"...It is extremely exciting. I think the best film we've ever made. Unfortunately, it will be spoiled because I shall have to spend the next few weeks explaining how these races are filmed to a bunch of people who imagine they're staged, scripted and pre-ordained. Of course, the routes are carefully planned so the result will be close but it is impossible to guess what will actually happen after the flag drops. You may notice if you watch carefully, the on board cameras in the GTR were flickering red and green. But did we stop to fix them? Did we hell as like..." - Jeremy Clarkson
Awesome as usual
I wonder who would have won if he hadn't gotten lost for 45 minutes and hadn't been speeding.

Even if neither of the three made mistakes, it would still be pretty close.
And Jeremy was lucky considering he didn't get any traffic in Tokyo.
Some of it must be fake to build the suspense, but it was still something entertaining to watch.
I don't like how speeding was presented as something "you don't usually do" even though its there FOR A REASON, to not risk any human lives.

That's not true, that's what everyone seems to think yet Clarkson made it perfectly clear in a blog of his or something that the only thing staged about it was the route.
Also, these guys make a living out of driving all sorts of cars, they're experienced drivers, I think they know what they're doing.
Awesome, things like this are why i love top gear, even if i never get a chance to watch it.
