best thing about that... the ducatti has to use the back break to keep the front wheel down in order to keep the throttle pinned through 1st-3rd n still kept with em... 😂😂😂😂
Ducati rider has titanium nuts
he needed a trailer to hold his balls.
The
he's going straight guys. it's not hard to go fast straight go watch isle of man tt that's balls
Steve Vento lol please I pin my R1 every day on the way home. Corners are where the skill Is at
...if you lift too high you shift and throw that run away as lost otherwise a little lift is controlled and the rider is aware that itll come but get the right gearing and clutch set up and it wont lift at all (GSXR-1000 with NOS rider here (best time: 7.999))
3:08 Ducati rider was waving as he passed, that's balls right there.
How did you notice that
Actually that's not so hard on a straight line accelerating from 200 km/h upwards.
Typical day in Moto TT
Not very hard to ride in a straight line... watch MotoGP and then see riders go that fast on a race track...
No idea what these other people are talking about - taking a hand off to wave at 200mph does require a degree of testicular fortitude.
For the FIRST time somone who can actually ride races supercars. Thank you. This was a good run. Very impressed with the rider. Anyone can do 190+ on a car, can't say the same for a bike especially with corners like the TT
You haven't seen maxwrist,have you?
Going fast in a straight line on a bike isn't hard. Getting off the line in a tidy manner is tricky but all you need to do then is tuck in and hold on (and most fast bikes have traction now anyway) TT, of course but that's not a drag race. Racing in a car is also highly skilled.
@Michael Pullins Sorry but that is false. Just because you use traction control does not mean you cant ride. I know owners of superdukes, s1000rr's, R1s, Zx10r's, and for the road they almost always at least have their bikes on a low tc setting.
Besides, i believe Dee Jarvis was referring to launch control and not traction control.
@Michael Pullins " Even Rossi has said he doesn't like T/C and thinks it's cheating" ok boomer.
So you think a multi world champion is an accurate representation of how an average rider should be judged skill-wise?
At high level, on a racetrack, sure, T/C seperates the best from the others. But on the road, the use of T/C does not make you a bad rider.
@Michael Pullins When i said average i meant random, IE not refering to his skill level. You can get very skilled riders who do not race.
Either way, i didnt gloss over what you wrote, i am simply speaking in a context of road use and you are referring to track use.
Electronics are aids, and as bikes become more powerful and capable, more people use them as a safety precaution. Doesnt mean they arent talented riders.
I wont bother arguing anymore we are both fairly set in our philosophies. Btw, what is it that makes you think i am a millenial? Why is it so crucial, for your arguments' sake, that you point it out? Just FYI i am not a millenial, but does thinking i am make you feel superior? more mature? Smarter? more accomplished? Does generalising me as a Generation X validate your points further?
Going over 200 on a motorcycle...now that takes balls lol
The bike hit its top speed below 200mph...
192mph it hit the rev limiter
Kawasaki h2r top speed 400 km/h
Kenan Sofuoğlu approves this :D

I'm just saying that Mclaren P1 is literally timeless
But hasn’t improved much over the years, the new Ducati Superleggera V4 will leave it in the dust
@D J yes precisely
@@sushi_edits225 I mean the p1 is a limited production car so they won’t make another p1 the superleggera however is a series production bike so obviously it’s gonna get more modifications and improvements
@@llawliet9793 there’s the new Speedtail but that’s going to loose to that Ducati on the track, however since it has 1035 horsepower and a top speed of 400km/h, in a straight line the Ducati will pull away till 350km/h and the Speedtail will rapidly catch up. I’m not trying to show hate towards Mclaren and I’m not being biased towards Ducati, I don’t really care what’s faster because at the end of the day I’m a bike guy with a car background
you know this video is a lie, because the Porsche is faster than the McLaren, it’s just that the authors didn’t put the Porsche in that mode on purpose, believe me this video

