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.

2018 Ferrari 488 GTB & 488 Spider Specs, Price, Photos & ...

Ferrari 488 GTB Price Once in a great while, you will have an opportunity that should not be refused. A Ferrari 488 GTB for sale is the perfect example of this. Hindsight breeds regret and it will eat you alive in the long run. We are living during the greatest age Ferrari has ever known. Choose any Ferrari for sale and it comes with an outstanding warranty and complimentary maintenance. If you need the thrill of a twin-turbo V8 just behind you, the Ferrari 488 GTB price starts at $262,647. To feel the wind in your hair only requires a few dollars more. The convertible version is the Ferrari 488 Spider for sale. It has an MSRP of $280,900, which makes the Ferrari 488 Spider price a bargain in the world of hardtop convertible supercars. Ferrari 488 GTB Review Driving a Ferrari 488 is an exercise in delight. The chassis has been thoroughly reinforced over its predecessor while still remaining mostly aluminum. More welding was needed to harness the increased power. It has resulted in more direct steering, confidence in the corners, and more grip from all corners. Not only does the Ferrari 488 look more muscular and aggressive compared to its predecessor, but it has the bite to match its added bark. Because traditional materials are chosen in favor of composites, the Curb Weight with fluids and a passenger approaches 3,500 lbs. Understanding weight transfer, tire temperature, and counter-steer are essential to any Ferrari 488 GTB review. With the center of gravity behind the cockpit, the car is prone to snap-oversteer if the electronic stability systems are disabled. The unique weight distribution of a mid-engined car puts the weight behind you for even distribution and dynamics meant for sporting and race driving, unlike most cars, which are front-engined and have most of the weight towards the front, hence the need for electronic stability systems and a driver behind the wheel who respects and understands a powerful and agile car like the Ferrari 488. So unless you are a veteran racer, please leave them enabled. The reason we opine in this manner is that your right foot can unlock 660 horsepower, and it can quickly take you where it wants to go. The Ferrari 488 makes an excellent choice for those who want to add a Prancing Horse to their stable because of its revolutionary aerodynamics, timeless looks, incredible performance, and reliable components. Ferrari 488 GTB Specs Once you expand your notions of what a Ferrari 488 GTB for sale is capable of, let's look at how it achieves such superhero accolades. When it comes to any series-production Ferrari, it is not easy to find fault. With the rise of higher quality control and a more vocal customer response, the Ferrari 488 GTB build quality is on-par with the world's best cars. The 3.9L engine is fed by twin turbochargers. Each one is computer-controlled for instant response. On the highway, they are bypassed for impressive fuel mileage. Ferrari 488 GTB vs Ford GT in the 1/2 Mile You will have a range of 418 miles thanks to 19 mpg (highway) and a 22.7-gallon tank. If you need to shed fuel quickly, engage race mode and hang on. Cry havoc and let slip the dogs of war! The Ferrari 488 GTB exhaust seems docile at idle, awaiting your command. Although small in displacement, the latest Ferrari V8 erupts like an unchained hellhound. It is appropriate to call the car overpowered, as the Ferrari 488 GTB top speed is 211 mph. Although the power figures are made on 94 octane fuel, the 488 GTB 0-60 time is 2.7 seconds for the coupe and the Ferrari 488 Spider 0-60 is 2.9 seconds. Both versions are capable of consistent quarter-mile times in the mid-10 second range. Price: $262,647 GTB, $280,900 (Spider) Engine: 3.9-liter Twin-turbo V8 Transmission: 7-speed dual-clutch Horsepower: 660 Torque: 560 0-60 mph: 2.7 s (Spider: 2.9s) 1/4 mile: 10.6 @132 mph Top Speed: 211 mph Ferrari 488 GTB Engine Looking into the heart of this beast, we find the Ferrari 488 GTB engine is over-square. In the world of motorsports, that means the cylinder bore is larger than the stroke of the piston. This has been used to build reliable, high-rpm engines for years. Over-square or under-square each have their own advantages, so Ferrari chose the best of both worlds by using a flat-plane crankshaft. What we are looking at is essentially two 1.99L four-cylinder engines sharing the same crankshaft. Without the