I think he was getting on the gas, there just wasn't that much gas to get
on.

the elise driver looked timid (and nervous too), judging from how late he
was getting on the gas and never seemed to test the limits of the car.
(understandable at the ring with its 174 turns) when he misses a shift he
has plenty of time to fix it and still turn in, and mid corner he was able
to slam on the gas, back off and and slam it on again without any steering
correction. so no surprise he didnt catch the vette sooner. my 2 sents.
