Towards the end there, I felt an enormous sense of pride to be British. But then I realized I'm an American.
Yay for pride.
Colonial pride?
lmfao I'm mecmxican in america wathing uk top gear on a Chinese phone
21 savage is it you ?
Yeah, had the same feeling.
I'm Indian and so confused right now!
The way Clarkson make you feel about the car the emotions. Nothing will be better than his journalism
CHRIS HARRIS
dabos6 move.
I swear!
Doug Demuro has his glamour too.
@@santiagosanchez2704 You poor man.
Almost 2021 and this car hasn't aged one bit and still looks like it could be revealed at the next auto show
I'm genuinely attracted to it. Getting emotional over it
Yeah, the P1 will always be something truly special. It's a mechanical pearl...
Honestly, you could display thus car in 2022's Geneva Motor show and people who already know the McLaren P1 would still be like "Wow! What car is this!?"
Its a genuine collector's car.
Moreover this car is hybrid, so when the gasoline cars die, this car still favorite. Well, the car still look sexiest even on 2070
Top Gear wasn't just a car show, there were moments where it was truly beautiful.
Right

"You can live in a car,
but you can't race a house"
Motto for life from now on after seeing this
Callum Penman unless you have a motor home
@LG Work Enzo Ferrari sold his house to start to race in 1919, in 1920 he was an Alfa Romeo driver, then in 1929 he estabilished Scuderia Ferrari, that used Alfa Romeo cars (since Ferrari loved Alfa Romeo, it was like a mother for him, and S.F. was sort of under Alfa at the time), in 1947 he decided to produce and sell his road cars to stop taking money from two local banks and to start to feed S.F. with road cars money, the rest is history.
@@ShanesAutos Pretty sure there was an episode where they raced motor homes
What about bathroom?
P1 doesn't have any.
Jakey bastard lol
Rip a hole through time! A decade later, still gives the goosebumps
This P1 ones, Hammond's on 918, May's LaFerrari, and Clarkson' Zonda R are my favorite episodes. The depth of review, editing, and sound are just top of the line, like really the level of production are at the top.
Don't forget Hammond's Lamborghini Sesto elemento review
and alfa romeo disco volante
Then there's the Aston Martin V12 Vantage review....
Also Hammond’s Huayra review, Clarksons Veyron Drive, Clarksons SLR Mercedes McLaren review
All of those plus when Clarkson drove the 928 and told the story about his Dad.
He has some tough balls, going 200mph on a rainy day in Belgium
I'm surprised no one is even talking about it...that was the first thing that came to my mind. Add rwd to your comment. Just mindblowing.
plot twist: clarkson gives private lessons to senna
That's actually KPH made look like miles per hour because of editing, the P1's gears are not large enough to support 200 MPH in 5th and plus, a Koenigsegg One To One can't get to 200 on the dry there so there's absolutely no chance that's in MPH.
Go to 5:16 and you'll see a little more than 5,500 RPM on 5th gear, that's 190 KPH or almost 120 MPH.
@@AnthonyOlivoAnnaLoverForLife it was write 190 mph so learn to read idiot or said that Top Gear are liars
"A Bugatti Veyron has 4WD and weighs more than most mountains"
- Jeremy Clarkson
Used to annoy me when they said a car has a better power to weight ratio than a veyron. Yes a Bugatti had 1001bhp but it weights loads it’s not exactly got a great power to weight ratio
I’ve said this a million times ... don’t exaggerate.
But the whole point point of a Bugatti is to provide luxury and comfort.
A bugatti weighs a boatload! Its a massive whale with 2 engines and 4 turbos! A 2jz with some little upgrades will destroy it
@@JayLupe a w16 with upgrades wilk destroy the 2jz
This is most definitely the one last best car review, the world will ever see.
They don't make programs like this anymore. Clarkson makes you feel emotional with a car you'll never own. What a man.
Back when Top Gear was TOP GEAR! I almost cried at the awesomeness of watching this cinematic review! I as many people the world over, miss the true Top Gear Trio!
Facts💆♂️💆♂️
and they say money cant buy you happiness
+TheMarshall92 they can't // When you see fuel consumption bill you are in deep unhappiness.. More money spent means more trouble .
They don't even consume that much; 9l/100 km when driven carefully. And then again even if it drinks fuel when driven hard you should be able to pay the gas, c'mon, it costs 1 million € !!
Fuel consumption is probably the least of the worries for supercars. Even if you get one for free, the maintenance is usually ridiculously expensive.
No doubt that money can buy you exciting stuff - but that term you're referring to probably talks about a longer period of happiness. I think it's an ideological term anyway, and everyone knows that ideologies are a great place to look for objective truth ;)
