He’s pushing the tyres to the very limit in most corners and is inducing a lot of turn in oversteer and generating a nice slip angle for exit and for 90% of the other corners he’s just having fun and sliding the car. Superb car control and balls harder than steel.
On sent bien qu'à la fin les pneus sont en surchauffe complète vu comme ça part, tu te fais plaisir la ahah, t'es surement le seul pilote de journal auto qui la fou en pression comme ça sur piste ! bravo !
C'est beau mais aussi inquiétant de voir des pneus si efficace sur certaine voiture ne pas l'être entièrement sur celle ci, après à savoir depuis combien de temps il roule et le kilométrage des pneus aussi
Actually he explained in the article (www.largus.fr/actualite-automobile/essai-extreme-la-mclaren-720s-en-test-au-nurburgring-9344390.html) that he whishes he had better tyres to take benefit of all what this car could provide. The original Pirelli are not the best for the ring and he would have driven much faster with better tyres.
When he went through the first three corners....I was like man that thing looks loose, but I didn't read the description until other comments mentioned he was in drift mode. Man it shows.
Vu le temps sur le bugatti sans pneus semi slick, elle a de grande chance de faire tremblé la concurrence sur le nurb. McLaren a frappé un grand coup ! Très bon pilotage au passage 👍
Anyone that has actually done significant track time will understand the pure unbridled joy of neutrally drifting through a corner with just throttle manipulation alone. Then taking it beyond that point, to a point of excess and not losing control ... oh boy oh boy oh boy! I'm envious of the driver, as that most of been such an enjoyable lap :)
It's called pushing it, to be fast you need to find that fine line of traction/losing traction ... people are silly. Of course sliding alllll the time isn't as efficient but once and a while is normal, especially on a hot lap.
De la Aixam à la McLaren, tout fini en pilotage/contrôle/trajectoire parfait 👌 Very Nice, j’aimerais avoir l’occasion de grimper à côté d’un pilote comme toi 🤙 Super vidéo en tout cas 👌 A +
It's called variable drift control, not only that the hotter the tires the better the grip! Why do you think they are constantly trying to warm there tired in motorsport?! Think before you comment!!
Martyn Dyson There is an optimum operating temperature window for the tires, it doesnt mean that the hotter the tyre is the better grip it has. You made fool out of yourself
Amazing, this car is a rocket. The shifting is so lightning fast :O I got drained and tired by watching all the micro-steering happening, can’t imagine how it must be actually driving it.
Pretty weird handling setup for this track. He's spending so much time dealing with the oversteer, the car seems very loose. The 'Ring isn't exactly a drift course...
Correct me if I’m wrong but I think he had his traction control set for more oversteer as you can see from the center screen. Hence the more unnecessary drifting. I bet he just wanted to have more fun.
The „Variable Drift Control” in this car is not a „drift mode” that you all guys know. It is just a system that allows car to oversteer more before the ESC intervene. The guy in the video just pushes the car, trying to find the limit that is why he the car oversteers sometimes he is not doing it for fun. And by the way, he has some great skills 👍🏻
Bonjour bravo pour cette super vidéo. Conduite bouillante, je n'aurai pas aimé être à la place du mec de droite. Un peu comme au PaulRicard. 😋Comment sont fixées les 2 caméras SVP ?
L’argus is an extremely competent driver, but the car’s handling seems nervous and almost uncontrolled with the amount of steering input needed. Tons of understeer too 😳 ATB Peter
I know for a lot of the lap he’s playing. But when he’s trying the thing seems like a massive handful. A lot of see sawing on the wheel to keep it in line. Quite surprising.
He is driving like a pro, probably he is a pro, and knows the track inside out. One would never deliberately lift off the throttle on corner entry like that unless they were trying to kill themselves.
Joy to watch someone driving committed in a 720S :) Surprised there is so much turn-in oversteer? Is that default handling or something you do for preference through tire pressures?
Nice chassis balance, I had no idea, no vloggers or journos have driven one properly yet. Rear tyres getting hot towards the end of the lap by the look of it.