And that's why everyone should ride a motorcycle at least once. The smiles per gallon are next to none.
And the smiles per $ spent!
Best bang for the buck
😂
Oh, I think driving the McLaren, my smile would be HUGE.
Just Seeing a hypercar in my garage makes me smile bigger than riding a bike
love the ducati, approx £60,000 thats expensive but worth every penny, plus it doesn't get stuck in traffic jams.
I'm not sure I'd want to ride it though any traffic jams - imagine the heat coming off the engine! Cooked biker, anyone?
It's a beautiful machine though, and I think is quite a bargain...a decent Audi . merc . bmw would cost you about the same, but wouldnt be as fun on a trackday...
But you get wet in the heavy rain nothing beats a car in winter.
Ever heard of waterproofs and thermals.
Stu Frost, try cycling... Never get stuck ➕ low cost
Stu Frost and also easier to have an accident in
Can we all take a moment to appreciate what a good bit of riding that Ducati pilot displayed? I mean the other two basically had to mash their foot and hold the steering wheel straight - those cars literally did all the work.
That bike launch, shifts, and overall run took masterful skill. Kudos to the rider.
I'm not gonna lie... I would give anything to have a ride on that bike. That is most definitely the biggest adrenaline rush of the 3.
Mad Pistol If you want a car as fast as your bike, you have to pay at least 10 times more money. If you want a car that is as enjoyable as your bike, you won't even find one for 100 times more money
Bonzo Bonzai or spend the difference on track days and driver trainings, so you don't need prosthetics ;)
DerStratege408 and you get in a crash at 20 mph and possibly die, and ill just wipe the dust off my shoulder and walk away. (not dissing bikes because i ride one myself just stating facts.)
desilmd possibly, but if you don't drive in a tank, you will allways get kind of a risk remaining. Of course that risk is higher when you're on a bike, but it can even happen to you as a pedestrian. About 10 days ago, i had to jump of the street because a woman in a car thought she should ignore the traffic laws (if thats the right word for the rules that say when you are allowed to drive and when you have to wait).
*****
did i ever say you could not? i dont see your point here.
Wtf how is p1 king
Bike won the quarter mile,half mile and a full mile
Bike accelerated faster to 186mph
P1 just had top speed if not for the rev limiter bike would have hit 200mph
Yes, you are right
Bike would have had an even bigger lead the start had the rider managed the wheelie. But bike's big bro "the Ducati v4", will beat the p1 definitely.
The p1 is better
The real race was between the p1 and 918 plus on a track the P1 would rip both in half
Ryan's Motorsports thev’e done this, on track 918 is faster, you can search on youtube
Why is Ferrari such a bad sport when it comes to lending cars for comparative tests....they even prevented Top Gear from having a head to head with the P1/918 when they had all 3 in the studio.
McLaren and Porsche are just like 'lol go ahead', they're comfortable with their cars being compared to incredibly good rivals and they know people will still pay millions for them regardless of which one is a few milliseconds faster around a race track.
All about advertising. McLaren is still a baby company, Porsche finally entered the Hypercar business, Ferrari has been making supercars since the 80s. Why risk the LaFerrari losing? I don't like Ferrari's methods anymore than you, but I see why.
They managed to get a LaF for the new version of Too Gear ;3 but yea that's annoying because it's nice to compare the 3
Right? They are probably the best trio since the Gallardo, Italia, and 12C. And of course Top Gear did, they are the best! ^.^
SideArms bruh Then that new hybrid Koenigsegg will come and spoil it all.
Then again, the Regera technically isn't a Hybrid, even Koenigsegg admited this. "...the Regera is not what we at Koenigsegg would call a hybrid, as it does not have the traditional shortcomings of a hybrid." Also the Regera is more built for luxury than perfomance.
If you want to get there first and have an extra $750 - $800k in your pocket, then buy the Ducati !

Ferrari always declines
They're worried they'll lose, they sell their cars regardless, so they don't want to risk being shown up.
Porsche is bigger and their not scared.
they always decline because they always lose, it is literally in the contract of when you buy a LaFerrari that you cant race it against the 918 or the p1

Actually, the bike is king. 2nd to 30. 2nd to 60. 1st to 100. 1st to 150. And 1st in the standing mile. Autocar needs to review the data with staff members who can read.
and last to 200. oh wait it cant even reach 200.
Ya but who wants to ride to work in the rain on a super bike while looking like a idiot
Yeah, but who wants to be stuck in traffic in a super car looking like an idiot?
You also need to read or listen as the race was first to 200mph! The bikes gears topped out at 192mph hitting max revs which is when the P1 took over and hit 200 mph before the bike could wind up the other 8mph, so with a longer last year the bike could win but then your modifying it so you could also modify the P1 and then where do you stop? Obviously there are bikes and cars out there that can destroy these but you have to heavily modify them whereas all 3 of these are stock!
Martyn Dyson It didn't top out. Motorbike manufacturers put a 6th gear RPM limiter on sports bikes to restrict how fast they can go. For instance my old Hayabusa can go over 200mph because I put a Power Commander on it, with fools the ECU in thinking it's still in 5th gear.. so the limiter doesn't kick in and it's free to go. And no.. I haven't gone that fast with it. No highways around here safe enough to try it and 155mph was scary enough for me.
"On this day, in this particular challange, the P1 was king". What was the challange? Quickest to 200? So you pit the P1 against a bike that tops out at 192mph? Nice 🤣
Bike won the 1 mile race look at the times
the cars didnt used their launch control which is a great xp for cars
@@anurag15271 shut up look at the Porsche dashboard launch control was working

