Default Honda's ASIMO and an F1 car

What do you think, could ASIMO drive an F1 car?

I think he could.

It's been known to barely stand up and fall over sometimes. They don't have it's response time calibrated very well. Drive an F1 car that covers hundreds of feet per second? I don't think so. I'll bet it can't even walk and chew gum at the same time.

I know people who can't do those two either! Maybe that's not the best test?
