Its more like a fact rather confidence. Take into consideration how fast Iron Man can fly, and then watch how slow both racers are in the movie in comparison. Also, note the number of turns in the roads and the elevation. Iron Man can fly in a straight line from start to finish. I am confident that he would be at the end before the spanking occurs, but I am 100% sure of the fact that he would win anyway.