@@Smzxe u prove ur own point how dumb you are. Keep crying
I still come back to this video every once in a while. It’s a perfect car video.
Steve is a legend and the intro editing is just fantastic.
that the 918 takes longer to get to 200 is because after 250Km/h (155mp/h) the front electric motor disengages from the wheels. it does so because unlike the rear electric motor it doesn't have a gearbox between it and the frontwheels so it would keep spinning fatster and fatster wich could damage or destroy it. And so after 250km/h the 918 is missing 125hp and thats why it takes longer to get to 200
Very interesting. Thanks!
MigotRen i rather have the 918 even though its limited and advanced with electric motor. I want one so bad smh
I have so much respect for these 3 machines.

Ferrari ducking the battle again, shock. Somehow always never available or declining.
Ferrari would need half a day to tune the diva LaFerrari for even just that short track so it would keep up with the pace of the Ducati. And they know that very well, that's why they chicken out every time. And it also would get dark outside by then.
Almost like they're running a business. They made the most powerful, lightest car, and sold them all before the P1 and 918. Why then entertain some internet dick waving? Unnecessary.
Malc180s Eh. I guess it's how you look at it. I think they built the fastest in a straight line, but its certainly not "better" than the P1 or 918. None of these cars are simple by any means, but the Ferrari is definitely the most simple of the 3. Less was required to meet the goals in making the car. On a track, the Ferrari will be the slowest unless theres a crazy long straight. And they sold/made less cars and sold them all on the "Ferrari" name alone, no one outside of Ferrari drove them until they shipped out. As for the "dick waving", I think its completely necessary. How do you get potential buyers, future customers, etc excited about your cars and brand? Now, currently over the past few years especially, we've been seeing this "bitchassness" from Ferrari with tuning cars before giving them to press, never letting people drive them outside Marenello, and even being asses with owners...I think its going to bite them in the ass, soon. Ferrari is household name because its has a storied history, but most people don't know their actual cars, its just "A Ferrari". When I hear people, even not car people, talk about other brands such as Mclaren, Porsche, Pagani, or Lamborghini people actually know what model it is because them see them in ads, on tv, on the internet. Just my two cents lol
Ferrari is the Floyd Mayweather of the car testing world.
Malc180s The P1 is lighter and the only reason why they soldout first is because of their name and reputation of road cars and that they made very little of them vs Porsche made over 900

A bike is no doubt the most efficient way of high-performance transportation but it totally sucks in the wet/cold in comparison. For the summer it's the ideal choice if you aren't carrying people around or worrying about your clothes/hair being messed up on the way to the destination.
Military Brothers Agera RS will leave the H2R though. Easy
what he's tryna say is you spend MILLIONS of dollars on those cars and a $60,000 bike can destroy them
Your analysis is nonsense _"...on the day the P1 is king..."_ - The P1 was third to 60, was second to 100 and 150 (behind the bike) and only got to 200 in first place because the bike didn't get there at all. There's no point in being the fastest to 200 against a machine that can't get to 200.
hAzArDzOnE If that's true then I don't understand why they didn't run up to 200 ?
hAzArDzOnE The bike... In the race it didn't get to 200, why not if it's capable of that speed ?
***** In which case I stand by my comments, it was a bad analysis of the race.
the Ducati can reach 210mph but you need a longer track.
Johonan andrew gomes
Do you honestly believe that was the only reason the Ducati didn't get to 200 mph ?
Still an awesome race! The front electric motor in the 918 Spyder stops after around 140MPH hence its power is reduced by around 130HP 👍🏻
So THAT’S what happened. I had no idea. I thought it must have had a problem.
Looks like not many picked up on that.
"We have these 3 vehicles, how do we make the P1 the winner?"
0-60 - unchecked
Q mile - unchecked
Standing mile - unchecked
200mph - WINNER
You buy a hyper car for 0-200 mph bragging rights otherwise buy a Porsche Turbo or Nismo GTR.
Stephen Morgan You buy a P1 to say you have a P1 lol

You buy any other cars because you can't afford a P1, if we all could that would be the only new car on sale.
Sore looser. You just British engineering, so go back home. 👍
MORAL : If you want a car for 1 mile drag race, buy P1. If you want a car for track times, buy 918, If you are a jerk who never wants to win against P1 or 918, buy LaFerrari.

