In 2011, the BBC's Top Gear had a segment at the Imola circuit, where Jeremy Clarkson, James May and Richard Hammond had to beat a time set on the track by a Ferrari 458, driven by "the Stig's Italian cousin," according to Clarkson. May drove a McLaren MP4-12C, Clarkson drove a Lamborghini Aventador, and Hammond drove a Noble M600. The time set in the Ferrari by the Stig was 1:56.6, and none of the men could beat that time.

Famous quotes containing the word media:
“The media no longer ask those who know something ... to share that knowledge with the public. Instead they ask those who know nothing to represent the ignorance of the public and, in so doing, to legitimate it.”
—Serge Daney (1944–1992)
“Never before has a generation of parents faced such awesome competition with the mass media for their children’s attention. While parents tout the virtues of premarital virginity, drug-free living, nonviolent resolution of social conflict, or character over physical appearance, their values are daily challenged by television soaps, rock music lyrics, tabloid headlines, and movie scenes extolling the importance of physical appearance and conformity.”
—Marianne E. Neifert (20th century)