Can confirm. You buy a Ferrari and you don't look forward to the maintenance even though you can afford it. Filling up you never consider. Just happens.
This is top level car reviewing.
The driving, photography, phrasing, editing. Clarkson and his team of writers were so elegant in describing something so beautifully brutal.
It's like reciting poetry in a butchershop.
4:55 this part just gives me chills everytime I watch this. I loved cars since like 2012 and this is my absolute dream car. Jeremy is the best car journalist out there. Only he can make a non car guy fall in love with cars.
Aye mate
That sound... That damn sound. up there with a good 5 cyl, or 12v vr-6
just chilling
One of my favourite top gear moments. The cinematography, the editing, the music, the loveable idiot behind the wheel and the car itself!
True
so true
So very true
Not one of the favourites, The Favourite!
2 years later it’s still dope 🔥
this episode is like farewell to jeremy clarkson. black mclaren, rainy, dark.
and he's like: okay i'm too old for this kind of speed. and in the corner he's completely forgot it
There is rumor he will have a show on netflix.
Its not a rumor. The new show with the three lads will be due out this Autumn on Amazon.
No longer a rumor, they're filming right now. The show is called ''The Grand Tour'' and airs on Amazon. I'm very much looking forward to it, because they now have a budget four times as big. Top Gear aired on the BBC, which is a license funded network. What this means is that all Brits, by law, pay a license fee to the BBC. This means commercial free TV is available to all. But it also means that the BBC has to limit the amount of money they can offer Top Gear, as they need to cover all interests, not just car fans... Amazon prime on the other hand does not recieve license pay, so they're free to broadcast whatever they want.
The Grand Tour budget for the first season is supposedly around 200 Million if im not mistaken, so yeah.
This one of the best looking hyper cars that have ever been made. McLaren just knows how to make beautiful cars. The F1 and the P1 are absolutely perfect cars.
Hands down, one of the best car reviews out there.
Oh my god this car is 6 year old and look at it, it's a masterpiece
reza lami it’s art.
Actually almost 8, 2013 cars came out in 2012
@Eemeli Liimatainen but every other car has advanced and has been updated heavily in the styling department. Despite being 7 years old, it could still pass off as a new car.
This car is already 9 years old, but it will still give a head start to modern sports cars both in beauty and speed.
F1 is sweet
the helicopter/drone shots alone should win best cinematography Oscars, they were absolutely mesmerizing.
Totally agreed! What kind of drones do you think they're using?
@@TucsonDude Mavics I think
@@mikoajpuchalski347 doubt it, Inspire or heavy lift to get that sort of shot 😊
@@mikoajpuchalski347 nope. Big production like BBC using a consumer drone? Come on, they have custom rigs with 8 propellers that carries a dedicated mirrorless camera.
@@TucsonDude They had more or less unlimited budget lol, so they used a helicopter with a huge, sphere-like camera attached in front of it. Just saw a video of it! Here's the link: ruclips.net/video/FsuRsyLD7JM/видео.html
This review of the P1 is still one of the greatest reviews of any car ever. Jeremy's passion makes this review that much better. The way he is responding to the P1 when he drives it was pure. The angles throughout the video were superb. Doesn't get much better than this.
I kinda agree with you, this video is just too perfect. However in my opinion my favorite car review by Top Gear has to be when Richard Hammond reviewed the Porsche 918. (That video of the 918 was a cinematic masterpiece!)( ´◡‿ゝ◡`)
@@Ved_Overclocked I agree. Both reviews were cinematic masterpieces in my opinion. To me no car show will ever come close to the Top Gear duo of Jeremy, Richard and James.
@@karanrandhawa4991 Top Gear has something no other car show will ever have...
-a connection with the audience.
Alfa romeo disco volante review
6:25 - 6:32 everything about that scene is pure perfection, looks so graceful, so beautiful when in reality under that skin there is a humongous high tech battle going on between power and traction keeping that beast on the track
This whole video is perfection I have watched this video for years and will never get bored of it
I can't agree. There was a version for TV where the soundtrack was completly different. For example music from 3:30 shot was from an Blade Runner 2049 OST, and scene you've talking about was Paul Englishby - Carnage(from Luther Original Soundtrack).
I promise to you, it was far far way better than the youtube clip version.
Have a good night!