WAKE UP!!!!!
So here´s what happened: It needs a ~Million Dollar Car to compete with a Bike.... Nice :-)
+mrbrunse and one mile of track to win for the P1, after 150mph it takes realy "long" for a bike to increase speed, so it suprised me that the 918 spyder was slower than the bike. If the track was 1km instead of 1 mile, the result would propably look diferent.
next up on the news reel: water is wet
blah blah... bang vs buck blah blah....

Very expensive way to die, but would 10/10 would take a risk of dying that way if i could afford one :)
Bikram Shah indeed. I would rather die in the open air having fun than boxed up in an electrical machine
in traffic you get runover with your bike.
John Moore I would like to die in an E-type. A symbol of grace and beauty, of heart and soul.
"Boxed up in an electrical machine" is quite insulting. Not all cars are "electrical machines". Theres the stunning E-type, the hardcore F-type , the cheap but fun MX5, to name a few. A car isn't just an "electrical machine", in the same way a bike isn't just a "powered bicycles. There are some that take your breath away.
I don't think any P1 or a 918 is stuck in traffic very often.
Unless they choose to be to pose.
The reason why Ferrari declined the challenge was that they know P1 will beat it so they declined it to stop them from getting embarrassed.
While we all know Ferrari isn't big on these battles and that's sorta sad, there is not a single reason to believe the LaFerrari would not have beaten both the 918 and P1 in this race.
why didn't they show it to the world? Katasslicker butt
RollsReus08 Why would they? They've sold all their cars, and you're watching Mclaren videos talking about Ferrari.
I think it's great they generally don't get involved in all the internet dick waving.
Katasslicker butt Ferrari is a bunch of cheaters that sends engineers to tune their cars up to maximum hp that their customers would not get, so i honestly do not give a fuck whether they attend the damn challenge, they are arrogant assholes.
I agree. The LaFerrari is a joke. The most expensive. The fuel consumption is a joke compared to the other two. Performance details of the laferrari I've seen was all factory claimed. No facts it just say sub 3 sec 0-100km/h not like a recorded figures like the other 2. Same with the top speed. 350+km/h.

Awesome video, the start is indeed surprising, I thought the 918 would get a bigger advantage from its 4WD system! What a shame Ferrari didn't come with a car... Since it's lighter and more powerful, there's no reason not to :/
LaFerrari weight figures have been creeping out. It is not much lighter then the P1 like all have been claiming. So the Mclaren does have a small chance due to a smaller package. I think LaFerrari is carrying more in CD vs the P1.
The Ferrari is slightly stronger but all the numbers seem to even out.
The Top Gear test had them even at 100 so all is inline here.
Loved this thanks.
P1 FTW :-)
That was odd too, but I feel like they should have done more runs. Even the older GTR, Lambo and 911 Turbo S can get under 2.9 seconds to 60, so this made these cars look slower than I expected.
They did make more then 1 run. Someone posted some comments from Mr. Steve in video. He is going give a break down of times in a runs.
The p1 isn't in race mode its ride height is to high.
ed gallegos So...? In Race mode this car is not street legal anymore. So no fair comparison. But they cheated anyhow but setting the 918 to race not to hotlap mode (which IS street legal).
BlackMesa RF
I didnt know race mode was not street legal for the P1. Thanks for the info!!
***** this is correct, but i dont know if they change something in the gearbox, too. so it might be faster or slower. We'll never know ;)
ed gallegos If the bike was set up for the race the gearing would have been tall enough.
+Dick Johnson but with more downforce the traction and torque would increase as well probably allowing the P1 to go off the line faster and that would also compensate for the little bit of extra drag
Just love the Porsche Spyder 😍😍
Sorry but you cocked up the 918 launch a little. That thing should be bang on 2.5 seconds every time, especially when the Turbo S is always hitting 2.6/2.7.

Thanks for the informative reply!
+Artyom Timiryazevskaya The Ducati 0-100 time as logged is not fast by bike standards, there are sports tourers that can do it under 5 in perfect conditions with a perfect start. I guess the light weight might be working against it off the line in terms of keeping the front wheel on the deck
Rob W
ummm wrong i have the 1299s which is close to the same and these bike have anti wheelies. watch my videos to see it
Hang on - "The P1 is king"?
You perform a drag race, don't really specify the distance, then don't clearly state the winner, then put up times on screen implying that it was a mile race, with the bike having the fastest standing-mile time, and call the P1 king?? Last time I checked, 25.44 was a smaller number than 25.49... Come on guys, really?
They said in the video that it was about which one could hit 200mph faster. In that sense the bike wasn't even a competitor. Although I agree with you in that it makes no sense whatsoever. The bike won hands down.
They put a lot more data than that... Read it.
This is totally biased shit, the porsche would've won if the person driving it would be more focused and kept both his hands on the steering wheel! What a Numpty!
If the bike had another gearing it would do it in way under 25sec i've Seen regular bmw' s1000rr doing it under 25sec and they're much slower then a panigale superleggera.. But those BMW has changed sprockets so they can accelerate for 1 mile this bike was hitting 190 mph in 1km or 0.7 miles lol.. So re gear it and it would never been Seen AGAIN
The bike had it's mile-time highlighted, but as stated it was a stand-in for another car. The video was intended as a hypercar showdown... Who cares about bikes in a straight line anyway ^^ Mopeds for grown-ups.
I swear the drone shadow at 1:30 made it seem the bike took flight.

