Avid Top Gear fans may well remember the time Richard Hammond raced the RAF in a Bugatti Veyron. Well, technology has moved on a little since then, and Paddy McGuinness fancied a rematch, so join Chris Harris in the super-slippery, 250mph McLaren Speedtail and the RAF in their 1200mph F35 jet. Let's race.

  • I was confused between buying a McLaren and F35. This video cleared my mind thanks. I shall rather use my bicycle. Thanks.

    "yeah I once raced a McLaren Speedtail and won." "no way what were you driving" "a fighter jet"
  • @lzrx
    The F-35 pilot was really such a skilled guy and most importantly he was so down to earth. Man I really love such people

    "AN ENGINE, WITH A PERSON STRAPPED TO THE FRONT OF IT" Epic quote.

    Every time I see this, it's so amazing. I can't imagine how much of a logistical nightmare it was to set all this up, from approving it, to the cost for maintenance before and after just to do a little demo.
  • That pilot pulled 7 g turns multiple times just to win a race what a beast.
  • @Niukulka11
    Producer: so whats the budget. BBC: yes
  • @arc7744
    These are some of the most incredible camera angles I’ve ever seen, and so cinematic! This was amazing to see!
  • @F0RB166EN
    Every man is a child at heart and this one is the perfect proof of it.
  • @realmoa
    Great consumer advice. I was concerned that my purchase of a F35 over the Speedtail was the wrong choice. Glad I made my purchase.
  • @yashmali1178
    Lockheed : u putting your f35s to good use uh Britain : yep
  • @professorkusemwa
    02:05 The Pilot understood the assignment & the way he predicted the outcome it shows that he has mastered kinesiology. 👏
  • @RayzerBlxde
    -I beat a $2,100,000 car EASILY! -Oh cool, How much was yours? $135,000,000 :D
  • @rohaniqbal3827
    Never have i ever seen a car moving so fast ,so slow😂
  • @ShynAwkward
    If you watch REAL closely, you'll clearly see that you cannot afford either one of these machines.......
  • This was one of the best things I've ever seen here on YouTube. The pilot's humbleness and then the car driver saying those words in the end about losing to that jet plane pretty much summed it all. I salute you both, thank you.
