the manual shifter on the Noble, plain and simple. Much as I love to row through the gears, it must be admitted that paddle shifters are faster at what they do. I seriously suspect that correlates to faster lap times as well. Had Hammond had a shot in the Aventador, I'd bet you a cup of coffee he'd be considerably faster than the 2:03.3 he set at Imola.
*****
Which begs the question: if both Jeremy and Richard had been driving Aventadors, do you really think Jezza would still be four seconds faster than the Hamster?
***** And once again, it begs the question: just WHO is the fastest of the three of them? May? Get serious! Hammond and Clarkson? FAR more interesting!
Personally, I think it's time for an apples-to-apples comparison!
Troubleshooter125
In the 24 Hour race they did in the BMW, Clarkson was quicker than both Richard and James by a few seconds each lap, he was only 2 seconds slower than the Stig.
I'd put my money on Clarkson.
Nice work Hammond keeping it out of the wall. Takes real driving skill to let go off the brakes in a moment like that, he would've definitely smashed into the right-side wall if he hadn't.
That point on Imola is so tricky, you have to turn the car while setting up for a hard braking zone, which is more than hard enough, but you also have to do it with virtually zero grip because you just came flying over a crest!
Edit: They must've gone through entire trailers worth of tires before the Lambo was the fastests.
+Peter Timowreef they all must hv gone through trailers of tires before they decided lambo was the fastest :p
I just love the beginning of the video, specially when they mention Ayrton Senna, one of the best F1 racers the world has ever seen
What an intro on Imola!! Clarkson is simply the best.
Did you see the one in the Italian Job? That one is perfect: vimeo.com/79258480
That's one of the rare times that you can see Jezza seriously committed to driving
Why is Hammond the only one in a Race suit? Is it because the Noble has less fireproofing?
yes
Plus he had that dragster crash maybe he just wants more protection
Shane Fell There is no airbag and abs :)
Shane Fell was just about to write that, its the first time ive noticed and i've watched this video atleast 20 times
Shane Fell Because race suits are small and he was the only one to fit in :D :D :D
10 years later and it’s still goosebumps watching the boys push there selves and their cars to the limit.
pretty sure these guys have the best job in the world
RIP Senna :(
Race in Paradise :(
Who died?
Ayrton Senna Da Silva
He died At the age of 34 at 05/01/94
*****
Yeah, I just saw the video, thanks. Pretty brutal.
I saw that race live...
† R.I.P. Ayrton Senna †
aventador is a real brutal... I never seen so much flames coming out of the exhaust
i think i saw the words thrust on the speedometer
The word thrust has nothing to do with the flame the thrust mode is Lamborghini's Launch Control
Skrabob it sounds so awesome, like no other car makes a noise even close to that.
chrismechanic B Alot of cars makes a noise even close to that
Pantheram TCG not for me, im a lamborghini fan.
They just sound so good.
5:53 I love it when people actually treat their cars as people, "STRETCH IT STRETCH IT C'MON!" He was motivating the Lambo :D
4:19 concentration and fear together save lives
if it happened to me, i'd have flowers on my grave now
Daniele Dal Col If life was GTA, I'd drive the best lap. So, me too ;)
The way Clarkson went “COME ON, COME ON”, goosebumps were real 😩
Lot of people don't understand why we talk to cars.
That first part gave me chills. One of the best top gear episodes ever.
You can feel the pleasure of driving the Aventador just by watching this video! Most exciting car of the three.
This is the episode I had so much respect for all 3 of them. Specially for Jeremy because he looked so determined. I miss them a lot! I would always laugh so hard watching them when I was younger that my mom had to come to my room to see if I was okay because I was making too much noise lol
It was a great show and they had an amazing brotherhood.
Yeah I still remember that same scenario one of the best top gear episodes I have ever seen
5:11 Footage from the Top Gear Test Track?...
+Marcello Penk-Masucci How the HELL did you spot that?!
+Marcello Penk-Masucci Wow. What an eye.
holy shit i watch this video for like the 10th time and never saw that
+Marcello Penk-Masucci Good eye my friend. As many times as I've watched this video I never noticed that.
+Marcello Penk-Masucci huh....
This bit of the episode is stunning! On the final attempt It seems that Clarkson is asking the Lambo to be faster than it actually is!
I get goosebumps from this clip every time.
The aventador is a flame spitting beast of a car.
check out any rotary car :>
Ecookman Ice or 2jz or rb25 or Any powerfull engines
Juventus vs Leicester City really could happen in next season's Champions League.
yes haha
Sean Sutton Woking could go against either team's under-13 squad
Oliver Heap z
Now Leicester are premier league champions 😂
I love how in 4:58 the red arrows in the background sync up with the camera's frame rate and appear to be static.
One does not simply beat "The Stig".
oh my god the exhaust of the lambo glows hard
That part were Jeremy is coming to the finish line shouting "come on!", gives me chills every time.
Hammond didnt do to bad considering how analogue the Noble is in comparison to the Mac and the Lambo.
Man if only Jeremy knew about this year's Leicester.
leicester would win 4-1
+H Larkins Vardy-ferrari and maclaren-mahrez
+H Larkins still no match for Juve
Sean Borg Who gives a shit about Juve, worry about your own league.
