Same is true for most cars on tarmac - the sideways mode only really works on gravel as you effectively gain a extra clutch.

No way!!!!!!!! Clarkson comes from the Tiff Needle school of driving , i.e. the more sideways a car is , the faster it must be going.

Ahhh so that why so many Scandinavians never won rallies ;-)......different surfaces, different styles Andy. Some like going round and round in circles (gettinglostafobia) where as some need to be told which way the road goes (dontlikebeingaloneafobia).

Sideways to Victory. rofl

Tiff at least knows how to drive. I've no idea if Clarkson can really drive or, as I suspect, much of what you see on TG is all smoke and mirrors.

Sort of, he is not mechanically sympathetic and appears incapable of driving smoothly. I'd not lend him a car.
