I just saw the drag race...and I have to say i'm disgusted. It was nothing more than an advert for Tesla. Aside from using SpaceX's own runway, they even added an "Electric motors are better than Gasoline" message at the end, just for extra oomph. MT, I am disappointed in you.

What about Tesla, huh? I guess since he's becoming such an EV fanboy, he's becoming just like everyone else, and excusing Tesla. I'm beginning to not like him even more now. While Ferrari can't even catch a break. I guess he didn't know that a 488 without the lifter has adjustable suspension. But hey, Ferrari can only just cheat and nothing else, right.

Don't want to come off rude, but these automotive vlogger are not credible automotive authorities.

Where are you guys getting your information from?
The real surprise to me is that Mclaren 570 GT, I am sure Mclaren has deliberately under quoted the real power figure of the engine.

It's only a matter of Cup 2 or Cup 2 ZP tyres on the AMG.
On ZP it's quicker on Hockenheimring than 488 (1:06,4 vs 1:07,0 min). On "normal" Cup 2s it's slower (1:07,4).
We only have to know which tyre the MT-testcar had.
As always. There is no way that car makes "only" 562 HP.

I remember Jonny Lieberman saying that the AMG GT R used "corvette spec tires" so I guess he was talking about Cup2 ZP.

So let me get this straight: this C*nt is comparing a car, that he hasn't even tested yet, against a car that wasn't even in the BDC 2017, against a fully luxury spec car against one hardcore, light weight version and a semi-hardcore version? He's comparing a heavy, GT-spec 488, against the 675LT he tested that weights 500lbs less, and was still .5seconds slower? He's also comparing the AMG GTR against the LT...on what grounds? His own or Mags? Because if its mags, then by his own words, all mags are liars and are paid. But then the GTR lost on nearly every test except two, and the biggest was by .8seconds! The largest difference for the LT vs GTR was 3seconds on Bugatti circuit.
He's comparing the heaviest 488 against the lightest LT and it still barely won by .5 seconds on a track that should suit the LT more than anyone else, and he considers that a stomp? How deluded is he, or better yet, how much of a maclover is he? The Huracan was down on everything compared to its competitors and it was so close, i'd call it a tie, but not in his eyes. What the heck is wrong with him? Then he compares the 488 to the GTR to the LT? The heck? How do you even do that? The only time the 488 lost majorly against the GTR was at the ring, and that was only due to ZP tires. But hey, he doesn't care about facts or anything else. As long as it make ferrari look bad, he and his fanbase don't care.
