Here’s The McLaren P1 Clocking An Average Speed Of 178 km/h At Nurburgring [VIDEO]
10 Dec 2013 by Jasmine Stone in Cars, World
The McLaren P1 has just cruised around the famed Nurburgring in less than seven minutes. If that doesn’t strike you as newsworthy – consider that seven minutes around the 12,9-mile track equals an average speed of about 178km/h.
Yup.
McLaren hasn’t confirmed the exact time, but it could well beat the 6min 57sec lap completed by a Porsche 918 Spyder in September 2013.
The P1 was driven by Chris Goodwin, McLaren’s chief test driver, who said that:
The track is like the rollercoaster from hell. However, the car feels balanced and poised throughout, and inspires you to push on with the levels of grip and all-round ability.
The acceleration from the Aremberg right hander down the Fuchsröhre is absolutely amazing. I have only experienced acceleration like this before in a Formula 1 car.