So disappointed that before making this video, no one, not one person involved was smart enough to consider the top speed limiter on the bike and how to over come that obstacle temporarily for this test, hands down with rev extender and top speed eliminator, the bike would have continued to accelerate
Hmm, I doubt it. Bikes have pretty poor aerodynamics. Anything over that would require a lot more power. Bike totally won in terms of grins per buck, though.
I think the point is to compare both cars and bike as stock. Not with mods added
04m6gto sport bikes not only have rev limiters they are required to have a top speed limiter, rev limiters can be extended with ECU flashing/PCV mods, but top speed limiters have to be ECU flashed out as an option. Do some research “google top speed limiter” on sport bikes, modern bikes have top speed limiters that is directly connected speed sensors used for items like traction control, and ABS. You can also search in youtube and see mods where top speed limiters were removed. I myself have extended the rev limiter on all my bikes that have a PCV, I have not had the ECU flashed to remove the top speed as in my area, it is impossible to get near the top speed. If you take the time to search in youtube you can also find videos showing you people having the top speed limiter removed although for most, they will never come near that. This top speed limiter is required on all liter bikes to be street legal, not sure when they started doing this but if it has ABS and traction control, it has a top speed limiter if it is over 1000cc sport bike
HugoAlexelelelel then the cars should have top speed limiters added to stop them also at 186 mph or 300 kph to be a fair test or just limit the test to 0 - 186
04m6gto obviously you don’t understand that factory speedometers are up to 10% off/miscalibrated.. that explains the extra speed also once you count the calibration of how they determined the speed. You obviously don’t understand, in EU and the US you are not allowed to sell bikes over 1000cc without a top speed limiter, and i am not your bud.
Interesting how they all got a little taste of first place at some point.
According to the data.. The ducati won the race by .05 seconds?
lol
a Lil more, the P1 would of won, so that's why in the video they say: "The P1 Is King."
787B already it won fool
lambo_rulez That comment made me think of Mr. T "FOOL"
The race was first to 200. The Ducati didn't hit 200.
Next time ask Jay Kay if you can borrow his Laferrari lol come on do it for the fans!
I think the Ferrari will win tbh even though I love the 918 coz im in love with Porsche lol
They should have had Deadmau5 bring his Purrari before Ferrari did the cease and desist to it.
Sadly if he did, he would all of a sudden find himself no longer on the special list at Fiorano.
The P1 has electric motors , did the P1 shut off its motors ?
Autocar could not ask any private owner to give their LaF because Ferrari said if autocar does that, Ferrari will no longer allow them to test any of their media cars in the future (almost like that)
All that money and technology to just get beaten by a bike that costs about 2% of what the cars cost 🤣
Alan Waller and bike weight 1/10 car’s weight🤣🤣
Doesn't matter....car have safe size to accelerate
Bear in mind the bike in question here is making better than 220 hp and weighs in at 150 kilos with a rider who weighs another 50 kg..so the bike’s power to weight ratio is better than 1-1...you do the math🧐
@@gregst7406 the rider is 50kg? Is ur driver a 13/14 year old boy
sup it was a typing error but you get the point you fucking Moron! Now did I spell that out right?
Sorry...but the Bike was clearly king. (ok...the porsche off the line...which was bloody impressive.....still though...simple traction...)....no rev limiter and the Bike KEEPS pulling away from both until you run out of road or the rider crashes from insane high speeds.
No it didn't, the bike ran out of power at around 140mph whereas the P1 just kept going. Didn't you watch the video?
you obviously didn't. The bike was faster to 150. Listen to what he said at 5:08. "The bike CONTINUED TO PULL AWAY until it hit it's rev limit at 192 mph."
And LOOK at the trap speed THROUGH the mile.
You need to learn to pay attention to what's being said instead of just looking at a video and thinking the picture is telling you the truth.
Did you have the sound off when you were watching?
***** I think you missed the part where the announcer was going over the telemetry and said the bike continued to pull away from the cars until it hit its limiter at 192. The P1 caught up because the bike hit its limiter. It was also the fastest at the standing mile.
I'm not aware of any track in the world with a mile of straight so I'm pretty sure this all adds up to the bike having the most usable speed. Oh and you can also get something reasonably close to the Superleggera for what you'd pay for tires on the 918 and P1...
Until it hit its rev limiter and the cars started to catch up - the P1 ultimately overtook it. 5:59 he says 'The P1 was king'. Stop kidding yourself - the bike lost.

