Fastest Ever Recorded Lap at Mount Panorama, Bathurst - In Car with Allan Simonsen

Danish sports car ace, Allan Simonsen sets the fastest ever recorded time around the most difficult Australian circuit -- Mount Panorama, Bathurst -- just two hours drive west from Sydney.
It's the latest specification Michelotto Ferrari 458 GT3, prepared by Maranello Motorsport, in Melbourne.
Simonsen is no stranger to racing a Ferrari 458 GT3, having campaigned a Le Mans Series GTE-Pro spec variant last year throughout Europe and the 24 Hours of Le Mans with podium results.
The very same car started from pole at the 2011 24 Hours of Nürburbring, with Allan onboard.
Sit back and enjoy how much quicker this Italian machine is around The Mountain, than a V8 Supercar.
And just for the record, Allan claimed third place last year in the Pepsi Max Commodore at the Bathurst 1000 V8 Supercar race, alongside Greg Murphy.
Those Danish are really quite versatile drivers!

There is no perfect lap. Just in motorsport the fastest sector times combined. But a "normal" perfect lap doesn't exist.

Perfect lap, without braking markers too, so smooth and yet on the limit constantly this is how it's done. Flat through the Kink which is always an indicator, RIP Allan.

This lap is pretty awesome, but I’ve just watched Scott McLachlin do a 2:03.8 at Bathurst in a V8 supercar, and it was very impressive, considering he placed 2 wheels in the dirt at the top of the mountain.

What a beautiful video, a classic track and a beloved driver in a nice car. RIP Allan. This Mount Panorama Track is a beauty, a true driver's track from the past eras, I'm glad it's still alive. Interestingly enough, I came here through the search for "Mount Panorama onboard". Last week, I was searching for "Le Mans onboard", and guess who was there? Yes, Allan Simonsen in a beautiful and fast lap around the full La Sarthe classic.

Wow.. I've watched all types of machines climb the mountain, with every sort of driver for the past 31 years.... But this is homage to a true artist at work.... "Race car" and "graceful" rarely find them selves in the same sentance... but this 3:22 clip is a staple to a legacy that will echo the ages... Though we all come from different corners of the map, we will be united by our love for making things go fast.... Lest we forget.... R.I.P racing gods of the mountain....

The F1 lap was made during a promotional event for Vodafone Australia (Vodafone sponsor one of the teams in the Australian touring car championship as well as F1). You're correct, Bathurst is not an F1 racing circuit. However it does host Australia's largest racing event, the Bathurst 1000. It's held during the first weekend in October every year, this year is the 50th anniversary of it running. (I don't know if Denmark broadcasts the Bathurst 1000 but I highly recommend that you watch it!)

The V8 Supercars regularly clock 300kph (186mph) going down Conrod Straight, considering that the Ferrari 428 GT3 in this video has a faster lap time it would most probably equal or surpass the top speed of even the fastest V8 Supercar.

Congratulations to Allen and the Ferrari team for providing an excellent car/driver combination for this performance. The Lambo was right on the heals of the Ferrari but still the Fazza ticks the number one box. Will it be beaten next year with the newer quicker GT3's in B12hr qualy? There is a thought.. As for the V8SC loosers, V8SC is a formula for tight racing. They are not the quickest, never will be without politics managing every other car out there.A place is better than nothing at all.

It's a Ferrari 458 GT3 race car. It's not just a modified Ferrari. It is a purpose build race car to meet GT3 regulations, just like V8 supercars have to meet certain regulations. Those regulations are different, and that is where the difference in lap times come from.

There's no doubting Mount Panorama's legendary status as a racing circuit. But, unlike one or two tracks with status based on _where_ they are rather than _what_ they are, Bathurst is legendary because it's such a challenge. On another note, it's interesting looking at the official and unofficial lap records, the times slowly being chipped away. With all due respect to the Supercars and sports cars teams & drivers, it's funny to see them all going balls out, year after year, slowly moving closer to the magical 2 minutes flat. Then one day along comes Jenson Button in a 2008 McLaren and, driving well within himself, pulls a 1:48. If ever you'd wondered, like I had, how F1 cars would do at Bathurst, that 1:48 is a fairly bold, yet simple response.
