    He did a thread about it on pistonheads but doesn't go into the options in too much detail. His car does have the 4 on board cameras.

    Speciale's big brother has arrived - PistonHeads

    AMG bosses said that a hypercar is not in the cards.

    The current 'overseas arrival' in Canada edition of Auto Motor und Sport magazine featured a multi page article of driving impressions for the red LaFerrari press car.

    Yikes at 4.22. Huge props to Manuma for driving his (? $3million) car in these conditions.

    +950bhp for Manu, as usual :-D.
    That is the 'real' black prancing horse.

    Matt just posted this on mclife:

    Just to throw something else into the laptime mix that no one has picked up on, when the LaF beat the P1 at Anglesea on the same PZCS tyres the mclaren had a brand new set as it rolled out of the lorry at the track. My LaF had a set of tyres on it that had already done 3000 miles of which two were track days, so they were certainly not at their best performance wise. Certainly with a new set like the P1 it would have been quicker. Jethro also did not push my car as hard as the 918 and P1 as it was not a factory car, as they didn't fancy a large insurance claim if it all went wrong.

    The LaF and P1 lap were set on the same day within 3 hours of each other.

    Case closed then. Now we only have to see who is faster between LaF and the 918 on similar tyres

    Ouch. Makes you wonder how much faster it can go on new tires and being pushed 100%. 1s? 2?

    Does gtspirit have a clue... Do they seriously think an F1 driver, the current F1 champ to boot, needs to play the F games to secure a car...

    So:

    1.12.4 918 by EVO Jethro Bovington on fresh Michelin Sport Cup 2
    1.12.6 Mclaren P1 by EVO Jethro Bovington on fresh Pirelli Zero Corsa.


    1.11.2 P1 on Pirelli Trofeo R.

    You know what's so ironic about that ranking?
    That's how most of the driving reviews ranked their favorite.
