Sabine cooked her food on the INTAKE manifold of her Audi, and yet it supposedly cooked through. And wouldn't Sabine and Evans' food have gotten cold by the time Matt showed up? Best part was when Evans burned his hand on the exhaust. But the whole thing was a mess. They hardly talked about their cars. Sabine, as much as I love her, seemed awkward and forced, they showed her giggling way too much, and everything Matt says and does reeks of being scripted. They didn't even explain why they had to push start the bike. And in the end, they really didn't give a good comparison of the cars. Supposedly, since Sabine blew most of her money on her car and had to run the last leg, she was going to lose. But instead, this consequence caused her to win the race. However, the point of the challenge was to travel in luxury, and sprinting through Venice in the dark defeats the purpose.
Harris's review of the Vulcan was alright, but nothing really stood out. The Naughty Times board is fucking stupid. And if they're gonna use it, they should include all the times Clarkson had to throw out for cars that weren't road-legal. SIARPC was agonizingly drawn-out, as we've come to expect.
Had my hopes up after the last episode, but this was a massive step backwards. The only salvation was Rory's Tesla bit. Woulda given it a 3/10, but I give it a 5 thanks to Rory and Chris.
