Episode Description
Clarkson attempts to beat Hammond and May to a luxury hotel in Verbier by driving a Ferrari 612 Scaglietti, while his co-presenters travel by commercial airline and Swiss rail in an effort to arrive first. Elsewhere in the episode, classic racing cars are pitted against modern showroom models, and a Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution takes on a professional bobsleigh team in a unique winter sports challenge. Back at the Top Gear Test Track, Renault’s Formula One car attempts to complete a lap in under one minute, and comedian Eddie Izzard is the Star in a Reasonably Priced Car, setting a time in the Suzuki Liana.
Episode Introduction
"On tonight's show, it's all about challenges. Which can get down a mountain the fastest, a rally car or a bobsleigh? Are modern showroom cars faster than racing cars from not that long ago? And can a Formula 1 Renault get around our track in less than a minute?"

Driving back to UK it looks like as he is driving the opposite direction. Most likely just filling in some more b-roll shots of highway driving.

This one is a bit off pattern as it is so close to the destination but not at night. Seems like they are taking additional shots at another time, maybe the next day.

The shots between this one and the previous were very out of order, will still need to identify those.
