None of the racing leagues..F1, Rally, GT & GTE & Stock Racing advocates that the fastest car will win. It may & does dominate the race but does not guarantee a race win. Moreover racing has nothing to do between with top speed. Its all about consistency and strategy. Average speed is more valued. In essence & with facts taken directly from the recent Blancpain GT race at Spa, the BMW won over Audi & Aston because they were more consistent with their lap and pit times. They strategized their positions within the circuit in the last 10 closing laps such that they would always have open stretches ahead of them while the others would fight traffic. The Audis however set the fastest lap times signifying they had the faster cars.

The only races where top speed is all that counts and makes a case for the fastest car on the track is drag & autocross racing.
