Second, they can't show him crossing the line and pushing the button at the same time, so they have to show the button second; even if it was real, they'd have to do that. It's like showing the sled and the car crossing the line...just because they show the sled crossing first doesn't mean that the sled won...just that they can't show them both crossing together easily.

Richard Hammond: This is Lilyhammer in Norway! Me: Dette er Lillehammer i Norge!

Insane driving!!

Rob Dougan's "Speed Me Towards Death" and "Mona Lisa Overdrive" by Don Davis and Juno Reactor were the perfect choices for this clip. I'm still tingling from watching the race!

If anyone was wondering, the first song was Speed me Towards Death by Rob Dougan.
