An interesting thing that we need to note about Nurburging times is that, well, they don't really tell us all that much.

Think about it.

One lap of the Nurburgring is LONG. There are a lot of places to make mistakes, so even for the best drivers it's very difficult to get the "perfect" lap. I would say it is probably fair to assume that a great driver leaves at least a few seconds on the table even on their best lap. So if we are looking at a car that runs 7:40 and another that runds 7:35... they are in effect the same thing.

Still pretty damn cool to see what numbers they can put down, though.
