This interview proved that this was one of those times where Clarkson was in the right. Mark may have set a 1 min 47.1 sec lap time in the wet, but, when he came back 8 years later, he went exactly 4 seconds faster. If Lewis Hamilton and Daniel Riccardo can beat the 1 min 44 mark, so can Mark Webber.
I think you can give Mark Webber the credit for starting the trend of current F1 drivers wanting to have a go round that track. He threw down the challenge to everyone else, and they couldn't resist!
he was old and retired from like 7 years when he did the lap. plus Damon almost had a breakdown during the last race of his career. in his mind he was not a pilot anymore
The amount of stuff into this that was carried on future shots is frightening Mark being 4 seconds faster on drys, having an “audition” for The Grand Tour, Michael “being” the Stig...
Did anybody notice when Jeremy says he would be 4 seconds faster in the dry and mark laughed it of. When mark came back and did it again in the dry he went exactly 4 seconds faster
