The P1 has a twin-turbocharged 3.8-litre V8 and an electric motor, providing a combined 903bhp. It also has a damn sweet rear-end.

By the end of the video McLaren will only say that they achieved a sub-seven minute lap - there's no specific time. However, unofficial recent reports suggest that the P1 managed a 06min 47sec time, a massive 10 seconds quicker than the current official record-holder, the Porsche 918.
