This is the Porsche that was faster than F1, and smashed a 35-year-old Nurburgring lap record… I’ve spoken about it before, but this time I got an interview with the Technical Project Lead - to understand exactly HOW Porsche did it.
And it’s crazy stuff, it’s almost the real-life version of my “F1 with no rules” video from a few weeks ago. They took their already, extremely fast LMP1 car, and made it over 12 seconds faster at Spa -- that’s 11%, a huge amount in motorsport.

"Porsche beat everyone, but me", man, I'd never stop saying that. My wife would leave me and my family would disown me, but I'd never stop saying it.
-
Casually flexes creating a record on brands hatch circuit 🤯😵💫
-
I actually never knew you held the Brands hatch lap record. Props to you mate.
-
I would love to see a no-limits category with tiny budget cap. Like $100,000 per car. Imagine the innovation.
-
Dude, don't stop mentioning your record. That's something to be proud of.
-
Very cool of Porsche to allow this project, and give it enough budget and freedom to succeed.
-
Taking a space ship of a race car to laguna seca and only taking 2 seconds off a track record set by an indycar with no power steering from the time of grainy tv footage is mental and a testament to how good some race cars were.
-
Driver61, the only driver to beat the 919 Evo. Still not as good as me of course but still good
-
Me: knows nothing about cars Also me: worth watching.

23:09 "brake by wire or BBW" JAJAJAJJAJAJA

Seeing this car in action at Rennsport Reunion in 2018 was unbelievable. It clocked 188 mph at the Laguna Seca speedtrap. Anyone who has been there knows the speed trap isn't that far up the main straight. Rocketship does not describe the 919 Evo, and seeing it up close in the paddock was something I will never forget.
-
That Mazda 🎶 though. Porsche: 🎵 ✈️
-
I knew about this, but was surprisingly interested throughout the video in learning exactly how. Great details and interviews!
-
The high tire pressure in the corners is a must. I noticed this on motorcycle tires as well.
-
7:30 Regarding tyre width, increasing it doesn't increase the grip from friction. The formula for friction forces do not even include information about the contact area. However, wider tires are better for race-cars for two main reasons. Firstly, tyres, especially soft racing tyres, don't get all of their grip from simple surface interaction friction, they get some of their grip by smooshing into the gaps and cracks in the road surface which is HIGHLY dependent on contact area. Secondly, larger tyres experience less pressure because the force from the ground is acting on a larger area. This means they wear more slowly (and there's more tyre to be worn away) which lets you get away with softer compounds that have higher coefficients of friction, while still having a working tyre after a lap.

I was in the crowd at Brands Hatch when you broke that record over 20 years ago. It was great to watch.
-
If they used wheel covers, would it go faster?
-
This is one of the best videos you’ve done on a specific vehicle. Thank you. This is awesome.
-
1:43 Love Porsche but that Mazda 787b is still my fave Group C monster 🥰🥰
-
I frigging love the 919 Evo, such a wild project even with the time and budget constraints. Managing to push the carbon tub and tires to their limit just from aero gains is just wild haha.
