Curator’s note
McLaren’s hybrid successor to the F1, with racing-style DRS.
The P1 was McLaren’s first hypercar since the F1 and one of the hybrid trio alongside the Porsche 918 and LaFerrari. A twin-turbo V8 and an electric motor together make 916 PS, with racing-style buttons for instant boost and reduced drag.
