    I don't mean to argue, but calling the TheFerrari & P1 'more powerful' than the 918 is debatable. The McLaren P1 is has a marginal 16 hp advantage over the Porsche, but gives up an enormous 276 lb/ft of torque. The TheFerrari generates 76 more hp over the Porsche (an 8% advantage), but also falls behind by 276 lb/ft of torque. People are impressed by the horsepower, but forget that engines also produce torque. Porsche has a huge torque advantage.

      Digital Car Addict I was thinking the same thing while watching this video. Also it looks to be mounted so the mounting hardware probably adds another .001 lolol It's either that or the driver doesn't have breakfast and/or lunch before the run lol sacrifices had to be made so after the runs the driver probably had a sandwich in hand.

    Tremendous feat of engineering. The 918 is fully loaded with luxuries yet can still break speed records. I feel this cars like this and the Veyron are greater achievements than something like the P1 which is very stripped down and focused on track performance.

I also believe the new Michelin Sport Cup 2 or whatever those tires are called played a HUGE role in getting this unbelievable lap time! Amazing progress in automotive tech if you ask me!

Amazing video. I'd like to see a video without the assists, something tells me this car is much more of a handful than this video is suggesting. Either way, still an incredibly display of engineering prowess and technology!

      Unfortunately, you'll have to get used to it. They may be quicker than a manual, but I still want a manual. Most cars are PLENTY fast enough that you don't need that extra 1/10th of a second 0-60. If all you plan to do is race at the drag strip, then fine, but I prefer to drive on real roads and do a few track days on a road course here and there.. The limits of most cars (not just hypercars) are so far out of bounds for most drivers it's ridiculous. IOW, most drivers will never notice the 'slower' acceleration.

    Also der Speed von 300 auf der Geraden und die Kurven mit 120-160 sind schon beeindruckend, auch das Rausbeschleunigen ist "insane", aber was mich wirklich sprachlos macht, ist der Grip und die Balance des Wagens ... das ist ungelaublich. So eine saubere Linie, so wenige Korrekturen ...

    The Nordschleife is a 21km Porsche-Laboratory and the 918 finished countless laps during the past years of development. On this track an experienced package can be much faster than a more powerfull car ! Now Ferrari is in a rush to test over there, but from now on the weather is also getting more and more unsteady, and this is another significant factor on the Nordschleife. Ferrari is only unbeatable at Fiorano, but Fiorano lap times wont make people excited ...

    sure looks like it, either that or he's a God at feeling the car's grip

    Dumb question. From 7:25-7:50 the speedometer doesn't go over 280km/hr. We all know the 918 can go way faster. So how come on such a long straight, Lieb didn't push it?

      ROFLcopter when I went around the ring for the first time I can remember being absolutely blown away at how much more bumpy the track seems as opposed to a video game, so with it being a pretty low car, it catching the bumps along Antoniusbuche etc restricts it from accelerating even faster, the fastest cars around the ring tent to be either higher up or incredibly light to cure that problem, or have softer tyres.

      ROFLcopter I imagine it has to do with all the "bouncing"
      Can't be all to safe to bounce around at 300+

      ROFLcopter Had it not run out of "boost" by that section? You can see him change something on the steering wheel. I'm thinking he may have used up all the battery boost by that section? It did seem to get up to that speed in other sections much more quickly.

      +chipchip he was flying with over 300 before easily, so I reckon running out of boost was the case
