What happed on that last turn? The IS-F was killing it, either the driver is hopeless or the IS-F doesn't do too well against the RS4 in the bendy stuff.

My guess is that they weren't racing on the way back. The ISF is a beast in the twisties.

After watching it a few more times, this does indeed seem to be the case.

It looks like the ISF backed off to let it catch up then drag raced down the back stretch, where the ISF pulled away again. :-)
