    You can see the Porsche braking down the straight at 12:46 (just check the centre break light) to let the McLaren through easily. Whichever car is faster, I think there's a lack of fairness when executing the fastest laps on each car. Not saying this is the first time this happens in Motorsport journalism, but I always have way more fun when the two drivers are honestly pushing the cars to their real limits - unlike in this video apparently.

    On the straight, the speed different was too big to be realistic. Such a shame because if you just take a clean exit and stick behind the Porsche, you can easily overtake it coming on to the straight. But the way they filmed it, it's more sensation, going sideways first and then overtaking the Porsche mere moments later.

    @@andreasbeaufort3594 My friend, I'm sure there are drivers who can record higher speeds in the 570s (and the 911 4S) around that very same corner. Whether or not it be a professional vs professional, driver skills vary. And notice that the driver of the 911 4S improved upon his speed each time he hit the same corner. That may indicate he is the better driver. Some cars have better cornering capabilities than others. And some drivers know how to better handle cars around corners than others. Now, in this particular instance, the rear wheel steering may have offered the Porsche the cornering advantage. The feature was design for better cornering, anyways. But no AWD or rear wheel steering is what I love so much about McLaren supercars...None of those driver assist gimmicks. To me, that is what makes for a pure driver's car. And the reward is that it can make you a better driver. The 911 GT2RS/GT3 RS are pure driver's machines.

    I've rented both cars and prefer the McLaren for two reasons: 1. It is lighter and faster. In fact, under full throttle on a straight run of a 1/4 mile or more, it is shockingly fast. 2. The Porsche essentially is invisible among daily driven vehicles. Few people can tell whether it is 10 years old or new. It blends in with 911s that are worth half the price. The McLaren, with its exotic car shape and dihedral doors is light years ahead of the 911 in the appearance department. The one I rented was like the king of cars, its driver was perceived to be extremely wealthy and wise.

    Karun, body roll has nothing to do with "throwing weight to the outside of the car". Weight transfer is a function of track and centre of greavity height. Body roll would only have a noticeable impact if it was a tall Land Rover for example, but even 2 to 3 degrees of roll on a sports car makes no significant difference since it is the lateral acceleration that is the main term of the equation for lateral load (weight) transfer.

If the point is to pick the best all around car then simply tell the viewers that for roughly the same price one can have a Turbo S! Hint those are available now in some markets and certainly in the next few months in almost every market. All dealers are taking orders. The Turbo S is certainly available to Fifth Gear!

    ​@@TheTmat007 That's an odd assertion, considering Porsche is one of the few manufacturers that still offers a manual tranny on some of their cars. McLaren hasn't offered a manual in any of their cars other than the F1. They also give you dual-clutch only--another layer of separation between the driver's foot and the engine. I'm not sure how this amounts to a "pure driver's car". The cars are definitely good for what they are, but "pure" would be a bit of a stretch, unless you're only talking about the F1, which is so far removed from normal, that it's not representative of the brand as a whole.

    Come on Karun! Body roll doesn't influence weight transfer unless you're in a 2CV with 20 degrees of roll, and then only a little! Weight transfer during cornering is a function of G force, track widths and CG height. Roll moves the CG to the outside by a tiny little amount but the difference between a stiff and soft sportscar there is negligible.
