Honestly this makes F1 cars look even more impressive, given that they took the Spa lap record back not long after, and the gap wasn't that large to begin with considering this was a no-reg car against F1 which is heavily regulated.
The simulations for the 919 EVO Nürburgring lap time showed a time of 4:30. The human is indeed the limiting factor here. If the Ring record will ever be beaten again, then it will be done by an AI. Great video by the way!

Gordon Murray said in some interview that if anyone came up and beat the record, Porsche would set a new record anytime after that. It's their own playground.
so when are they going back to spa? F1 cars already knocked 5 tenths off their record there last year. what i want is for Mercedes or red bull to make one of these no rules monsters. like the redbull x2010
i clicked on this video without knowing the channel is run by a racer, and hearing him drop the 'it didnt break my record lol' line caught me completely off guard great video!
Now imagine if mercedes f1 didn't have any rules or limitations. They would easily make much better car and then they will put Levis in that car and they would easily beat porsche. Forget that they could just make some minor adjustments on their f1 that wouldn't nead to be with in the f1 rules and they would easily beat porsche.
Actually, that lap record from Spa has already been beaten since Q2 in 2018 (!!) by cars which were built very much under regulated rules. Sebastian Vettel (Ferrari SF71H, 1:41.501), Lewis Hamilton (Mercedes W09, 1:41.533) and Kimi Räikkönen (Ferrari SF71H, 1:41.553) beat the time set by Porsche in Q2, before rain hindered them from setting even faster times in Q3. Also, just now (29 August 2020), Lewis obliterated that record once more with his monstrous Mercedes-AMG F1 W11 EQ Performance! He achieved a new lap record with an 1:41.252 (!!), more than half a second quicker than Neel Jani. Furthermore, Valtteri Bottas in the second Mercedes was also slightly quicker. I think this shows you just how incredible these F1 machines are when even a completely unregulated Porsche can't come close to the times set by cars which operate well within a set of regulations. That's F1.
Interesting info. Still with all that tech, the margins between lap records are slim. To really know which vehicle is truly better we need these vehicles to be remotely operated eliminating the onboard driver. This would provide a more accurate assessment of the performance of the hardware.
@@citizendc9 ? what, but you are aware that a racing driver of the class of hamilton or even the once who drove the porsche. are some of the bets in the world, what they can do better then all the others are consistency. so aslong as both get driven by humens it doesnt matter, what does matter is air pressure, air conidiotn, wind, temperature, hight over sea and so on. The difference you get between differnt drivers is minimal. and btw 0.2-0.4 s difference is alot, just put it in lenth in meters and its alot with this speed.
@@citizendc9 Remotely operated? So your saying a F1 car with the driver back in the pits driving the car with a video game like interface is going to be what? Faster (not a chance)? more consistant at some speed slower than 10/10? - maybe , but if your not all out, how do you judge which is faster? Or were you thinking that a computer in the car is going to drive faster than a human F1 driver? Someday a computer might drive one of these cars faster than an average human, maybe someday faster than an average human racer (although I think, a long , long time from now, like 30 years), or that a computer is going to be faster than the best F1 driver in the world (I don't know how to bet here. maybe in a 100 years. I don't know maybe it will be possible someday. I won't live to see it [but I only have 30 or so years left]).
@@brynnrogers5081 i believe what he is saying is that by having the same driver's that operate the vehicles on board now operating them remotely with a set up similar to video games (steering wheels with force feedback and paddle shifters, foot pedals, etc) can now negate the effects of g forces on the driver. This is something that could actually have a huge impact on a lap time as it was mentioned in this video that the g forces in the Porsche reached upwards of 4g on the driver's head and neck. It may not be a traditional way to drive a race car and if it does start to happen it will be frowned upon by motor sport purists, but finding any way to maximize speed by eliminating the negative effects of atmospheric pressures is what the engineering behind this sport is all about.
