Can This AMG Make Me Faster Than a Pro Driver? | Autotrader

What happens when a normal driver goes head to head with a professional race driver in the same car, on the same track? In this video, we put the Mercedes-AMG GT 63 Pro to the test in a straight lap-time battle. One flying lap each. Same conditions. Same tyres. Same rules. The only difference is the person behind the wheel. The question is not whether a pro driver is faster. We already know that. The real question is whether modern performance cars like this can help close the gap. Can the engineering, grip, braking, and stability of the GT 63 Pro give a normal driver a fighting chance on track? We break down the lap times, talk through where time is gained and lost, and explore what this result says about how accessible high-performance cars have become. Looking for a new car?
