the tortoise often wins... although 35mpg doesn't seem too great for a Smart. Also proves once again that sat-nav isn't all it's cracked up to be.

Nice one guys, Good to see a SMART CAR win. When it is totally out of it's depth. I always wanted TOP GEAR to do a Race Between A Smart Car and a High Performance car, Say from Central London To Edinbrough. Must stick to the SPEED LIMITS and see who gets there first and by what margin.

Smart is not very aerodynamical - its a bow with wheels.

With the format of the race, any benefit a supercar could possibly offer is lost. Without the handling or performance of the vehicle coming into play I have to question why even drive cars. Give a bunch of competitors a map and make them walk their way across a city and you have basically the same thing. I always thought they moved this event to Europe because of the lower speed limits in the US. Seems to be a rather one-dimensional race compared to the movie.

That is so awesome. smart cars are great. I have the new one, 1.0L Turbo. Love it. They really do have more performance than most people expect.
