  • Fifth Gear and Top Gear should team up and make something like "Final Gear", therefore resulting in twice the annual budget and twice as good challenges

  • fact is, you can buy the cbr secondhand for around 5K play around with it and achieve those speeds? good luck doing that with a car..

  • Would love to see a 1000cc vs an F1 car with KERS and DRS, F1 car would easily win though

  • Lol. 100 Engines for a GP season. Now they have 8 per driver. Honda would have been screwed, they were so unreliable.

  • Holy shit an AMS Alpha 12 (Nissan GT-R R35) is faster than the formula 1 car? :O under 9sec quarter mile!

  • It would have been fairer to have a full on 1000 cc moto gp bike>?

  • No bike, save for a bespoke drag bike will beat an f-1 car, off the line, top speed or around the twisty stuff.... It would win in heavy traffic though.

  • ha the boat has to have a rolling start coz everyone know's boats are wank

  • BLADE ON A BLADE!!! 

  • i dont know what type of motobike are they using but i think a max huge engine moto can beat F1 car .. This video would be more objecitve as  i see

  • @onder84 Honda CBR 1000RR-4 Fireblade

  • a bike will never win a drag race against an f1 car. The car has a higher top end speed. Bikes just have huge acceleration. A race round silverstone( both a motoGP and formula 1 track ) would be a better test

  • @Silencescreams32 you're slightly incorrect: an f1 car has a higher top end speed and a killer acceleration :D

  • @Silencescreams32 A bike will never win on a road course either, the F1 car's downforce will mean it destroys the bike in the corners.

  • Give a 46' skater with T-53 turbines a running start, it will win!!! Tops out at 190-195 mph. Do it with T-55 and a 50' Mystic, you'll be looking at a 205+mph boat.

  • F1 all the way baby!

  • lol -the f1 pulls away like nothing. when it get's really scary is when you take them on a track - then the f1 will make the bike look like a moped in reverse.

    all respect to bikes - i love them, but you got to fight in your own weight class.

  • sorry. the best a y2k suberbike will do under corrected circumstanses is 9.7's and more like 10 flats with a top rider aboard. these aren't perfect cond and the formula one car will still do low 9's so no a bike won't take it... drag or around a track. but for under 15 grand you can't beat the bike. it take huge money to beat the bike. course many people in modified cars beat bikes but it is usually the rider they are beating and not the bike.

  • A powerboat always will have the 'resistence'- factor of water, no matter how much power you give it (I think there are more powerful ones than the one here), and a bike will always have less friction and therefore traction in comparison with a car, there also the 'balance-issue' in cornering, for both the bike and the boat, and here also the car gets the advantage. The airplane, however, can never be beaten, these just go straight, getting anywhere they want.

  • they should have used a drag boat, or miss budweiser (chinook jet powered racing boat capable of 500+ km/h), but it was a Honda promotion. some boats can out corner cars, u should see jet boat racing inside trenches dug into a paddock. still if they used a top fuel drag rail it would have beaten anything.

  • Jet boats are great for a river. To be top dog in a drag race requires a propeller.

  • An F1 boat will corner harder than the bike or the car. 5gs I believe. An airplane/Jet will definitely prevail over all three.

    I don't know why they used a slow ass 4stroke honda powered outboard for the boat when a true f1 boat is generally a tunnel hull with a two stroke Mercury with nearly 450hp that could do the 1/4 mile in less than 9 seconds.

  • put the car against the y2k superbike,,the bike wud leave it in reverse

  • airplane?

  • honda are not procuders of airplane :-)

  • im a power car nut. but search in google for tomahawk bike and you fnd a moter bike with a massive engine in it. stick that agaisnt any f1 car and see who wins. lol

  • over 60 lap street circuit the F1 will lap the tomahawke about 20 times!!!! are you sure you are a car nut or a big BS artist.

  • hello car nut again, how about you do a little google and see that you retard of a bike only can do 0 - 60 in 2.5, most F1 cars do this 2 seconds or under. CAR NUT.

  • Take this test to a circuit and lets see who wins. The grip in the formula 1 will leave the two-wheeled toy in the dust.

  • if that was a proper powerboat it wud of smoke any of them...

  • nah i think land-related vehicles will always be faster given the proper proportion.

  • Damn!!!

  • i wanna see an F1 vs a Motogp from the 1000cc era... the bikes will kick the F1 ass... the Honda at the maximum of her development had 270 bhp!!! with a weight of 145 kilos!!! then on the corner maximum respect for the F1...

  • hahahaha. This boat speed is 130 km/h. Use boat from F-1 class to this experiment...

  • Exactly my thoughts

  • and then replace the F1 car with a

    NHRA Top Fuel Dragster? j/k

  • Nothing faster than a TF dragster in the quarter!!

    Bummer they don't go the whole quarter anymore.

  • I read that they restored it too the full quarter mile again.

  • All this shows is that the Formula One car isn't optimized for standing starts.

  • good point

  • Thanks,

    the F1 car did

    a nine second quarter mile?

    That is awesome!

  • No silly, an F1 boat will do the 1/4 in 9 sec. but they didn't use an F1 boat...they used a slugggo boat

  • A turbo Hyabusa would have thrashed the F1.

  • Would it fuck.

    Get the McLaren f1, with working anti-stall and hamilton would rip the shit out of a busa or a motogp bike.

    See how quickly Button accelerated away when he could use full power - ripped the shit out of it.

  • then again, at the time f1's had turbo they produced over 2000bhp and reached speeds exceeding 400km/h on a grand prix track(!)

  • get a moto gp bike there anyday and watch the results be different. The bike there is only a brittish championship bike compared to a formular 1 car. get the bike equalvalent and it would be so much better

  • yeah duh, use Rossi on a RC211V or Stoner on his Ducati
