This car beat the Huayra BC Roadster on Vairano Pro.

I'm sure in better weather conditions and Cup 2 R tyres it can go at least 2.5 seconds quicker or there abouts

Top gear track is very unfavourable for RWD, high downforce low power cars

still favours cars with good handling, like the dallara stradale, and the gt3 rs beats that car quite easily on most tracks so i dont see why it cant be the same here, especially as this has more power

the track was damp and definitely affected the lap time, but fundamentally, the top gear track is mostly straights and slow corners. Add the standing start, and the gt3rs would be already behind by 1.4s into the first corner compared to the SF90.

I was thinking theres about 1 second in the damp conditions, then 1-1.5 seconds with the change in tires, but if you think thats optimistic, let me know