Surprising you don't have more replies.
Parzival probably because this video is old?
Victor You would expect more in the span of three years.
Parzival his following wasn't that big at the time
McLaren: take every effort in minimising weight.
Top Gear: send a 17 stone Clarkson in.
I don't get why the British count in stones lol, and which stone they found weighs 6 kg?!???!
deathtrap555 I’m British and I’m confused by it. But I’m also confused why Americans use Fahrenheit when the rest of the world uses celsius. 0 degrees Celsius is freezing point for water but for Fahrenheit i think it’s 32? doesn’t make much sense
@@ok-rh4vp yeah Americans still use the Imperial system for some reason
@DB Cooper's MoneyBags but you're giving up the efficiency and more easy to use factor. Which is quite ironic since America is known to be home to inventions that make your life easier.
@DB Cooper's MoneyBags yeah it does Fahrenheit is stupid why would you want to remember random number like 36 for the rest of your life when you can know that 0 is freezing point and 100 is boiling point
His reaction at 05:19 - the slight removal of hands off the wheel - the authenticity and love of the machine he's powering
I still comeback to this video years later, shows how Legendary Jeremy and The P1 really are
... This car weighs less than a Vauxhall Astra...
...And costs as much as the plants used to BUILD Astras.
LOL 😂😂😂😂😂
And is driven by better people than the morons driving the astra

Over 5 years old and it still looks like it could be revealed at an autoshow in the present.

I would rather call it, a "time-less design"
This car is what you call “perfect in every way, shape and angle!
@@luukvos1427 BRILLIANT BRITISH ENGINEERING
3:04 “They should have called this the widow maker!” Something about that line keeps me coming back to this review
from 6:24 on is a filming Masterpiece, the music, the slow motion footage and the script could not be done any better - as soon as he says "it could rip a hole thru time" - the music, the shot of him fighting the steering wheel nearly has me shedding a tear
But then at 06:56 i fell of the chair laughing, when he talked about "Brilliant British Engineering" that allegedly has been around for centuries, and I started thinking about what manure the British car industry designed and sold in the 1970s, 1980s and until the entire British car industry went totally down the drain

Count me in 👍😎👍🇬🇧🏴
Congratulations, Lando Norris!!!
Indeed I am
Moments like this reminds us how brilliant Top Gear was. Tears are running down my chin.
This is one of my favourite car reviews. The passion, the drama. The P1really is a different savage from the Porsche and Ferrari, it looks stealthy as hell, like an assassin and the way it picks up speed is like it has a target it’s moving to kill. This car really is one of the greats
Me too
This one and Jeremys testing Alfa Romeo Disco Volante. Two best videos.
Thought on the McLaren Sena?
The P1, the 918, the La Ferrari. Those three cars are called The Holy Trinity for a reason. They changed car culture the way we know it.
@Jeremy Banks The Porsche and Ferrari are factually more impressive, but Jeremy and the editing team have convinced me subconsciously that the P1 is better. 😂
2:06 " Okay, let me just slow it down a little. " *Still going 90 mph...*
Keith K. Ikr 😂
☺️☺️
Going 90 mph on that thing should feel like going 30 mph on a moped.
Remember how May almost got out of the Veyron SS while it was going 70mph?
@@FarmYardGaming yeah😂.
This is possibly my favorite car review, ever. It gives me goosebumps every time I watch it. Between the words of Jeremy and the cinematography, it is incredible.
ur not alone
I don't even care about cars but i keep coming back to this video. It's just art. The cinematography, the commentary it's all just so amazing

This is my favourite car of all time. I know I'll never ever get to drive one, but I still love it.
Jeremy, James, and Richard are pretty much the only journalists to insult their colleagues’ weight, etc, whilst reviewing a car
All Jeremy is doing is explaining a damn car and it’s music to my soul
Still gives me goosebumps... Even today, 2019, the best automotive video on youtube.
Same
This, f12, Disco volante and huayra are my favorites 💯💯💯
have you seen the 919 record lap vid?!
@@munaabubaker9094 yes, it's spectacular, but it isn't as emotional as this one
Yes, by far. F12 aint far though.. Epic goosepumps... And im not even a Brit and still the end where he was telling about british engineering - not bragging just saying - was so awesome. Only Clarkson can say it that good and deliver that much feelings the same time.. My hats off!
I really like the right kind of pride of ones nation, nothing bad at it. I am very proud Fin my self.
The cinematography on this showcase and on the 918 is the best ever on topgear and outclasses most of not all current car shows today, it's amazing how many chills these 2 videos gave me
One of the great car reviews of all time anywhere. Thank you, Jeremy, for your art of mixing deep knowledge with humor.
"Let me just slow it down...." *slows down to 80 mph*. Best thing I've ever heard and seen.
Tony Marier on a track 80mph is like 50
You can see in his face the car scares him. But he still has the balls and skill to drive the shit out of it.
And enjoy it.
In the rain too…!!!!
The weight of his balls kept the car pinned to the ground.
in the last shot you can see the car squirming as it goes through Radillon. Makes you properly clench up that does
A car that goes that fast *is* scary. If you were to crash that thing, going full speed, you would be *vaporized.*
This is seriously one of the best pieces of car cinema ever produced. I've watched it so many times lol.
I remember my dad telling me about this car when I was 6,this car is work of art and engineering
“That of course makes it economical... and fast... (serious tone) really fast... (even more serious tone) mind blowingly fast.”
- Jeremy Clarkson
Such a good line, gives you the chills

If you go on 0.25 speed and look carefully around 1:15 you can see Clarkson's ghost.
Bloody hellfire!!