Great to see someone driving a 720S nice and sloppy 😉👍👌. It shows that you can have fun with this car as well as be fast in it! With this much oversteer evident though, were the tears shot??
So much corner entry oversteer...good to a certain extend but too much rotation hurts the lap time and is very difficult to controll. Especially on the Ring
Bloody hell! That was one of the best laps of the Ring I've seen. I'm sure I would have spewed. Can't wait for the LT version.
Watch a GT2 RS MR lap.
ahh the satisfaction of watching someone drive a 720s like its a fiesta 😎
Ford Fiesta ST??? Lol
Anh ơi anh có số điện thoại của cường Đô La không
Finally someone driving this thing around a circuit like it's meant to be, good stuff
Love it! I’m the Gtr Nismo driver, i was following you during one lap! Great driving :)
Great driving too Francesco, I hope that we will meet again ;)
Do you have a video of that? If so, please supply link here. Thanks. :-)
One of the best videos I've seen in a long time....
Da Alpha Supreme Kevin Estre also got some good vids too!
The 720S is so effortlessly fast.
S because it’s designed right
This is some mind-blowingly good driving. Reminds me of the lap footage from the 911 RUF Yellowbird pilot! Outstanding
He’s pushing the tyres to the very limit in most corners and is inducing a lot of turn in oversteer and generating a nice slip angle for exit and for 90% of the other corners he’s just having fun and sliding the car. Superb car control and balls harder than steel.
Fast but courteous and sensible. Guy knows what he's doing, and the drifts wete awesome. Car was definitely on its tip toes. Big respect.
Clignotant à droite et tu laisses passer le missile....!😊
Du grand pilotage . Impressionnant !
5:22 hell yeah that was nice
Normally that slide results in earning a place on a future crash video.
1000/1000 times I'm wrecking that shit lol
Uff
The way of all flesh 👌
On sent bien qu'à la fin les pneus sont en surchauffe complète vu comme ça part, tu te fais plaisir la ahah, t'es surement le seul pilote de journal auto qui la fou en pression comme ça sur piste ! bravo !
En mode drift sur le ring !
Le mec est barge !
C'est beau mais aussi inquiétant de voir des pneus si efficace sur certaine voiture ne pas l'être entièrement sur celle ci, après à savoir depuis combien de temps il roule et le kilométrage des pneus aussi
Depuis le début ses pneus sont hors tolérance sportive.. à la fin c’est juste bagdad.
How can a machine with so much power be this controlable, a road car no less! Respect, for McLaren and the driver
The driver has a lot to do with it, he looks to be fighting the car the whole time.
Actually he explained in the article (www.largus.fr/actualite-automobile/essai-extreme-la-mclaren-720s-en-test-au-nurburgring-9344390.html) that he whishes he had better tyres to take benefit of all what this car could provide. The original Pirelli are not the best for the ring and he would have driven much faster with better tyres.
Whoa cool!
Just found out I can hold my breath for 7:20!!
So brave!! That was a battle in every curve!
Qu'elle maîtrise, y a rien a dire sur cette performance !!! Être passager c'est chaud là ♨️🔥
When he went through the first three corners....I was like man that thing looks loose, but I didn't read the description until other comments mentioned he was in drift mode. Man it shows.
Bravo sir. Nice to watch someone that knows the track and knows how to drive give a car a proper workout.

With or without TC ?
Power over steer pass at 2:05 looked fun I could tell it was purposeful lined the turn well 😎😉
Drives a McLaren like rally cross. Epic
😯😯😯😯 driver Amazing, control Amazing....balls Amazing
I think you are a professional driver!
so many ppl commenting on his over sliding - any of you smarties thought that he's doing it on purpose to have fun? xD
It's mind numbing how so many people can't tell that he is inducing oversteer on purpose.
It's called pushing it, to be fast you need to find that fine line of traction/losing traction ... people are silly. Of course sliding alllll the time isn't as efficient but once and a while is normal, especially on a hot lap.
