Not a surprise, I mean the man knows how to change his clothes whilst driving to the dentist
-
Surely this is a child's play for a person who can drive a car sitting on a sofa on top of the car.
-
"You're the fastest man ever on Top Gear Sir." "Yes I can see that Bough."
-
Let’s all not gloss over the fact that Rowan Atkinson felt he did “ok but not great”. So how fast would he have been if he’d driven well?
-
Imagine getting an email saying mr bean has beaten your racing time
-
unsatisfied with every corner seems like his driving is casual beats everyone else thats mr bean for you
-
I can see a Mr Bean skit where he's driving around trying to find his hotel. Accidentally ends up on a race track and starts overtaking professional drivers left and right while obliviously looking around for anything that resembles a hotel. Half way through his car seems to be making a clunking sound. So he drives into a pit stop thinking it's a mechanic. The crew impressed with him, changes his wheels and fills up his car. Mr Bean impressed with the speedy service gives one of the crew a tip before driving off.

i think this is the cleanest lap i’ve ever seen on tg
-
I love how he looks Goofy and classy at the same time.
-
When u realize Mr.Bean is faster in a car than Ethan Hunt
-
This guy is just born with the ability to make people laugh even when he's not trying and we all love it.
-
The fact that he really does have some pretty serious driving experience and was still able to act silly while driving that course should tell people that he is one of the greatest comedians ever.
-
I like the fact that he's not as silly or as comical in real life as he is in his roles. He's a very well spoken, intelligent man who has an immense talent for making people laugh.
-
He could've driven faster if he used 1977 British Leyland Mini 1000 Mark 4 with an armchair on top.
-
Rowan had a stuttering problem which contibuted to him limiting his talking in his early career but later recognized that by letting his visual expressions and actions talk for him he was able to reach a much wider audience with his comedic genius. Other than the “Mr Bean” character he played other roles where he was extremely verbal and articulate
-
When Rowan's OK lap was exaclty the same as Daniel Ricciardo's
-
The best part of this was Atkinson saying "floppiness".
-
The man who made the world laugh without uttering a single word other than " Bean " is the fastest driver as well . That's a sleeper cell right there
-
Lol, he broke the record while cracking jokes along the way, legend
-
He's actually an Engineer , he choosed Comedy over his accomplished degree. Smartest decision for him ever. Greatest Comedian of the world.
