The F430 lap might not have had the quickest lap ever, but the Enzo lap was atrocious. Actually I take that back, the last couple corners seemed noticable quicker than anything else, but he was oversteering through the first corner and that twitch through the hammerhead was ridiculous, I don't care what setup the car has, that is not even close to the fastest way through.

^I agree he did screw up at the hammerhead, but the first corner looks fine.

To be honest i think the MC12 was lucky, it is one taily mother of a thing compared to the Enzo (according to JC) even though his skills arent great, it was a handful
also take into consideration... stig was listening to thrashier music

I haven't seen it, so I don't know anything, but this just hit me...
If the MC12 is harder to control, it might be because it is set up more aggressively. An aggressive setup is faster if you are able to control it. Thus the good time with less power and more weight.
Just a thought...

quit possible as the Enzo is strictly a Road car for the Road (unlike the previous F50) where as the MC12 is pretty much a Race car, or infact a derivitive of the MCC race car. either way the thickness of paper seperates the two

i think what everyone is trying to say is to figure out which one really is the faster of the two, no matter the hours put into driving it, or what track, there is not really a way to tell which is fastest (unless its on a test track that the car was developed on). every driver makes mistakes and top gear is simply showing how the cars drive, and act on the course, not which is actually faster.. the times are a means to associate different cars and how they act on the same track, when it comes down to a couple seconds the smallest variables will throw the times.
