Top gears require alot of horse power to pull hard.. The Bugatti has the ponies to pull at 100mph +. Not a surprise to me..

I'm impressed how well that 15 year old F1 did against the 2010's Fastest Production Car.

The official time slips say the Bugatti is faster in the 60ft/1/8th mile/and quarter mile. The Bugatti is AWD too.. I think the drivers let off in the start and spiced the drag for more drama..
I sense major driver error at launch in that vid.. The Bugatti should have pulled on the F1 the entire time according to the official specs..?????????????

I'm not picking you because I am well aware that Top Gear is an entertainment show first and a car show second (I'm a big fan of the show) and might actually stage the race to make it appear closer.
However, I don't think driver error could be the cause for a close race. The Veyron is an automatic (in the sense it doesn’t have a clutch pedal), all wheel drive car, it is not a driver’s car. All you have to do to go fast is put your right foot down.