@@jakub-kube gravity in any direction is acceleration. And "lateral" means that the force is sideways. Ie. it's a metric of cornering. These cars can't pull such high G's just going forwards, only under braking and laterally in corners
919 Evo, despite without rules, still using the same component, the restrictions they bypassed are like Fuel flow, ERS deployment (iirc drivers on LMP1 must use ERS carefully to avoid being penalized) and electric power output + DRS
@@gmdascensia These rules all apply to F1 also, Cars are limited to certain amounts of ERS usage, DRS only on certain straights and fuel flow restrictions. Take that all away and the unregulated F1 car would be running rings around the 919.
@@curtiswhyte3297 what I'm saying it's not like they upgrade everything, another reason is because both F1 and LMP1 serve different purposes I don't think F1 cars can survive running 24 hours non stop, yet alone a bit of contact and it's a game over, LMP1 car can even sometimes drag themselves to the pit even after heavy crash
@@curtiswhyte3297 do you think an F1 car, take an example either RB18 or F1-75 unregulated with the exact same component can beat 919 on 12 hours of spa?
@Yung Jxhno The irony is that they would want to cover up the wheels much like a prototype car. But yeah, a mash up of a prototype car and an F1 car without any restrictions would be absolutely bonkers.
Yeah true... but on the other hand the Porsche's whole design is based arround 24h endurance racing and F1 is max 300km/2h car. So i would say in hot laps the F1's base design is generally more favored.
@Yung Jxhno 1400? F1 cars had 1400 hp 34 years ago from a 1.5l turbo 4 pot. Just imagine taking off all that electric shit and installing a proper 3-4l turbo V12.

And that's for an experienced driver who already had well-developed neck muscles, way more than a non-racer would. Would have taken a whole lot more than 2 months for any of us to develop that kind of neck strength.
4.5g? Fighter Pilots be like: Ha! My daily warmup! Edit: Yes, stupid comment. I didn't think it over beforehand. But I researched and learned some more knowledge. Racing drivers are having it worse even though they statisticly need to endure lower G-Forces. Reason you may ask? In a Car, the G-Forces mainly constrain the Y-axis (Horizontal/to left and right) and X-axis (Horizontal/to front and rear) while Fighter Pilots mainly edure Z-axis (Vertical/on Up and Down). On Z-axis force your Spine and Neck are stabalycing you, on X and Y your muscles have to take over that part.
Wtf the way you explain everything and the graphics along with it makes even someone like me who only has barely any mechanical knowledge and just getting into learning about racing and how cars/bikes work. Subbed to you once I was about 30 seconds into the Performance section, could tell Ima learn a lot from this channel, so glad I just found you!!
My first (and last) lesson in pronunciation regarding Porsche dates back to the early 80's when my close friend's father (Dr. Ruff) corrected me when I commented about his cool new car. He stressed the second phonetic syllable (yes... there are 2) and made me feel an inch tall. I've never forgotten it.
It's important to note that the Spa recird is still held by F1 as last year's F1 cars took the record again Also all the other track recirds that F1 cars compete in are still owned by F1 cars. It'a disengenious not to mention that the car only beat a few F1 records and that all of those records have been retaken
I think the car gets a bit too much attention given what was put into it. I mean, you took world-class engineers to work on a car without regulations, only to match F1 with their own regulations.
@@rainonedavid3564 It was mostly the same car. The drivetrain (with engine) was still the same. They didnt build a new car, they just used the car they had and made it a lot faster.
@BoltMix Its a story how they build a car that is faster. Nobody expects it still is. Do you write that too on every story about "old" cars? "How Bugatti build a car that is faster than x km/h." "BUT IT ISNT ANYMORE!" Thats a different story...
Wow, what a beautifully done video. Fantastic commentary and visuals. This was in my recommended list on RUclips for so long, and I finally decided to watch it. Worth every second!
They didn't really try to hard to beat that record. They didn't have the one-off tyres on the car, just off-the-shelf tyres. The driver, Tandy, never even drove the car before trying the record at Brand Hatch. And they still got to 0.1 seconds of Scotts record. I'm quite sure the Evo can do low 36 or high 35 second runs on that track in that layout, WITH the right driver and tyres.
