McLaren W1 First Drive: Ferocious Hypercar Transcends the Track

You know things are getting serious when McLaren rolls-out the ‘1’ suffix. The origin story is, of course, the very first road car McLaren ever built, the F1. Designed by visionary Formula 1 aerodynamicist and engineer Gordon Murray, it arrived in 1992 and rendered all other supercars obsolete. The tiny, lightweight F1 embraced carbon-fibre material technology, adopted a radical centre seat driving position with two passengers set back and either side and was powered by a 6.1-litre V12 engine from BMW that might as well have been passed down directly from the Gods. Game-changer? That doesn’t even come close to describing its impact, even if at the time sales didn’t come easy… The P1 was very different. Rather than a unique side project from the Formula 1 team, it was instead a statement piece for McLaren Automotive, a new road car division still in its infancy. It arrived in 2013 and was a wild-eyed showstopper. It traded the long-legged gait and supple suspension of the F1 for a weaponized hybrid system capable of delivering 903bhp and huge blue flames from its drainpipe exhaust. In Race mode, it lowered by 2-inches and its massive concave rear wing extended into the sky. The P1 was all about aerodynamic downforce, crazed acceleration and a snorting, angry soundtrack that mixed venomous twin-turbocharged V8 with the manic whirr of electric motors. Not so much a car as a force of nature. And now there’s this: The W1. It’s a true successor to the P1 with a similar brief and, on the face of it, it evolves rather than radically reinvents McLaren’s vision for the ultimate hypercar. This is not a criticism. How could it be when the result is this dramatic and has such staggering, other-worldly potential? The W1 has 1258bhp delivered to the rear wheels. It’s capable of 0-124 mph in 5.8-seconds, the quarter mile in 9.6-seconds at 167 mph and produces 2205lbs of downforce at 174 mph. The active aerodynamics – particularly a rear wing that extends way out beyond the rear of the car – are pure performance art and deliver massive aerodynamic efficiency. The result, aside from looking extremely cool, is that the W1 is McLaren’s fastest road car around a racetrack. Ever. Their benchmark circuit is the breath-taking Handling Track at the Nardo proving ground in southern Italy, where the W1 beats their previous benchmark, the flyweight McLaren Senna, by three seconds per lap. Or “a lifetime” as they call it in racing. Maybe two lifetimes! Core to the W1’s performance is the new ‘Aerocell’ carbon fibre tub. With integrated seats and a raised footwell to allow for inboard pushrod-operated front suspension – which in turn gives air a clean path to the huge underbody diffuser – it’s light, stiff, space efficient and has been instrumental in McLaren realising a full ground-effect concept. Just like last year’s F1 cars, which were the fastest ever made. There is also an active front wing and the aforementioned complex rear wing dubbed ‘Active Long Tail’. All of which is very admirable. But the ‘anhedral’ or gullwing doors and the fantastically shirnked-wrapped feel to the minimalist, highly-focussed interior are a pretty good side effect. The W1 feels special. Those fixed seats are perhaps a shade more upright than expected, and the driving position is less obviously racecar than, for example, the Aston Martin Valhalla or Ferrari F80. However, once you’ve adjusted the pedals (they move on a slider) and the delicate, slim-rimmed and alcantara-trimmed steering wheel, there’s an overwhelming sense of purpose. The cabin is so tightly tailored and imparts a sense of lightness and agility before you so much as start the all-new 4.0-litre twin-turbocharged V8 engine, which makes 916bhp all on its own and revs to 9200rpm. Reach up to a roof-mounted control panel to find the starter button. Maybe this fighter plane trope is a little corny, but somehow you feel thrilled rather than manipulated. The W1 has a sense of humour as well as all that motorsport-derived sophistication. There’s a short delay, but when the engine does fire it’s instant – as the high-powered hybrid system negates the need for an old-school starter motor. A sharp flare of revs tells you that this engine is hyper-responsive and angry. On some deep level your brain and body have been sent all the signals required to prepare for something new and intense. Ahead of us, an empty Mugello racetrack, so press and hold the blue button next to the red starter to select Race mode. The centre display graphic shows the W1’s transformation in real time as it lowers by 37mm at the front and 17mm at the rear whilst simultaneously undocking all that active aero goodness. Race mode is not road legal and is geo-locked. You can show your friends and neighbours the aero dance, but it won’t allow you to select a gear to actually drive unless you’re at a circuit. Incidentally, the rocker switches either side of the display binnacle allow further