heavy counterweights of a cross-plane V8, the engine spins up instantly. Not only does it rev at the slightest touch, it awakens the turbos without any lag. Each turbo is cut from hardened alloys of titanium and aluminum. The twin-scroll design is fed by equal-length exhaust tubes for the utmost in efficiency. This means the 488 GTB and 488 Spider emissions are cleaner than their predecessor, and your car. An evolution of the ion-sensing knock control can richen the fuel mixture if the turbos get too warm. This will give you years of worry-free Ferrari fun. Ferrari 488 Spider: Why to Buy Ferrari 488 GTB Transmission While it doesn't have to deal with the 9,000 rpm shifts of its predecessor, the Ferrari 488 GTB transmission was reinforced to deal with more torque. Mounted behind the rear axles, it receives engine power directly from the crankshaft. With the input shaft running between the differential, it offers great balance by mounting the valve body behind the wheels. Engineers were able to improve the software and internals for amazing shift speeds. Even and odd gears have their own clutch and shaft. Although this makes for a heavy gearbox, it offers years of reliability. Ferrari 488 GTB Interior You must be a Ferrari enthusiast to truly enjoy the Ferrari 488 GTB interior. Driving is all you should be concentrated on, and yet many of the most common controls are mounted in strange places. Without a center console, there is only one armrest for each passenger. Materials range from microfiber, leather and carbon fiber, with several options for seating and contrast colors. Door sills are both wide and tall when compared to other cars in this segment. There are provisions to mount a racing harness, and a fire extinguisher is optional. Items not optional are a touch screen, cup holder, blind-spot monitoring, and Heads Up Display. Those are not needed when racing, so they are superfluous to the Ferrari 488 GTB interior. Ferrari 488 GTB Brakes Going fast is fun. Stopping faster is rewarding. Because the car is so powerful, engineers borrowed the Ferrari 488 GTB brakes from their hybrid supercar. Using all available space behind the wheels, the front rotors measure 15.7" by 1.4" thick. Rears are 14.2" by 1.3" thick. These carbon-ceramic masterpieces can be temperamental when cold, so make sure to trail-brake a little to warm them before you punish the skinny pedal. In track mode, the computer uses Pre-Fill. This system commands the ABS module to keep the pads as close to the rotors as possible. Not only does this provide a quick response in an evasive situation, it gives the driver much more pedal feedback. Side-Slip Control is also implemented by the same hardware. Ferrari 488 Spider Not only does the Ferrari 488 GTB MSRP represent a bargain, but the convertible version also sets records. If you want the power and prestige of an amazing car, it is amazing with the wind in your hair. The Ferrari 488 Spider has a retractable hardtop. It fools many by hiding the seams and mechanism. Even inside, you won't see the bows and hinges found on Ferraris of the past. If you want a true transformer, the Ferrari 488 Spider can make its top disappear in 14 seconds. If that is not enough, the Ferrari 488 Spider for sale can accomplish this at speeds up to 30 mph. You won't sacrifice performance for this ability. That is because engineers stiffened the Ferrari 488 Spider chassis to match the Ferrari 488 GTB chassis. Ferrari 488 GTB Standout Features It was the car that broke the mold. The Ferrari 488 GTB raised the bar for all mid-engine cars. The Ferrari 488 GTB engine became the basis for 7 new models. Another unique feature is 20" wheels front and rear. The front wheels measure 20"x9" and the rear wheels are 20"x 11". As with all high-performance Ferrari 488 GTB specs, the tires are made exclusively. Pirelli supplies a unique P-Zero that is lighter and stronger than others in the same size. Both the Ferrari 488 Spider and the Ferrari 488 GTB are backed by amazing warranties and complimentary maintenance. If you need a world-class Italian supercar in your life and need that car to be on par with the greats in performance, looks, and driving dynamics, the Ferrari 488 price is a good value for an incredible and iconic machine, and the perks and lifestyle of Ferrari ownership come with it. Both the 488 GTB and the 488 Spider are tried, true, and as coveted as Ferraris come. Click the link below and stay with us for all your Ferrari 488 GTB updates.

