damn he got a 60 euro fine. that's like what, 400 USD now? still doesn't compare with the shame of buying the worlds fastest road car only to get smoked by a much cheaper car. (kidding)

Maybe the Veyron didn't use the second key to access all 1001hp?

There is surface repair work underway and is reduce to a 2 lanes highway and the both cars were just racing in and out of traffic against each other. There wasn't any open road for any kind of horsepower pull up for the Veyron tho.

Actually that fine costs 60 British Pounds, which is about $120. That's still cheaper than my ticket driving 90 MPH in San Bernardino County, weird.

The Bugatti should've just drove off lol