Sheela Choudhary Lamborghini is overrated
Its your fourth comment against Ferrari... you are a typical HATER . LaFerrari is Faster than P1 on track (even in Salomondrin video)... and much more Important, Ferrari lead the supercar market and grows up year by year... deal with it
At 150mph the 918 disengages its front motor which is why the acceleration is reduced.
3:20 - The combination of "Tire pressure warning and 200mph" would eventually worry me ;)
Maybe I'm missing something but the bike is rev limited and can't go 200 is that right? So what is the point of racing the bike to 200 shouldn't they have known it's not capable of going 200?
Tom D Nope!
The bike needed to run a taller final gear and it wouldn't of hit the rev limiter.
All motorcycles of that caliber are either limited or the speedo goes to N/A because of an agreement between manufacturers so there aren’t laws put in place to stop them from making the “fastest” street motorcycle.
I'm impressed. I'd take the 918 anyday over the P1, LaFerrari or the Ducati. But this was a great race.
that ferrari v12 sounds great though
too bad enzo's an ass

Game over!!
Boz the Ninja will kick all their asses 😁
The H2R would even beat the 0-400 of the Agera RS
Guten Tschüss nop agera rs its faster
And in general top cars vs top bikes always cars are faster
I've seen the video six years ago. Now I checked it again. Not deleted. Puh! One of the best videos ever!
Ducati, I love you. I love you I love you I love you.
Motorcycles and cars are apples and oranges, whatever is your cup of tea may not be mine, live with it. but Superleggera, not only are you fast enough to dance with cars ten times more expensive, you are even more beautiful and more thrilling to me than them.

Ducati has got 1 of the best sounds out of all bikes
+Jordan Wilcox No it as got the best sound of all bikes.
Soooo in other words the duc smoked the cars all the way up to its rev limiter. So the P1 wins by default
It was up to its rev limiter in top gear, so basically it could not go any faster even if the limiter was removed (unless you fancy blowing up the engine i guess)
M3Conv no its just a gearing issue. Which is a simple fix. All super bikes are limited. This bike will do over 200
***** the bike was pulling on them all the way up to its LIMITER. Then the P1 passes it. All bikes have limiters.
***** A moped that smokes a P1? Right...
***** sounds pretty butt hurt calling one of the best motorcycles on this earth a moped. Does a moped walk away from the mighty P1 like the Duc did? Nope. The P1 will catch it top end I'm not denying that but the ducati had it beat simple and plain. And the only reason it didn't win the 200mph race is because of its limiter. Other then that the race was clearly being one by the bike. Not that you would know anything about going fast in your civic brah

Insert random comment about your mom
slightest mistake going that fast on a bike and it's a wrap....
Hats off to you sir
Actually more stable the faster you go, to a certain speed anyways. Unless you turn the bars or hit something these bikes are stable as hell. Just takes brass nuts to do that speed. I hit 150mph on my Triumph and it was like I was doing 200 lol. The wind force was nuts.
Excellent job Autocar. Let's see more of these videos!
The bike was set back by the front wheel lifting at the first 3 gears. The driver could not rev as much as he wanted to. Once that problem went away the bike outran them both. That is up to the point where it didn't...
I was so surprised how close the cars were to the bike. The 918 & P1 both masterpieces
Realistically then, round a track It'll be the bike or the 918, since the P1 didn't catch up until 120ish, which you aren't going to do all that much of on track.
ehh p1 would be in race mode and change it all
+a swaggy ferret but the 918 also has a race mode, and AWD.
p1 is really heavy,
or realistically, the 918 was able to get ahead due to standing start. You don't enter every straight on a track with a standing start now do you? :b And yes, the P1 did close the gap before 120, it just only surpassed at 120 due to the awd headstart of the 918.
it would depend on the sort of track. A car on a circuit like nurburgring will win from any bike i think, but a car on a bike track the cars would lose. Look at TT Assen times and Car racing times at Assen and you can see what i mean
Problem with the porsche is it's electric motors...other video/magazines that tested it found out that the electric motors decouples at about 146mph. So from that speed up it only has 608hp. I'm waiting for the Koenigsegg Regera;-)
thats not a problem, 918 is build for the track, and not for a boaring kindergarden drag race