Ferrari Celebrates Its 75th Anniversary in 2022

The Italian prancing horse continues its legacy. While Ferrari currently operates as one of the most iconic supercar manufacturers in the world, its humble start began when Enzo Ferrari opened his small factory in Maranello, Italy in 1947. With a dream to build racing cars, Enzo set out to change automotive history with the Ferrari 125 S. Since then, Ferrari grew massively with clientele, employees, and enthusiasts cheering for the prancing horse as it laid the foundations for a long history of victories on the race track. Today, Ferrari is proud to celebrate 2022 as its 75th Anniversary of revolutionizing the Italian supercar for both on and off-track use. MUST-READ: Ferrari SF90 Stradale Goes Flat Out at Bonneville Salt Flats In a video created by Ferrari, its employees acknowledge the powerful sense of “teamwork, pride, and excellence” that goes into the brand. The celebration of Ferrari’s 75th Anniversary features a new logo that defines the prancing horse as a puzzle that is only achievable with the help of its dedicated team of employees. The special sculpture is made from thousands of components forged from the factory and assembled one by one with help from Ferrari’s colleagues. The 75th Anniversary of Ferrari celebrates the past, present, and future of the brand while commemorating the individuals that help make it an icon in the automotive industry.

Ferrari SF90 Stradale Goes Flat Out at Bonneville Salt Flats

A visit to the legendary salt flats. Over the previous decades, there have been many records set at the Bonneville Salt Flats. It all started in the early 1900s when Teddy Tetzlaff set the very first land speed record at the location, hitting 142.8 mph in the 300 HP Benz nicknamed "Blitzen Benz 2." After that, legends like Sir Malcolm Campbell and Ab Jenkins popularized the location. In fact, Sir Malcolm Campbell's final land speed record was at the Bonneville Salt Flats and it was one for the record books. In 1935, he managed an average top speed of 301.337 mph, making him the first person to ever drive an automobile over 300 mph. Ferrari knows just how iconic this location is and decided to pay a visit to the salt flats. In the video up above, you'll see a Ferrari SF90 Stradale Assetto Fiorano flying across the white grounds of the Bonneville Salt Flats and sliding gracefully around. The video also provides the lovely sounds of the SF90's exhaust note. Source: Ferrari

Ferrari Finali Mondiali 2021: New and Classic Icons Gathe...

If you attended this event, you won't be forgetting it any time soon. Every year, Ferrari puts on the Finali Mondiali event to wrap up the 2021 racing season. For this year, Ferrari went all out to make the event a truly special one at the Mugello Circuit. The mixture of vehicles in attendance gave spectators the chance to see an almost dizzying amount of Ferraris. There were iconic models, race cars, modern hypercars, supercars, Formula 1 cars, and even a brand-new model, all of which were Ferraris. Source: Motor 1 Italia To start off the event, there were three Ferrari Formula 1 race cars that took to the track, driven by Giancarlo Fisichella, Olivier Beretta, and Andrea Bertolini. After their series of sprints, burnouts, and pit stops, the GT Competition cars came out in a parade of speed and overtaking. For the finale of the action at the Finali Mondiali, Ferrari brought out the new Daytona SP3 that was flanked by the 330 P3/4, the 330 P4, and 412P. Source: Motor 1 Italia Seeing these cars altogether in one place was quite the experience, but it was also very special for Luka Nurmi who became the youngest winner in Ferrari Challenge history and also became the youngest to ever win the world championship. As for the AM class world title, that went to Christian Brunsborg. “It’s so exciting to hold this trophy in my hands”, said Nurmi after the race has concluded. “I have no words to describe my mood. I’m simply thrilled!” To wrap the event up, awards were handed out during the evening to winners of the European and North American Ferrari Challenge series winners.

Ferrari Daytona SP3 Revealed: Inspired by Legends

Ferrari's most aerodynamic car ever. The new Ferrari Daytona SP3 has been unveiled as the automaker's third entrant into their Icona line. Inspired by the 330 P3/4, the 312 P and the 350 Can-Am, the new Daytona SP3 has a wild design that is honestly unlike anything in Ferrari's lineup. But it's not just looks that make it so special, it also is packed with power. Powering the new Ferrari Daytona SP3 is the same 6.5-liter V12 from the 812 Competizione, but it's been tinkered with quite a bit. The result of Ferrari's enhancements to the engine comes out to 828 horsepower and 514 lb-ft of torque, making it the most powerful engine the automaker has ever built. Ferrari notes that it will be able to sprint from 0 to 60 mph in 2.86 seconds and will sprint from 0 to 124 mph in 7.4 seconds. To allow the Ferrari Daytona SP3 to truly take advantage of its engine's power, the engineers have equipped the supercar with the company's most aerodynamically efficient body ever. What's more, Ferrari managed this feat without having to implement active aero. But the body is more than just an efficient creation, it's also downright gorgeous and unlike anything currently in Ferrari's lineup. The wheel arches in the front and rear and clearly inspired by the classic models and give the Daytona SP3 a very muscular appearance. But the most intriguing and exciting design aspect of the new Daytona is the rear where horizontal slats go from wheel to wheel, creating an amazing visual that's honestly not expected from modern Ferraris. Inside, the driver and passenger will peer onto the road through a wraparound windscreen and they'll be resting in seats that are integrated into the chassis. Because the seats are fixed, the driver will have to adjust the pedal box to find the right spot. Ferrari's main focus with this interior was to create a "snug" experience that's inspired by competition cars, and it's obvious to see from the pictures in the gallery down below. The new Daytona SP3 is a perfect car for someone wanting to experience Ferrari's racing competition heritage in a modern setting. In regards to the delivery dates, production numbers, or price of the Ferrari Daytona SP3, that's currently unknown. But, we will keep you up to date when more information is released.

New Ferrari Icona Model Spied On the Streets

Our best look yet at the new supercar. The Ferrari Icona Series was created by the Italian automaker to pay homage to their heritage through modern automobiles. Currently, the series includes the Monza SP1 and SP2 cars that were inspired by the 750 Monza, 250 Testarossa and 166 MM. Now, Ferrari is expected to reveal a new addition to the series this month and the world is excited to see what it will be. Thanks to YouTube Channel Varryx, we at least get a good glimpse as to what we can expect from the new Ferrari Icona. The video shows the supercar under soft camouflage, allowing us to get an idea of its silhouette and see a few features.
