How not to test drive a jag.



http://www.flurl.com/uploaded/One_Ja...er__49814.html

It's from Autocar, that's their road test editor Steve Sutcliffe, the F1 driver was the Jag test driver, Pizzonia. Sutcliffe drove their F1 car, the R4 round the same track in Spain, Jerez? & was some distance behind the guys times.

pizzonia think all jags are as quick??

The car seemed to hold up to that battering pretty well.

Unconventinal crash test dummies though.

Was nice to see the first thing Steve Sutcliffe did is check Pizzona was ok. Think I would have given him a slap.