I'm not conviced he was intentionally inducing oversteer, but he was definitely experimenting with finding the limit, and riding it with authority lol
@@JifeLacket this isn't him finding the limit lol, this is the 720s Drift mode, which diverts more then necessary power to the rear
Jason Jayawardena No, hes definitely finding the limit to the cornering of the car and grip of the wheels

Showing the car is set to maximum drift is a flex 💪
Huge balls man, huge balls !!! Very nice drive and awesome drifting!!! 👏👏👏
Superb driving as usual! It's sooo quick but looks like very hard work to get a good lap out of it.
West Coast Crawling Check the screen. It’s in drift mode
Ce pilote m'épatera toujours! quelle relâchement des poignets... Incroyable!
Dudes a driver for sure and McLaren know how to build a car. What a machine.👌🏽
Handles like a super fast go kart, love to drive one of these. Great lap looks like a pure adrenaline rush!
You are amazing driver! Greetings from Slovakia :)
I think the tires got too hot near the end. At the beginning you had more grip and to the end the car was sliding everytime.
Nice driving 👍
It's called variable drift control, not only that the hotter the tires the better the grip! Why do you think they are constantly trying to warm there tired in motorsport?! Think before you comment!!
@@martyndyson9501 the optimum tire temperature is between 75°C and 90°C.
A higher temperature than 100°C and up will decrease the grip rapidly.
true, the car was all over the place
Martyn Dyson There is an optimum operating temperature window for the tires, it doesnt mean that the hotter the tyre is the better grip it has. You made fool out of yourself
Martyn Dyson “Think before you comment!!” Lol you’re a big dumb dumb
It's clearly that he is hitting the throttle that hard and early to produce some powerslides, really good driver and fun to watch.
The camera angle and microphone are very good. Driving and video are very good. Thank you.
Oh yeah! Asi se lleva un McLaren.. No como algunos aquí por Puerto Banús! Saludo desde Marbella ;-) Merci pour partager ce moment de bonheur #largus
Now that's how a 720s shall be driven. Great skills. Nice video. Fantastic car.
That was savage! epic driving absolutely love it 😍
Che guida,complimenti!! Sempre uno spettacolo i vostri video!!
Glad you gave it some of the McLaren Variable Drift Control fun!!!Without it this car is griping so much more
Good job very nice use of the tires . You ran them just to their limit not too over . Driver here.
Incroyable 😍👍👌 la maîtrise 😱
Amazing, this car is a rocket. The shifting is so lightning fast :O
I got drained and tired by watching all the micro-steering happening, can’t imagine how it must be actually driving it.
Nice drifts and very good handling 👍🚗👍
I thought if it’s put in track mode, the instrument cluster flips down? Meaning, track mode wasn’t enabled here?
the car isn't in sport mode ? normally on a 720S the dash flips if you put it in sport mode, or am i wrong ?
Pouuahh grande classe.. Magnifique pilotage. Bravo 👏
Nice video , good driving : finally saw some real driver driving this car
i ve watched this video some many times its amazing
Is the steering really heavy or does he just like to strangle the wheel and keep arms tensed for the video
Pretty weird handling setup for this track. He's spending so much time dealing with the oversteer, the car seems very loose. The 'Ring isn't exactly a drift course...
Mclarens gain their time on the straights, not the corners. Hence loose handling
Maybe this guy just WANT to go sideways for fun? He definitely has the skill and the BALLS to do it on green hell.
Correct me if I’m wrong but I think he had his traction control set for more oversteer as you can see from the center screen. Hence the more unnecessary drifting. I bet he just wanted to have more fun.
@@Ralgog p1 has the fastest time in nurburgring
Exactly what i thought,he's all over the track, maybe joyful to drive like this but not so enjoyable to watch
The „Variable Drift Control” in this car is not a „drift mode” that you all guys know. It is just a system that allows car to oversteer more before the ESC intervene. The guy in the video just pushes the car, trying to find the limit that is why he the car oversteers sometimes he is not doing it for fun.

Wait doesn't the spedo change it's self in track mode? Are you not in track mode?
the first time that a mclaren is on or over the edge!well done,great driving!i think the tires where melted after the first 2 minutes!
