The powerboat Hammond and May used to get from Kristiansand to Oslo broke down in the rough sea, so Hammond and May had to switch to the camera crew's boat. Clarkson wins the race in an odd twist of fate. Clarkson (in the car) would race Hammond and May (who primarily used a cruise ferry) from London to Oslo. The route took both parties from the Top Gear studios in Dunsfold to Monte Carlo. Clarkson is in the car, while Hammond & May are in the train. Additionally, Hammond and May had a late start due to May's pre-flight checks, and a whole lot of problems with their airways clearances resulted in them taking the long way around the Alps. The car won, possibly because May did not have his instrument rating and therefore could not fly after dark. The objective was to deliver a truffle from Alba, Italy, to a restaurant in Tower 42 in London. private plane (Cessna 182) flown by May, with Hammond riding shotgun.