options now: Toggle up the Handling control on the left for Race+ (for F1-spec super smooth tracks) or stick to Race for gnarlier ones. On the right toggle select ‘GP’ for sustained performance over a stint or ‘Sprint’ to unleash all 1258bhp for a time attack. There’s also a DRS and Boost function on the steering wheel. But I guarantee you won’t have the mental capacity to use them… Exit the pitlane, pin the throttle and W1 takes maybe a millisecond or two to gather its might (the gearing stretches to around 60mph in first, nearly 100mph in second, primarily to aid traction), but then lunges at the first turn with incredible ferocity. It instantly feels light, almost like inertia is no longer a thing. McLaren really does prize lightweight engineering, and at 3084lbs (dry) the W1 has a 278lbs advantage over the Ferrari F80. Plus, Ferrari uses figures for cars fitted with every single carbon fibre option. In reality, the gap is probably wider still. The impression of agility and stunning control continues as the track is unravelled at startling pace. The electric motor mounted to the side of the new 8-speed dual-clutch transmission is good for 342bhp and 324lb ft and it boosts any low rev lethargy the new flat-plane crank V8 might have (spoiler alert: It doesn’t appear to have any), so the W1 just feels massively, almost impossibly powerful at any revs. Even so, there’s real reward for wringing it out to 9200rpm and the power curve feels superheated but organic, too. In Race mode the steering – still hydraulically powered – has less assistance and it is noticeably heavier than other McLarens. However, that resistance is welcome as it gives you something to push against and imparts so much information about the front grip level. New Pirelli Trofeo RS tyres with a bigger front footprint than P1 or Senna really help. The front-end feels incredibly secure and the rear-axle follows with perfectly-aligned precision. The whole car feels super-stiff, completely locked into the surface and inspires confidence, but there’s an inherent agility and adjustability that means you’re quickly confident to push at its limits and really impose yourself on the chassis. It’s such a complex car but the driving experience is intuitive, and the driver feels a key contributor rather than just amazed (or terrified) observer, holding on for dear life. Every dynamic ingredient really is shockingly effective and yet has a subtlety and lightness of touch. From that delicious steering to the incredible brakes, the W1 just feels so mission-focussed, so hooked-up. Only the new 8-speed gearbox is a slightly disappointment. It’s fast and punchy, but after the scintillating energy of the Ferrari F80 ’box it feels competent rather than inspired. Other quibbles – it’s okay to quibble when the starting price is $2.1-million before tax and destination charge. Well, that new twin-turbocharged V8 sounds tightly wound and aggressive but if you have a P1 tucked in the garage you’ll miss the snorting, Darth Vader-style soundscape and all the drama that goes with it. Ferrari does this better, too. The F80 sounds deathly dull from the outside but is a riot of turbochargers, electric motors and all sorts of mechanical fury within the cockpit. Even so, the W1 is wildly entertaining on track, and the rear-drive configuration makes it more of a challenge and more satisfying than the F80 when chasing lap times or just sliding around for fun. In the Ferrari, you must second-guess what the front e-axle might do, whereas in the W1 it’s all on you. There are plenty of tools to help, including the ingenious Variable Drift Control, but somehow the W1 is more heroic. Or at least fools you into feeling more heroic – which is surely the point! On the road? Nimble, loaded with feel and sublime response. The ride is noticeably tougher than, say, a 750S but the control is ramped-up too, and with a bit more speed the whole car finds a delicious rhythm. Sport mode for the drivetrain brings some nice turbo whooshes and chirps, but the noise remains high-quality rather than extreme excitement. It is perhaps the one area the W1 feels just a little too tame. Of course, there’s nothing tame about the raw performance… which is genuinely shocking and literally hurts your neck muscles after a few hours. How McLaren has given the W1 such immense traction through just two driven wheels is beyond me. So, is it worthy of that ‘1’? I think so. Perhaps we won’t be talking about $25-million auction results for the W1 in 30 years from now, as we are for the F1. Perhaps it doesn’t quite have the amazing presence and jaw-dropping star quality of the simply gorgeous P1. But it is such an intense experience and the way it marries stunning track performance with delicate poise and entertainment on normal roads is something akin to magic. Maybe not ‘the one’ but definitely a searing, outrageous addition to McLaren’s fiercest family line. Just 399 W1’s will be built and they’re all sold. I’m not surprised at all.

