I know it’s just a silly video but I believe they used an H2R which is the non-street legal version of the H2.

Red Bull has done similar videos in the past and came out on top so I don’t know that they’d throw a race for the sake of throwing a race.



Very little real world difference between the two models .
A F-1 car vs H2R - no comparison in performance .
The F-1 eased off the line and waited for the bike - all a put on or something wrong with the car . A Tesla - passing a F-1 car - laf .
Motorcycles are NOT aerodynamic like people would think .
There's an old school aero body thing known as a ''Dustbin Fairing'' it's an old fuel tank from WWII bombers , when the fuel in the tank was gone the plane jettison the tank to cut weight and drag . Old school Salt Flats racers bought the old tanks and fabbed motorcycle fairings out of them and added many MPH to the bikes .

A guy put a Dustbin Fairing on a yamaha R-6 600cc sportbike he was passing 1000cc bikes at Daytona -no problem - proof that motorcycles aren't aerodynamic . Over revving 6th gear bad - if he had taller gear he could have really blasted them .
F-1 car = extremely aerodynamic .

Lots of youtube video of GTR/Corvette/Lambo/Supra/GT Fords turbos racing stetched turbocharged Hyabusa's - cars win more often than not . Generalisation - a 1000HP car will out run any factory bike H2/H2R/hyabusa/ninja et.al.

What many bike racers seem to forget or not realise is if they get beside a car and behind a little bit - running in the 'bad air' coming off a car even if the bike is faster it can't fight through the bad air .
Like nascar 'get in line' or get left behind .
