Ye, I know their necks are stronger. But it's also because the other guy is not the driver.
The fact that e.g. rollercoasters or fast cars feel slower after a while is because your body knows whats gonna happen and automatically reacts to it
I'm sure to some extent you're right, but there is no denying that the difference is big. Hakkinnens head is planted while the other guy is all over the place (in all directions)

That car is useless unless there is a F1 driver at the wheel.

Obviously to get the most out of it you need to be a damn good driver but I think anyone who is competent behind the wheel would have a lot of fun!

Jezza spent 10 minutes spinning in circles around the track and it's not like you can call him a novice driver.

The Evo guy just trashed it in a straight line.

Most of us here and the rest of the world would probably launch it into the closest wall 5 seconds after taking the wheel.

Have a few track days with an instructor and you would be fine.

Just don't drive like Jeremy does!

Uhm, it's mainly because hakkinen knows when he hits the throttle, so he can react.....

Not really. Racing drivers have to go through rigorous neck training to cope with the g-forces. It's noticeable in F1 when drivers go in an anti-clockwise direction on a few tracks as one side of the neck is stronger than the other. Normal people rarely do this training so cannot hold their neck as straight.
