0-186mph Formula 1, Veyron, GT-R, LMP1 comparison

Too bad it was wet and the F1 cars from today are nothing like the almost 1000hp V10 monsters from years ago. Still a good video.

Found another older video, I think it runs the quarter in around 8 seconds.

Thumbs up x10.

 

[Coiled03]

Cool to watch, but what else would you expect?

 

[tristateZ28Lt1]

^^ Oh no, that's definitely what I expected lol

Insane how the Bugatti can run with F1 cars, it's an amazing machine.

Geezzuss...What are those tires made of...suction cups...lol

Tire and traction control tech at it's best.

Get a UGR Gallardo out there! Couldn't they at least wait for a dry day?

 

[DirtyD916]

In one of my old Road and Tracks they tested the 2004 Jaguar F1 car. It did the quarter mile in 9.6 @ 189 mph :rockon:

run with? :??:

Bugatti - 19.7 seconds
F1 - 12.1 seconds

That's not even close.

F1 - 12.1 seconds

That's not even close.

Especially considering that was on a damp/wet track, where the Veyron's AWD helps a ton.

+1

Because maybe it was a good condition to test high performance cars with AWD?

I would love to drive one of those

to be fair, they really didn't choose a comparable LMP car. that pescarolo from 2006 and isn't a major manufacturer funded car(I.E., it's pretty slow). a 2009-2010 audi R15 or peugot 908 would be much more comparable. probably not faster, but much closer than the pescarolo.

but that's a badass video none the less! it's insane to think that it took the [heavy]porsche panamera ~40 seconds compared to the ~13 seconds of the F1!

Swap the Renault w/ Red Bull, Mclaren or
Ferrari chassis .... I bet you would be over 1sec faster

Cars driving toward the camera in the rain is a really cool shot. Like warriors emerging from a battle.

in a straight line??? no way in hell! no way are they nearly 10% faster in straight race.

 

[Paulinator]

damn thats insane on a wet track!

Renault is one of the leaders in F1, no way Ferrari could beat it by 1sec to 300kmh just like that... Maybe a pos Williams lol.

It can't, and that was the whole point of the video. What is considered to be pretty much one of the quickest, street-legal production-car in the world doesn't stand a chance against an F1 car. Its AWD gave it an advantage, and even so, it was nowhere near the F1 car.

Did anybody notice how the 100kmh - 200kmh sprint only took 2.7 seconds? Unreal :rockon: I'd give anything to drive one of those cars.