+H Larkins
Haha Exactly! :D
5:54 the flames from the lambo was like from a fighter jet afterburner.. Dayum
Is it only me, or is that the background of the Top Gear track when the cam zooms onto the speedometer of the McLaren at 5:10?
lol i think it is
As a film maker, a reason I can think of is that the director wanted a clip of the speedometer, and they couldn't get it so they had to back at their track, which they can use whenever they want
Yes, and the car has changed colour too (the wing/fender poking at the left) from the Volcano Orange to the McLaren Orange. Good spot.
And of course the fact that it's left-hand drive.
james' speach, considering who was for, was the most adorable.
I nearly get emotional when I watch and listen to that Aventador screaming and spitting fire
6:03
Man, that sequence gave me goose bumps!
That Aventador fire in 6:07 really does make me think of a fighter jet using it’s afterburners. What a monster that thing is. I know that’s not good for the engine, but that is amazing that it has that much power at its disposal
I've driven all three of these beasts.
In Forza *sigh*
You can really see how ferocious the changes in the Aventador is based on Jeremy's head twitching when he changes up. Jesus christ that thing is a beast.
Man I love the screaming of that V12 Lambo🤩
The determination on all of their faces, especially Clarkson on that last lap was absolutely amazing.
almost 10 years and all these cars still looks amazing!
that color on that lambo..... and the black rims....
and the flames :D
jawad syed and the smoking brakes
much speed
such power
so beautiful
wow
With the glowing brake discs and the blue flames!
The blue flame looked like nitros
Watching Jeremy push that monster of a lambo gave me goosebumps
5:50 that was freakin exhilarating.
Wow, the sound of the Lambo gave me goose bumps!
See how hard they tried along with epic music makes my eyes water.
That lambo sound is like it came from heaven. What a car
05:45 - 06:15 That scene gave me the shivers...
God I love the sound of that lambo. Watching these guys get serious.... man, I just can’t help but smile
Anyone else think it’s funny how Richard is the only one wearing a fire proof race suit and gloves 😂😂😂 I bet there was no chance of any insurance happening without that 😂
I worked at Imola as volunteer paramedic.
Everytime I walked into the Tamburello I got chills running through my spine.
Now it's a chicane but I imagined it original layout.
An almost flat-out left turn; one slim mistake and you kiss the wall.
A turn made by the devil himself, like the Eau rouge - Raidillon.
5:56 for a brief moment, that Aventador became a living being.
i mean he was talking to it
Its too bad what happened with Jeremy, you could see his devotion.
And with Hammond as well, kinda. He's a damn good driver _(see what he did at __4:21__, for example),_ but I heard he's been twitchy at high speeds ever since his accident with the Vampire dragster
In short, and in gratitude to any Italians here and their underestimated country, Italian cars are the very definition of the heart and soul in the whole car industry.
I can't believe anyone didn't notice that the bit at 0:14 (mentioning F1 drivers who have crashed) was different in the TV version.
In the TV version Jeremy mentioned Gilles, Gerhard, Nelson, Patrese, and Rubens instead.
Yeah it did, not sure why it was taken out and replaced with this version
6:05 how can you replace that whit an electric car? its hurting the environment so bad, but its beautiful
Any gas-powered sports car wont hurt the environment too much as long as it's owner only takes it out on the weekends. But I never judge how that person should live his or her life.
@@Mich_-mu7fz don't want to be pendantic but shouldn't you judge someone if the way they live their lives are harmful to others
This is the best Top Gear film ever. A couple of hooligans and James May trying to beat The Stig on an open track. No frills.
I love everything at this Lambo !!! One of the greatest videos of top gear..
One of my top three favorite top gear episodes other than the trips to Vietnam etc
That was actually kinda intense at the end, and the sound of that Lambo was just perfection.
7:17 Jeremy smiling is so cursed
Jeremy: "The lambo is unleashed!"
Richard: "I'm doing this for Leicester!"
James: "Right... beans!
I was waiting for "POWEERR!"
4:37 breaks are red hot....
Raghunandan Reddy C Red hot, Red hot, redd hut, redutt, rehuh h3h3 anyone
Whenever I need motivation to push on, I just hear Clarkson in my head.
*C'mon! C'mon! You can do it, c'mon!*
I've seen this many times before. While the Aventador is very impressive, I absolutely love and adore the Noble. It's just man and machine, its raw, unadulterated adrenaline. No driver aids. The problem is we'll never get to see one in the US. Thanks.
Not even in 2035?
*Jackie Stewart, when asked about who is the best driver in Top Gear:*
"Jeremy thinks that he's the best driver, James is a bit too gentle, so out of the three, Hammond is the better driver."
Watching them talk to their cars, especially James, was almost emotional. Seeing that Lambo shooting flames 2 feet long was inspirational. Love those guys.
So ironic how Juventus vs Leicester is now a huge game. How times have changed :(
So ironic how Juventus vs Leicester is back to the shitty game it was again. How times have changed AGAIN :(
Zachary Thomas There is a small english team called Leicester City who won the premier league and Juventus is a big italian team.
