What "Fifth Gear" 1-th episode about
In this episode of Fifth Gear Tiff Needell and Vicki Butler-Henderson take part in a unique car v plane challenge. Nigel Lamb is the current Red Bull Air Race champion, which makes him the airborne equivalent of Lewis Hamilton. His MX2 aircraft is Formula 1 quick as well. But Tiff and Vicki also have a very special machine, a £300,000 Lamborghini Aventador. Once Vicki has experienced a ride in Nigel's plane, and Nigel has had a spin in the Lamborghini, it's time for them to go head to head. The aircraft is faster, but the car can turn tighter. The result is very close.