@@gillhantson5318 And on a track like Brands Hatch, a modern F1 car would destroy that record. The Evo is mainly built for fast tracks. Nearly beating a 16 year old F1 car with a driver that has never competed in any of the Formula-seriesis not really something to brag about these days.
6:04 "Brands Hatch, where I actually have the outright lap record"... "for the Indy circuit son. For the Indy circuit" - Nigel Mansell, lap record holder for the Brands Hatch GP circuit.
Porsche isnt as good in Elektro engines/ hybrid engines. I could see Audi taking the fight to Mercedes as they are already doing great stuff in FE and do built good engines
@@formulafish1536 Yeah but regarding that an F1 season is limited to about 140 million next year for 1 team and Porsche and Audi are FE teams which together cost 80-90 million a year and can win in FE instantly, it is unlikely they will join F1 even though there werw talks between Audi and F1 for a very short time at the end of 2017
And pronouncing an 's' in Le Mans. I have to admit I stopped the video. he started out reading like a kid in school then got kind of shouty... And must have said 'Porsh' about 100 times!

I think f1 needs to have further expanding regulations. If this car can do what it does, then f1 is no longer the pinnacle of Motorsport that it once was. This needs to change. However, this may result in worse racing, thus leading to the dilemma that f1 has always had. Faster cars or better racing.
f1 has banned so many technologies over the years though, if all of those were to be made legal again or just all put into a project/concept car then i doubt there would even be a driver capable of driving the thing to it's maximum. i mean really just imagine. -4 wheel drive -active suspension -double diffuser -exhaust blown diffuser -f duct -unregulated aero (flexi wings included) -covered wheels -ground effects -fan car and a litany of other things i simply cannot remember. they could no doubt easily make a car that can lap on average 10 seconds faster at every circuit...probably more. 1st question is who would drive the thing? porsche had to break tons of rules for this tribute car, but that's fine it was never going to race anyway and the car is the same from the racing one just with some liberties taken. i struggle to find any team that would forward the money required for an f1 tribute car though, it would have to be built from the ground up. f1 regs are pretty good as they are right now, actually pleased that the 2021 regs have been pushed back thanks to covid.
F1 cars would be faster again if they did this though. Much faster. Also, that Spa lap time has since been beaten by Raikkonen, Vettel, and Hamilton. If F1 races at Spa in 2021, then I wouldn't bet against the Mercedes lapping way faster.
IMHO F1 cars should be designed based on the circuit specs. Modern F1s require tracks that are very diffrent from the classic circuits, just look at what Tilke designed in the last 20 years. All the great circuits are becoming obsolete in the name of what? I say slower cars and f**k the records, the first race Shumi won in Ferrari was in wet Catalunya, 2 mins per lap, low grip and overtakes on every corner. That's pure racing!
@@migracing8232 foolish? He is correct. The car was faster than F1. Nobody said it still is. You could also say how Ford build a car faster than Ferrari at Le Mans. (Its a good story.) Thats still correct. Nobody said Ford is still faster.
@@migracing8232 it actually doesn't as it did achieve the goal to be faster than any existing F1 car, the laps done in F1 cars that beat it came later (i.e not an existing F1 car at the time of the record)
Lars St. He was correct in 2017, but you can no longer claim the car is “faster than an F1 car” if the latest and greatest F1 cars are still faster. Vettel beat the Porsche’s time by 3 tenths, literally 3 weeks later. What he should say, is faster than a 2017 F1 car. What makes it worse is the fact that this took place 2 years ago, and to claim it’s faster without specifying 2017, would be incorrect.
@@avatar94100 that is exactly what the works drivers, all of them, are saying. They can’t physically keep up with the machine. I was a go-kart racer and my biggest limitation to going as fast as the machine could was my body that could not handle the violent g forces and mind you a kart seldom peaks over 3 g. Try a very fast car with HUGE downforce and the limit is the driver’s physique. But what do I know...
@@skyelark155 no he’s a works driver that is used to driving the 919 in endurance configuration. Less powerful and with far less sophisticated aero that generates less g’s. Do you actually listen to the video or just troll the comments sections?