I met this very car at goodwood a few years ago, still get chils thinking about it now - a legend in its own right and jez absolutely does it justice here
He calls the car "the widowmaker", then proceeds to put down 900+ hp through just the rear wheels... on a *wet* track!
A kg
All while doing well over 150 mph. Dudes got balls of titanium.
And hes just a "auto journalist." He is of the three legends who made top gear what it is today. Now it's super lame, even the editors suck, bad music choices and just overall cheerier. No charisma, POSH.
He said “they should have called this the widowmaker” he was referring to the corner on the track called “au rouge” not the car.
Kriz Jamz nope he meant the car 😂
Cant believe these hypercars are almost a decade old already. Damn. Time flies...

What about the mclaren senna?
one of the gratest clip from Top Gear, love to rewatch this from time to time. Clarkson was greatly impressed and excited - so inspiring and pure
@6:50 i love how the light reflecting off the side of the P1 from the top of the front wheel to the rear wheel - it gives it that sleek curve which just flows all over the beast. yes there are quicker supercars than the P1 but there won't ever be anything that will look or have the curves like the P1, like Chris Harris said when he drove it "you could look at the thing for hours" he's not wrong
Ahh... The good old days... I remember the thrill watching this particular episode with so much anticipation and it paid off, TRIPLE! I've missed you Jeremy, and your bloody mates Richard and James.
I agree... The new one is not very entertaining! I don't think they'll continue the show after this series. R.I.P. Top Gear.
I highly doubt that they are going to be bringing it back RIP Top Gear
Chris Evans brutally murdered Top Gear. :(
+Katzen4u Agreed! I Heard he quit.

The Ferrari The Ferrari
***** Well isn't THAT telling as all hell!!! _Merde, alors!_
***** Let's be honest though - that's not going to stop these middle-aged chaps from racing them, is it? Remember when Bugatti won't let TG lapped the Veyron when it was new? They get around that with borrowing one from someone who bought one, which i imagine should be the same way with la LaFerrari.
...... unless of course Ferrari being communist towards its costumers (in the case you said, restricting the owners to race it against the hybrids or else get their cars returned, probably. Is that what you heard?), which to me is unsurprising. We all know Ferrari is the most arrogant car company ever since it was inherited from Enzo. An example can be seen with the way they sale Ferrari Enzo, that is lol
I've watched this clip so many times. Clarkson is awesome! Each time I rewatch this video I am astounded with Mclaren's absolute masterpiece of a car. What a machine...
This is the video that started my love for the legendary P1.....and man do i miss Top Gear :/

Totally agreed man. I'm not an engineer myself but I think engineers are some of the most underrated people. Things like finance or being a doctor have that 'wow' factor instantly to a lot of people but engineering is so lit.
One of Clarkson’s best pieces. Still get goosebumps.

I am in complete favor of both concepts. Any idea how long it will take R&D to figure them out?
That v8 is uniquely nostalgic. And those lights, ..., My God it's beautiful.
the way it fades out at the end with the music and the P1 badge, this is a masterpiece
And this right here, is why the "new top gear" with Evans at the helm will never compare, the way that Clarkson speaks about these cars comes effortless, and with authority, and epic, without even trying, the fun and games of the three together is one thing. But it's these serious peices that made the show, let's hope the amazon offering brings something close. But I doubt it will be the same.
Back when Top Gear meant something to the world...
This is why the P1 is my dream car although it is unlikely I will get one it still is an amazing car and the engineering is outstanding how both the engines work together to make so much power and speed which is why the Mclaren P1 is such a work of art. (Yes I am very passionate about the P1, some might say a bit too passionate ;). )
This is one of the most beautiful video I’ve seen on RUclips
This is still one of the greatest car reviews ever put to film. The car drifting like its on the ragged edge which it probably is. The absolute glory that is Spa as a track and of course the legend Clarkson giving us the amazing voice over and review we want. This video is legendary in the car world in my eyes.
I wish top gear didn't get cancelled :( imagine a special episode. Jeremy in the p1, James in the la Ferrari and hammon in the Porsche 918, that would be extremely hard to make happen but it would be the best episode ever!
