Matt LeBlanc overtook Mr. Bean as the fastest "Star in a Reasonably Priced Car"

Back in Series 17 of Top Gear, Mr. Bean, or should we say Rowan Atkinson, rattled the Top Gear Test Track in 1:42.2, making him the fastest star in a reasonably priced Kia. However, on Series 18 Episode 2 of Top Gear (the one with The Stig's Chinese cousin on it), a celebrity named Matt LeBlanc stepped in, lapped round the Top Gear Test Track and, if you're sitting down, overtook Mr. Bean's lap time, making Matt LeBlanc the current leader of Top Gear's Star in a Reasonably Priced Car with the lap time of 1:42.1! Unbelievable! Mr. Bean's going to be upset about Matt LeBlanc's lap time!

Although, we can't show the S18Ep2 clip due to constraints, here's the behind the scenes footage of Matt LeBlanc roared through the corners of the Top Gear Test Track.