I think the driver would be the limiting factor then. Just imagine what a 1100 hp F1 car can do around a track with restriction, without restriction that 1100 will become 1400 and things like active suspension, max boost, maximum fuel flow, drs open full the full lap. Everything being considered, spa will get lapped under 1:25 sec
Lars St. If I play you in a game of Checkers and I beat you, then we play 3 more times and you beat me 3 times. Can I say I’m still better than you at checkers just because I beat you once, even though you beat me 3 times after that? Of course not, you would be better since you had just beaten me. Same goes for this, the Porsche WAS faster but because it’s old information, you’ve got to update it and keep it accurate. It was soundly beaten in 2018, F1 will always be the fastest around a track.
indeed, i slogged through the entire video and he never mentions that the 919 record has already been retaken by f1 cars. what a terrible clickbait video with garbage research
@@Senekha86 You know, if you just put the emphasis that it was built faster than the 2017 F1 car, we would understand. Just stating F1 in general, makes it sound like 919 is still the faster car than F1 up to now.
This just confirmed that Bellof was in another dimension 36 years ago: he set the Nurburgring record in a rules restricted, race setup car. The Evo had all sorts of technology assists, tires and weight reductions that gave Timo Bernhardt advantages unavailable to Bellof. Wild!
Sergio Perez was out-qualified by his team mate Lance (spoiled rich kid) Stroll. Reason, Perez was feeling dizzy and unwell from all the g-forces. Normally by the time they got to the high downforce tracks they would have had a few good races already, but this year was obviously different.
@stev ano the problem i have with stroll is that he often seems to be unmotivated, as if he doesn't even want to be a race driver and only does it because his dad wants it. he's blocking a good seat for drivers who love racing 100% and would do everything for a good f1 seat. his performances are decent sometimes now, he definitely improved since his debut in 2017. but i still feel that his seat in f1 is a waste.
i would love a racing series, where every company gets the same money budget but no else rooms (maybe some safetythings) and then let them race... I would love to see, how much is possible and with what ideas those teams would come up

Ferrari 2020: "Please guys, be gentle..." (whilst getting shafted by most of the grid).
Honestly this makes F1 cars look even more impressive, given that they took the Spa lap record back not long after, and the gap wasn't that large to begin with considering this was a no-reg car against F1 which is heavily regulated.
The simulations for the 919 EVO Nürburgring lap time showed a time of 4:30. The human is indeed the limiting factor here. If the Ring record will ever be beaten again, then it will be done by an AI. Great video by the way!
I wonder how fast it'd go if it was remote controled by a human in vr, see how fast can a human drive the car without suffering G forces.
what about the red bull X-cars deigned by Newey?, what's their theoretical maximum?

Actually, that lap record from Spa has already been beaten since Q2 in 2018 (!!) by cars which were built very much under regulated rules. Sebastian Vettel (Ferrari SF71H, 1:41.501), Lewis Hamilton (Mercedes W09, 1:41.533) and Kimi Räikkönen (Ferrari SF71H, 1:41.553) beat the time set by Porsche in Q2, before rain hindered them from setting even faster times in Q3.
Also, just now (29 August 2020), Lewis obliterated that record once more with his monstrous Mercedes-AMG F1 W11 EQ Performance! He achieved a new lap record with an 1:41.252 (!!), more than half a second quicker than Neel Jani. Furthermore, Valtteri Bottas in the second Mercedes was also slightly quicker.
I think this shows you just how incredible these F1 machines are when even a completely unregulated Porsche can't come close to the times set by cars which operate well within a set of regulations. That's F1.
Imagine if F1 technology had been classified for decades. 4 stroke motorcycles including Moto GP took a huge step forward thanks to Formula One
Interesting info. Still with all that tech, the margins between lap records are slim. To really know which vehicle is truly better we need these vehicles to be remotely operated eliminating the onboard driver. This would provide a more accurate assessment of the performance of the hardware.
