Proof that driving skill does not increase with bank balance.

respect for tracking it, you'd be majorly gutted if you stacked it, although it 'looks' fairly cosmetic.

Looks like it stood up fairly well. Fair play for having a go.

Was this a case of a driver not skilled enough to drive it, or a driver skilled enough but pushing his/the cars limits?

I always remember the rich guys that turned up at Santa Pod in their Lambo's, M5's, Porsche's etc. One couldn't use the gearbox to launch and one couldn't use the gearbox, causing a very loud pomp, 'Get home mode' to the finish line and a piece of metal from gearbox handed to the driver by the Marshall.

he deserves alot of respect imo, he's pushing it hard even though he's got a brand new lambo. i know if hes racing a lambo round a track he's probably got alot more cash than i know about but hey at least he's pushing
