Having said that, this still sounds a lot like the wingeing “Sore Loser” syndrome.
Odd that none of the reputable motoring mags have not published a report on this pairing ?.
But thats just the thing the Model S will beat the Porsche hands down in the 1/4.
But it didnt ?.. ( 2 separate independent tests), TG repeated the run 5 times. Same result each time.
and has yet to show that it can !
Links?
The sensible thing to do is to wait until a “reputable” test is reported ( C&D , R&T, Motor, Autocar etc )
But this is not the first time. Last time Top Gear had it they pretended the Original roadster went dead when it still had >25% left.
They had 2 Roadsters on that test...both had failures that prevented them running,.. ( motor overheated, brake failure )
Musk winged about it then, and even tried to sue TG claiming fake reporting etc....
.. but the courts didnt agree and threw the case out !
Musk took his ball and went home.!