It would be unfair. It is a track bike isn't it?
+younes aboulfadl Not street legal.
woifiii But still Earth legal.
So in real life situations the Porsche is the fastest.
Coz its 4wd
you don't get to race with a hyper car in real life.
yep. i see people buying porche way more than other supercars because it has a back seat, decent fuel consumption for that kind of car, 4x4, storage space, comfort, speed and it's easy to drive. you can use it as a day by day car.
The Vibe That`s also the reason why it was slower all in all. It`s way more heavy than the McLaren and it has less hp. But as an looking at what it should it`s the better car.
The Vibe the only reason the porsche has sold more is beacause their are 918 of them and only 375 of the p1 and the p1 hs already sold out. also since when dose the 918 have 4 seets
Kawasaki h2 would be over the horizon before those cars even reach 100mph
Not unless you have something to stop it flipping it wont 😂
@@paulstevens9409 it has launch control (or you could extend the swing arm by 50cm to make it insane off the line)
@@yobaafett well the swing arm would def help, but launch/traction control basically cuts power, defeating the object
@@paulstevens9409 that's why I said extend the swing arm, but then It wouldn't be stock so I'm not sure if that's cheating
Actually a H2 is almost 100kg heavier than the superleggera and really doesn't have that much more power, the Ducati would still beat it
That P1 is a marvel of engineering it really is
Doing 192MPH on 2 wheels must be such a fucking rush though

No when you lack power the potential is not there, at all.
When its gearing the potential is there but its being wasted i.e all you need is a £15 cog.
no silly, power is not the only thing that determines whether or not a car/bike hits 200mph.
Gearing, weight and aero are equally as important
i bet he got a boner...

Big pops hayabusa beats that ducati anyways.... hayabusa can go 350km/h stock with rev limiter removed...
Edit: also if a car needs to get modified to beat a bike... lets see a modified bike vs a modified car... [that racing channel] a 1200hp supra cant even beat non modified h2 or r1m stock.
JerseyMikeP Did you get your info from BuzzFeed?
Most street stock bikes are tuned to max out at around 180. The Ducati quitting at 190 was quite predictable.
Very Interesting race for sure.
We can add LaFerrari here too, because it raced against The Bugatti Veyron in this same location recently in VMAX200 (there are LaFerrari vs Bugatti videos floating around UA-cam if you want to watch).
Top Speed wise:
LaFerrari: 207 mph
McLaren P1: 204.7 mph
Porsche 918: 194.64 mph
Please Autocar, do some track times now!
LaFerrari and Veyron were raced with passengers unlike video here. The SS model would provide a better match. Released figures of base model put it behind after 100 easily.
918 all day, everyday, forever. The best engineered things on earth...Porsche.
yet it lost against the bike.
Its his opinion shut up
918 still the best build out there amazing car.....yes it got,beat, but hands down any day any day take it over all the other supercars
Nope the best is mc maren hands down
*£ per mph* ...... the Ducati is KING !
Drop the limiter, drop 1 tooth of the rear sprocket & run the wheelbase to the maximum & the Duck would have won every factor.
As proven by the Grand Tour: "It all depends on the shoe."
YES ALL DEPENDS
Adidas shoes are too spongey
Race starts at 2:56
The bike had to let up a bit in the beginning due to wheelies.
Gotta give credit to the P1 for straight line performances over 130mph. It's the best of the 3. Meanwhile the 918 is best till 100mph and the LaFerrari is best nowhere, neither around tracks nor in straights. But still the most desirable tho!
I am sure that Ducati can kick out laferrari's balls....................ANY DAY.
Any cheaper sport bike with the [price difference put into modify it would EASILY... RAPE the Ducatti.
Suzuki or Kawasaki being the best BAG 4 the $$$. ANYTHING ITALIAN IS OVER-RATED!
ALFA WOLF h2r would have beat both of them

