Not ignorant at all - they're not professional racers after all... However, both Barker and Meaden have just completed some serious events, Barker at a sportscar series in Spa-Francochamps (they came 2nd, if I recall) behind the wheel of a Caterham 260 and Meaden at the Nurburgring 24 Hrs behind the wheel of a works drive (not too shabby for a little moto-journo eh?) Maserati Gransport Tropheo. No, these guys are in the Horst von Saurma league as the pinnacle of motoring journos. Only Tiff and Stevo Sutcliff rate higher in my opinion.

More that just track temperature, 7.3 AMG, but air temperature, humidity and atmospheric pressure have a significant influence on an engine's performance - especially naturally aspirated (as in the case of the RS4) engines.
