That can't be right, a Hummer H2 faster than a Mercedes Benz SL63 AMG? If that's the case, the Mercedes has a crappy traction control system, but being that Mercedes Benz pioneered TCS, I conclude that these lap times are fake.

Is this time correct?

I know it was driven on wet track.
But slower than a 1000 kg heavier Hummer with less power?
