Awesome find! Really shows how the LF-A carves through corners like butter and how it's on a totally different performance level compared with the IS-F.

If you look carefully in the beginning of the LF-A portion that the LF-A is about to pass the IS-F on the left with ease.

Indeed. Next time they should film the LF-A passing an R8 with similar ease (and it should).

By the way, did the LF-A almost lose control at 3:53, when it tried to avoid collision with the slow hatch?

Yes, I saw that. Looked almost as if the IS-F was barely moving as the LF-A passed it. That's how big the performance gap (on the track) between the two is .

Looking closely, it seemed like the LF-A simply did a sharp overtaking move rather than was about to lose control.
