Twenty years in the past, supercars were racing each other to see which just one could attain a bigger best speed. Right now, top pace no longer performs the most crucial position but agility. And that’s why the currently conventional for hypercars is the quickest lap on the long loop of the Nurburgring.

Auto Spy Media published these days on youtube a 6-moment video in which the new Mercedes-AMG One enters the Nurburgring circuit and performs a couple of fast laps almost certainly with the purpose to make some options for a future document lap.

The car is initially captured at the entrance of the racetrack and at minute :24 you can examine in German “Nicht ofen (Do not open)” on the rear right aspect. Signed Dale and Ibrahim. Two seconds afterwards, at :26 it can be study on the rear left aspect this time in English: “Remove thoroughly. Thermocouples on Tech panel. See Dale or Ibrahim”.

We never know Dale or Ibrahim but they are in all probability the engineers liable for the a variety of settings of the new Mercedes hypercar.

Then, at :56, the aerodynamic display starts. The driver presses a button on the steering wheel that opens the vents on the entrance fenders and extends the rear wing. The driver carries on with a number of drivetrain configurations from the bottom ideal hand button on the steering wheel and then enters the monitor and starts to complete a couple pretty fast laps. In the upcoming handful of minutes you can see that the Mercedes-AMG A single is really quickly in the corners and the body roll is practically zero, just like an F1 car or truck.

At the instant, the document at the Nurburgring for production vehicles is held by the Porsche 911 GT2 RS with 6:43.30 minutes, registered on June 14, 2021. But this Porsche could be barely named a sequence manufacturing motor vehicle simply because it functions Manthey Functionality Kit, with modifications to the chassis, aerodynamics and brakes.

2nd place is taken by the Mercedes-AMG GT Black Sequence with 6:43.62 minutes realized in October 2020, 1.3 seconds a lot quicker than the Lamborghini Aventador SVJ.

We don’t know how rapidly an F1 motor vehicle is on the Nurburgring extended loop but in 2018 a Porsche 919 Hybrid Evo with Timo Bernhard at the wheel achieved an extraordinary 5:19.546 minutes. We’re not making any predictions but we imagine the Mercedes-AMG Just one can go a good number of seconds under the document established by the Porsche 911 GT2 RS with Manthey-Functionality package that holds the sequence production automobile document.

With active aerodynamics and force-rod suspension, a 1.6-litre V6 motor with 574 HP taken from the F1 car or truck with electrically assisted turbocharging and two more electric motors at the entrance axle, the Mercedes-AMG a single develops 1063 HP in overall. The AMG 1 reaches 100 km/h in 2.9 seconds and 200 km/h in just 7 seconds with Launch Management in Race, Race As well as and Strat 2 modes. The Race2 and Strat2  systems are committed completely for the racetrack and the suspension is decreased by 37 mm in entrance and 30 mm at the rear. In the Strat2 applications the suspension is even firmer than in Race As well as.
