List of Top Gear test track Power Lap times

This is the full list of "official" Power Lap times on the Top Gear test track.[1]

Qualifying vehicles

edit

Top Gear define a qualifying vehicle as a road-legal production car on road-legal tires that has sufficient ride height to clear a standard speed bump. For these reasons the F1 car (Renault R24) (0:59.0), Aston Martin DBR9 (1:08.6) and Sea Harrier (0:31.2) do not appear.[2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10] Whenever a non-qualifying vehicle is raced, the time is compared to the official power laps but then removed from the board. For example, the Ferrari FXX owned by Michael Schumacher (1:10.7) was taken off the board because it both failed to meet road legal standards and used slick tyres, and the Caparo T1 (1:10.6) was removed because its front wing was too low to drive over a Speed bump.

Unofficial laps

edit

Independently reported lap times, not in connection with Top Gear series:

  1. 1:05.3 – Nissan ZEOD RC hybrid mode (internal combustion engine and electric motors).[22]
  2. 1:12.6 – McLaren 720S - Series 25
  3. 1:12.8 – Ultima GTR. After Top Gear allegedly refused to drive it because "they thought it couldn't clear a speed bump", Ultima Sports, Ltd. drove the car from Surrey to the track and set the time, verified by Plans Motorsport.[23]
  4. 1:13.2 – McLaren P1 tested by Motor Trend 2014
  5. 1:13.6 – Nissan ZEOD RC pure-electric vehicle mode.[22]

Time adjustments

edit

Sometimes an additional term is written next to the time (such as Hot). This indicates that The Stig and the Top Gear team consider that the prevalent weather conditions have affected the lap time or car's performance. The time on the board is not changed: e.g. 1:50 MM (Mildly Moist) is deemed to be equivalent to 1:48 on a normal dry track. The following list describes how many seconds it costs a car or gives a car an advantage. These adjustments are also not applicable to Formula 1 drivers.

Term Conditions Adjustment
HOT/COLD Track surface or car performance affected by high/low temperature or humidity −1 second
Mildly moist (MM) / Damp (D) Track surface slightly damp with some dry patches after light rain or drizzle −2 seconds
Moist (M) Track surface slightly wet due to shower of rain −3 seconds
Wet (W) / Melted snow (MS) Track surface wet due to light rain or melted snow −4 seconds
Very wet (VW) Track surface very wet (with large puddles) due to heavy rain −6 seconds
