almost makes you wonder how the Ferrari keeps up, if the McLaren is working this well It's very refreshing for someone to look at these cars without automatic reverence for everything they do, not automatically assuming that everything is perfect (if they were perfect, they'd all be the same)
Anthony Stuart The Ferrari has less weight and a more consistent powertrain (doesn't drain) to help it keep up I suppose. I'd hazard a guess that a P1 would beat it quite soundly around a track like Spa though... Thanks for the compliments!
any possiblity of looking at LMP 1 & 2 aero - i get a bit lost with some of the specifics when checking out mulsannes corner as to the specifics of aero efficiency and the changes made to the cars each season and specifically for le mans, many thanks and keep up the good work!
Excellent video brother I ask you to help me. I need all the information about the active alder system, example: what type of idraulica pump uses, where it is located, what pistons it would use. Or would some medium electric motor better come between the 2 lifting rods with gears? If you can also talk to me about suspension Good videos brother :P
vfdesignz I saw that mentioned in one article offhand, but couldn't find any hard evidence or publicity material to back it up, so I left it out of the video. I can't see any evidence of them in the shots I have of the undertray though...
I think that correct figure for Cd for McLaren P1 is like 0.34 which is great figure comparing to other cars, but worse than McLaren managed 25 years ago with F1. McLaren F1 have Cd of 0.32 (0.39 when balancing spoiler is activated during braking), it feature no wings, have more advanced active aerodynamic (it used among others two electric kevlar fans to further decrease the pressure under the car). But to be honest McLaren is not it was 25 years ago, and F1 is designed by one of best as not best Formula 1 cars designer in history Gordon Murray, same guy that designed most dominate Formula 1 car in history 1988 Honda-powered McLaren MP4/4 which won 15 of 16 races and score 199 points (which is 1 point more then all other teams together managed to score in that season) or revolutionary (and immediately banned) Brabham BT46.
Phos9 Interesting how all that downforce of P1 do not translate to faster car on track, P1 been unable to record a faster time than 7 min 4 sec on Nürburgring and F1 did it in 7 min 11 sec, but on 250m longer track, and according official figures new track is around 10 sec faster then old 250m longer, which make F1 faster then P1. According many sources main reason why McLaren never did publish official data for P1, is that P1 failed to beat F1 in any aspect (and main rival 918).

MORE! I know you're probably busy, but awesome series. I'll be tuning in to each one. Thanks for your work.
Mike G Don't worry, there are the other 3 cars on the list to go! Then I'll be returning to my regular programming

Hello, Kyle, I wonder, could you make a video of Aston Martin Vulcan analysis?
I miss your appearance with your new explanations
do ferrari fxx k
The curve at the end of the wings should help...in regards to the lack of end plates...compromise.
Also the element slit doesn't go to the ends....so the last 6" of wing is solid/one pc./smooth.
This car has the best aero ever because fernando alonso is now driving for mclaren #truth
Awesome vid bro. Keep it up.
Excellent video brother

Good videos brother :P

Doesn't the P1 has active flaps behind the front bumper? I've heard something about that it has some, like the LaFerrari...

KYLE.DRIVES It does have two flaps in front of the front wheels and it works like this > i.imgur.com/kOlfbAc.jpg

The F1 also made a lot less downforce, and the ground under the effect fan probably isn't shrouded enough for it to actually do much.

Downforce typically isn't that useful on street cars, mostly winds up just being drag. The F1 takes it on the straights.
@@mrlazdaI mean, the p1 lm, did do 6:43 and it's estimated that the road car did it in 6:47. We don't know though
Koenigsegg regera analisys, pls
Your about 5 years too late
British is ALWAYS best.
Yeah, you can check if there's oil in it just by looking underneath the car
