This. This is the format that I want.

No staged shenanigans, phony road trips, or dumb challenges. Just great cars, drivers, and commentary. That was incredible.

Watching the three of them play on track and talk about all three cars was heartwarming. The last 21 minutes of that were gold, and I don't give a shit about super car stats and comparisons.

God, I absolutely love everything about that P1. It's just so damn good.

However, neither the P1 or 918 can hold a candle to the sound of the Ferrari's N/A V12

uggghhhh

Haha exactly how I felt. The laptimes and stats were almost meaningless. Was more fun just watching them dice it up and laugh making some crazy passes on each other and come out of turns sideways. Reminded me a lot of open track days, except with million dollar super cars

Tiff was sawing at the wheel a ton in the Ferrari. Couldn't tell if he was anticipating oversteer or the car is really setup that loose. He preferred it at the end, so guess it was more fun than work

I think it would have been just as enjoyable if they were in 3 cylinder Fiesta's.

Watching the cars accelerate down the straight I don't think there is a "slowest" car here.

Thanks. This video is a gentle reminder there are still a good thing or two (or three!) in this fucked up world.

Whoa whoa, not sure I'd go that far I actually enjoyed all the tire smoke, power slides and theatrics (not to mention, the tension of open-passing in million dollar cars), although I know what you mean - you could probably throw those guys into karts and end up with a great video.
