Don't let the facts spoil a good tabloid sensational story!
But 180kph is 'only' 112mph - he was going faster than that I think (briefly)

I wouldn't have said he's doing much over 112-120. That was certainly nowhere near 180mph.

Maybe he's got a speedo healer, and he's deliberately notched it up to make it look like he's going faster.

I know a number of members of this very forum were going to do the very same thing, albeit at about 20mph...

Would be funny to send the footage to the Sun! Smile

The 106 was in the fastlane though so no way was someone doing 62mph in the fastlane.

Could you set a speedo healer to show real speed under a certain speed such as under 100mph?