+Robert Lulek buddy I might have believed you if you spelt it wright
The fact the bike matched the two cars off the line while managing wheelie effect is immense, what a rider!. Even as a biker myself, it still astonishes me that both a P1 and 918 at full tilt are going backwards from the rear camera on the bike. And to only be caught by the P1 because it ran out of gearing is mind blowing, give it an extra gear and that Ducati would probably just keep going at the same pace.
"On this day, the P1 was king". Pretty sure the Ducati can legitimately dispute that statement...
The extra 200kgs didn't help the Porsche 918.
Its not surprising the Mclaren P1 was the fastest. Its a rear wheel drive power train. So its definitely more optimized for high speed racing versus the all wheell drive system in the Porsche 918. All wheel drive may help you get out the hole faster but it wont help you in the high end. Rear wheel drive is the best set up for high speed numbers.
+Servant of JESUS CHRIST dats right bro in christ
I'd still have the 918 though bruv in Christ
+Servant of JESUS CHRIST on track awd has more benefit than rwd
That can not be said to be true especially if the rear wheel drive car you are talking about light weight. Rear wheel drive cars put down faster numbers more than all wheel drive. They only advantage all wheel drive has is that it snatches out of the corners. But give the rear wheel drive car enough time and it will have more momentum into a given corner. Just have to know how to put the power down
+Servant of JESUS CHRIST Well 918 is faster around certain tracks than the P1 despite it being heavier so your point only carries half the truth. Allahu Akbar!
VERY GOOD RACE...But Porsche beat P1 and Ducati in the 1/4 mile and the mile very. quik.... Ducati is strong bike and P1. is amazing 😄👍
Finally someone who isnt biased
+Buuster1999 ...but my favorite is the Porsche. 🇩🇪😎😄👍
truthutub tbh ferrari and porsche are my fav car manufactures of alltime, which porsche do you like the most?
So the 918😂
+Buuster1999 ...I think those manufacturers are the best of all Time 🇮🇹 Italy & Germany 🇩🇪 Porsche got one of the Best Engine in history with fair price and very aweso.e sound!...Ferrari best looking and very good sound as well! 😄👍
Love how the bike rider waved as he went passed BYE BYE HAHA
1:25 JEEEEEEEEEEEEZ the 918 can pull O_O
...and wtf to the comparison itself, srsly brits again putting themselves in the lead:
1. he didn't use the launch control in the 918 as you can (not) hear. normally the engine revs to about 4000rpm before launching. but he started from idle rpm.
2. the 918 as you can see at 3:07 is at 150mph when the bike overtakes it. the mclaren comes even later. at 3:18 you can see the p1 is about 10 meters in the lead, but the 918 already was at 195mph there.
not wondering the p1 is quicker on the standing mile, though a shame for mclaren they couldn't even barely accelerate the car as fast as mclaren says. and that is the big topic: mclaren overrates their car numbers, whereas porsche (always did and always will) underrate their cars.
Launch control or not this surface doesn't allow 918 to have it's 4WD full advantage.
The video is only from 1 run. There were 3 runs from what I saw on a forum. Every run had different times. Mr. Steve is said to be posting how all was done here soon.
Last I checked all claimed number were slower then what was claimed.. I already knew 918 wasn't doing this 2.2 0-60 here. Many in the 918 crowd really thought that last P1 video by Mr. Steve proved the Porsche was faster.
The test proved the 918 carries it's high torque only so far like the Ring video show all. Porsche could have installed a 2 gear E-motor instead of 1 gr in video. Of course there are compromises and tradeoffs. Weight would have went up even farther. A bigger battery also needed to help sustain such massive torque to maybe 180 or so.
More cooing and electronics aids just add more to the weight issue. Had they did all I stated , this car would have been around 2 tons with all fluids.
If you want a Mclaren to blow by this Porsche. The P1 GTR is coming with the F1 ERS system they didn't install in normal P1. A push of a button and 918 in the rear view at any rpm.
Jeffrey Williams uh the p1 gtr won't be street legal.
Launch control would at least have made the 918 0.2s or so faster to 60.
Of course the p1 is faster above a certain speed but when the video obviously says that the mclaren overtook the 918 at between 175-185 mph and sutcliffe says 130mph i don't like that, because it's biased.
CrimnlBT
I never said P1 GTR was street legal. The comments are based on this setup in video not on street.
Jeffrey Williams yes but comparing a race car with a street legal hyper car with all the luxury etc. is not neccessary^^
and of course the 918 wouldn't have made 2.2 to 60 there, but with launch control a decent 2.6 would at least have been possible.
CrimnlBT
I'm not comparing them in any way. The P1 GTR is just a reference point.
Basically the P1 is a detuned version of the Track model. The street model is no longer the top model in Mclaren.
My point is many crying oh P1 should have blown past 918 which is false. The P1 GTR has ERS system to do such. Of course no video or test have come out yet but the specs do suggest it.
Nothing against the 918 it held on the whole race. Porsche should be proud of a great product. Just maybe they might get in this track model stuff.
The p1 has always been my dreamcar for 5 yrs
After this...Mclaren P1 vs LaFerrari vs 918 :D
What an absolutely incredible duel between 3 world class machines with matchless pedigree... the absolute best in each individual field!👌🏽👍🏽