Awesome driving!
One thing though: the steering looks quite soft/indirect. Is that just an impression from the video?
Pity about the heavy traffic but what kind of lap time was this guy doing? Great driving and didn’t even wear gloves... impressive 👍🏻
Normally the little drifts are so smooth...what happened this time? show off lap?
Drift mode
The passanger is just to even the wheight out, nice car and driver!
Bonjour bravo pour cette super vidéo. Conduite bouillante, je n'aurai pas aimé être à la place du mec de droite. Un peu comme au PaulRicard. 😋Comment sont fixées les 2 caméras SVP ?
Who is the driver? That is one brave man
Unbelievable driving! Is such a fast car but looks like a handful, but I like that
L’argus is an extremely competent driver, but the car’s handling seems nervous and almost uncontrolled with the amount of steering input needed. Tons of understeer too 😳 ATB Peter
It might look loose at least he is actually DRIVING THE CAR . Which ever way you look at it the 720s is astonishing end of...
I guess that is what one can say "fully lit"!
Nice Sir! Thank you!
Great video! thank you for sharing it with us
It's amazing how after all the drifting and slowing to overtake other cars, this thing still posted a time of 7:23
What a drive. Respect. 😍😎💪💪💪👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Quel est le nom du pilote!?
Car is sooo agile!!! Great driving too. 👍👍
magnifique,ca c est de l essai comme on les aime
oui mais moi je connais quelqu'un qui a une Seat il ferait beaucoup mieux, et facilement avec un bras dans le dos !
@@horsebyjoker4658 oui par ce qu avec une renault en poussant la voiture une main dans le dos,c est pas facile de faire un bon chrono...c est pour ça
I know for a lot of the lap he’s playing. But when he’s trying the thing seems like a massive handful. A lot of see sawing on the wheel to keep it in line. Quite surprising.
Forget that. I now see from the centre screen he has it set very loose. That setup configuration is such a cool idea.
Hhmm whats the time for the bugatti and the agera in this track? Oh they only do straight lines....
He is driving like a pro, probably he is a pro, and knows the track inside out. One would never deliberately lift off the throttle on corner entry like that unless they were trying to kill themselves.

That thing is like a rally car, wow great driving skills bro
Looks like the rear tires didn’t have much tread left when lapping.
Great to see someone driving a 720S nice and sloppy 😉👍👌. It shows that you can have fun with this car as well as be fast in it! With this much oversteer evident though, were the tears shot??
Normal p zeros. Far from the grippiest tire available
La puissance que délivre les Mclaren.. J'ai du mal à l'expliquer, le gap semble si élevé par rapport à ferrari et Porsche
Well that looked fun 🙂, very entertaining lap, great skill, great car
Amazing. Now that's how you drive the 720s.
Awesome driving love the drifting
respect for the car in front he gave him a lane immediately.
Good driver.....and it looks so much fun to drive !
Very good driving. Holy shit
Great video - any aids turned on?
nice round! thats how a supercar should be driven 🤙
Now this is how everyone should drive, it's how I drive my modified Ford F-350 crew cab longbed, 4x4.
Cool vid. That thing looks a little squirrelly at times.
This is so relaxing to watch
For everyone questioning the sliding and twitching of the driver, the car has variable drift mode turned fully on to have fun
Does it have Pirelli fitted?
Tout en survirage avec une voiture à 250k gros respect !
what tyres u running? Looks a right handful and not what I expected.
Normal p zeros
The engine doesn't sound like its working too hard.
Steve Harding it literally sounds like it revving up to 4500rpm even thought it’s at 7000. Very under stressed
@@hapesethathi2742 What is the boost settings?
So much corner entry oversteer...good to a certain extend but too much rotation hurts the lap time and is very difficult to controll. Especially on the Ring
looked liked tyres started going off about 2/3 the way around by the way he started sliding & fighting the wheel more & more.
first time I can t complain about gear shifting. spot on!
So cool how he just teleports up to slower cars from behind. He must come up so fast they barely have time to get out of the way
Why other cars stands?
a pleasure to watch!