Bugatti Looks Back On An Incredible 2023 And Previews 2024

2023 was a turning point and a magnificent year for Bugatti. Known and celebrated for pushing just about every boundary of the automotive world: from performance, to engineering, to design, personalization, luxury, and exclusivity, Bugatti has a big and sweeping transformation on the horizon to look forward to. It’s announced its final model to be powered by the incredible quad-turbocharged 8.0-liter W16 engine, and the clock is ticking towards the end of the two-decade era of Bugatti hypercars that represented the most aspirational creations in the automotive world. With an incredible 2023 in the books, Bugatti looks forward to entering a new and innovative chapter in its century-long history, and it’s celebrating one of the greatest years yet in its modern hypercar resurgence. It started with the unveiling and sale of the Chiron Profileé, a model that would have been a part of the Chiron lineup but was introduced too late. The one-off went on to sell at an RM Sotheby’s auction and become the most expensive new car ever sold. As just one of the 81 Bugatti hypercars delivered in 2023, after the sale of the Chiron Profileé, the year started off with a bang and continued to be incredible. Bugatti’s Sur Mesure personalization program blossomed, with one of the most incredible examples of its capabilities being the Chiron Super Sport “Golden Era,” a Sur Mesure one-off unveiled at last year’s Monterey Car Week, featuring hand-drawn depictions of Bugatti’s history through the decades. Events like Bugatti’s first Luxury Summitt, as well as the 400 km/h Drive and Grand Tours in both Europe and the United States showed off Bugatti’s ability to deliver when it comes to luxury, performance, and once-in-a-lifetime experiences. At the 100th 24 Hours of Le Mans, the Bugatti Bolide made its public dynamic debut, showing off Bugatti’s on-track prowess. In 2024, Bugatti’s historic home at Molsheim will expand again with the introduction of a new building. In addition, the sold-out Bolide and Mistral are set to be delivered to their clients as Bugatti readies itself to dive headfirst into a completely new and fascinating era.

The Hamilton Collection Visits Bugatti's Molsheim Factory...

Steve even got the chance to sit in his Chiron Super Sport before body panels were installed! While the excitement of ordering a multi-million dollar hypercar must be unmeasurable for any car collector, the adrenaline and anticipation are quickly halted with the news of a lengthy production schedule. With up to a year's wait on Chiron examples, Bugatti keeps that spark alive by involving the customer through the process with updates and even visits to its headquarters in Molsheim, France. The Hamilton Collection recently took the trip across the world to tour Bugatti's factory while getting an up-close look at Steve Hamilton's upcoming Chiron Super Sport hypercar. The tour guide throughout day the was none other than Bugatti Automobiles President Christophe Piochon, who gave insight into the history of the famed Molsheim property. The Atiler's production line showcases Bugatti's craftsmanship and attention to detail, with all Chiron configurations assembled strategically from the rear end to the front. While touring the production line, Steve noticed a stripped-down Chiron with a familiar set of vibrant orange brake calipers. After being introduced to his very own spec, the Bugatti team fixed in a temporary SPARCO race seat for Steve to sit in before his orange leather bucket seats were installed. An evolution of Bugatti's hypercars is displayed in a museum-type space of the factory, proudly displaying everything from first production Veyrons to the exclusive, track-only Bolide. The fuel-driven tour concluded with a Chiron Super Sport test drive with Bugatti Pilote Officiel Pierre-Henry Raphanel. As The Hamilton Collection waits for its Bugatti Chiron Super Sport to be completed, the Veyron will have to fill the void for now.

Bugatti Makes A Generous Holiday Donation To Semeurs d’Ét...

Bugatti makes the Holidays special in its own unique way. Christmas and the holiday season can make for some of the most special and formative memories in a child’s life, and in order to make sure that the holiday season is special for children at the Strasbourg hospital, Bugatti brought together an initiative that was not only magnificent but uniquely Bugatti. Semeurs d’Étoiles, the children’s hospital, received a carefully-curated selection of Christmas gifts, but that was just the tip of the iceberg. A generous donation to the hospital also ensured that it could continue doing its important work of not only caring for its young patients but also ensuring that parents and guardians have a comfortable stay as well. Bugatti also delivered two ride-on toy versions of its iconic hypercars to the hospital. With their stunning design and unmistakable character, the Bugatti experience truly came to life in the hospital, where extenuating circumstances unfortunately prevented the young patients and their families from visiting the Molsheim Atelier itself. In true Bugatti fashion, its dedication to the children’s hospital made Christmas a festive time of year for the children and their families, and that generosity is sure to make memories that will last a lifetime.

Bugatti Shows Off The New Chiron Super Sport 'Coup de Fou...

This stunning new Bugatti references another recent masterpiece. Bugatti’s hypercars are simply unparalleled, with uncompromising performance, engineering, luxury, and style, and Bugatti’s Sur Mesure program brings that level of luxury craftsmanship and style up another notch by realizing clients’ wildest dreams. The latest, which Bugatti has shown off in a new post on Instagram, is the new Bugatti Chiron Super Sport ‘Coup de Foudre.’ Despite being new, the 1,578-horsepower hypercar may look familiar, and that’s because its ‘Vagues de Lumière’ paintwork is familiar. The extra-special configuration is inspired by the 2011 Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport ‘L’Or Blanc,’ whose paintwork boasted the same “trompe l'oeil” effect, which gives the illusion of shining reflections all over the car’s surface. The pattern, painted on a black base color, is in Bugatti’s iconic French Racing Blue, and it not only adorns the exterior but makes for a dazzling interior upholstery as well. Reminiscent of one of Bugatti’s other modern masterpieces from over a decade ago, this new Sur Mesure Bugatti Chiron Super Sport ‘Coup de Foudre’ is a beautiful celebration of Bugatti’s unmatched hypercar creations.