@@citizendc9 ? what, but you are aware that a racing driver of the class of hamilton or even the once who drove the porsche. are some of the bets in the world, what they can do better then all the others are consistency. so aslong as both get driven by humens it doesnt matter, what does matter is air pressure, air conidiotn, wind, temperature, hight over sea and so on. The difference you get between differnt drivers is minimal. and btw 0.2-0.4 s difference is alot, just put it in lenth in meters and its alot with this speed.
@@citizendc9
Remotely operated? So your saying a F1 car with the driver back in the pits driving the car with a video game like interface is going to be what? Faster (not a chance)? more consistant at some speed slower than 10/10? - maybe , but if your not all out, how do you judge which is faster?
Or were you thinking that a computer in the car is going to drive faster than a human F1 driver? Someday a computer might drive one of these cars faster than an average human, maybe someday faster than an average human racer (although I think, a long , long time from now, like 30 years), or that a computer is going to be faster than the best F1 driver in the world (I don't know how to bet here. maybe in a 100 years. I don't know maybe it will be possible someday. I won't live to see it [but I only have 30 or so years left]).
@@brynnrogers5081 i believe what he is saying is that by having the same driver's that operate the vehicles on board now operating them remotely with a set up similar to video games (steering wheels with force feedback and paddle shifters, foot pedals, etc) can now negate the effects of g forces on the driver. This is something that could actually have a huge impact on a lap time as it was mentioned in this video that the g forces in the Porsche reached upwards of 4g on the driver's head and neck. It may not be a traditional way to drive a race car and if it does start to happen it will be frowned upon by motor sport purists, but finding any way to maximize speed by eliminating the negative effects of atmospheric pressures is what the engineering behind this sport is all about.
"4.5G of lateral acceleration" :S *on a car, going forwards!* O.o

@Yung Jxhno The irony is that they would want to cover up the wheels much like a prototype car. But yeah, a mash up of a prototype car and an F1 car without any restrictions would be absolutely bonkers.
Yeah true... but on the other hand the Porsche's whole design is based arround 24h endurance racing and F1 is max 300km/2h car. So i would say in hot laps the F1's base design is generally more favored.
Not to mention the corners etc etc not just straight

Edit: Yes, stupid comment. I didn't think it over beforehand. But I researched and learned some more knowledge.
Racing drivers are having it worse even though they statisticly need to endure lower G-Forces.
Reason you may ask? In a Car, the G-Forces mainly constrain the Y-axis (Horizontal/to left and right) and X-axis (Horizontal/to front and rear) while Fighter Pilots mainly edure Z-axis (Vertical/on Up and Down).
On Z-axis force your Spine and Neck are stabalycing you, on X and Y your muscles have to take over that part.
its sideway, so its worse
Except one is vertical and the other is sideways. They're different things, although I'm not sure of the specifics.

I think f1 needs to have further expanding regulations. If this car can do what it does, then f1 is no longer the pinnacle of Motorsport that it once was. This needs to change. However, this may result in worse racing, thus leading to the dilemma that f1 has always had. Faster cars or better racing.
It's not a legit competition car so F1 remains the pinnacle of motorsports. Just like Land Speed Record competitions are much different.
F1 is still faster
f1 has banned so many technologies over the years though, if all of those were to be made legal again or just all put into a project/concept car then i doubt there would even be a driver capable of driving the thing to it's maximum. i mean really just imagine.
-4 wheel drive
-active suspension
-double diffuser
-exhaust blown diffuser
-f duct
-unregulated aero (flexi wings included)
-covered wheels
-ground effects
-fan car
and a litany of other things i simply cannot remember.
they could no doubt easily make a car that can lap on average 10 seconds faster at every circuit...probably more.
1st question is who would drive the thing?
porsche had to break tons of rules for this tribute car, but that's fine it was never going to race anyway and the car is the same from the racing one just with some liberties taken.
i struggle to find any team that would forward the money required for an f1 tribute car though, it would have to be built from the ground up.
f1 regs are pretty good as they are right now, actually pleased that the 2021 regs have been pushed back thanks to covid.
F1 cars would be faster again if they did this though. Much faster.
Also, that Spa lap time has since been beaten by Raikkonen, Vettel, and Hamilton.
If F1 races at Spa in 2021, then I wouldn't bet against the Mercedes lapping way faster.
IMHO F1 cars should be designed based on the circuit specs. Modern F1s require tracks that are very diffrent from the classic circuits, just look at what Tilke designed in the last 20 years. All the great circuits are becoming obsolete in the name of what? I say slower cars and f**k the records, the first race Shumi won in Ferrari was in wet Catalunya, 2 mins per lap, low grip and overtakes on every corner. That's pure racing!
Mercedes W11 entered the chat.

@@migracing8232 foolish? He is correct. The car was faster than F1. Nobody said it still is.
You could also say how Ford build a car faster than Ferrari at Le Mans. (Its a good story.) Thats still correct. Nobody said Ford is still faster.
@@migracing8232 it actually doesn't as it did achieve the goal to be faster than any existing F1 car, the laps done in F1 cars that beat it came later (i.e not an existing F1 car at the time of the record)
To be even more fair, Ferrari probably weren't using a regulation car either 🤣.
Lars St. He was correct in 2017, but you can no longer claim the car is “faster than an F1 car” if the latest and greatest F1 cars are still faster. Vettel beat the Porsche’s time by 3 tenths, literally 3 weeks later. What he should say, is faster than a 2017 F1 car. What makes it worse is the fact that this took place 2 years ago, and to claim it’s faster without specifying 2017, would be incorrect.

straps in his mercedes that was built from the ground up with up to a 400mil budget to face off against a car that was originally designed in 2010
7:14 Sebastian Vettel holds the Spa lap record.
Dude this video was made in 2020, update your information
The car was faster than 1 F1 car. Its a story how they build a car that was faster than F1. Nobody said it still is.
@@Senekha86 When you say someone is a "lap record holder" it indicates that they're the current holder. Which isn't the case here.
Lars St. If I play you in a game of Checkers and I beat you, then we play 3 more times and you beat me 3 times. Can I say I’m still better than you at checkers just because I beat you once, even though you beat me 3 times after that? Of course not, you would be better since you had just beaten me. Same goes for this, the Porsche WAS faster but because it’s old information, you’ve got to update it and keep it accurate. It was soundly beaten in 2018, F1 will always be the fastest around a track.
indeed, i slogged through the entire video and he never mentions that the 919 record has already been retaken by f1 cars. what a terrible clickbait video with garbage research
@@Senekha86 You know, if you just put the emphasis that it was built faster than the 2017 F1 car, we would understand. Just stating F1 in general, makes it sound like 919 is still the faster car than F1 up to now.
I’d love to see a racing series based on hotlap times set in cars with no design limits
Hamilton actually just broke the record today at Francorchamps!! In a ”regular” F1...
And Bottas too by the way...
was looking for this comment
after a whole list of numbers the most impressive was: 4,5 G lateral, thats insane
This just confirmed that Bellof was in another dimension 36 years ago: he set the Nurburgring record in a rules restricted, race setup car.
The Evo had all sorts of technology assists, tires and weight reductions that gave Timo Bernhardt advantages unavailable to Bellof. Wild!
Neel Jani not being able to handle the speed of the Evo says a lot about current F1 drivers
Sergio Perez was out-qualified by his team mate Lance (spoiled rich kid) Stroll. Reason, Perez was feeling dizzy and unwell from all the g-forces. Normally by the time they got to the high downforce tracks they would have had a few good races already, but this year was obviously different.
@stev ano it's not hating, it's a fact. he is a spoiled rich kid
@stev ano his dad literally bought him an F1 race team. What else do you need ?
@stev ano the problem i have with stroll is that he often seems to be unmotivated, as if he doesn't even want to be a race driver and only does it because his dad wants it. he's blocking a good seat for drivers who love racing 100% and would do everything for a good f1 seat. his performances are decent sometimes now, he definitely improved since his debut in 2017. but i still feel that his seat in f1 is a waste.
We need more of these types of cars.
i would love a racing series, where every company gets the same money budget but no else rooms (maybe some safetythings) and then let them race... I would love to see, how much is possible and with what ideas those teams would come up
