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... 😂😂😂😂
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?
Here in 2021
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
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))
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
kevinsdb1 Yeah, I've yet to see that in this video.
H2r: did they beat u?
Ducati: yes just one of them.
H2r: hold my compressor.
Awokwowkwkow
The h2r is not even street legal
@@sivvinod3187 It didn't look like they were on the street...
@@greebuh the comment said that the h2r will beat both the cars, all I'm saying is that it's not fair to compare these cars and the h2r, because the cars in the video are street legal, and have to abide by laws, unlike the h2r.
@@sivvinod3187 he didn't say where they were racing. And in the video they are clearly not on the street. So you are just talking out of your ass.
The ducati would have won if it wasnt for the weight of the drivers balls
I know right that guy has adamantium nutss
😂
Omg 😆
@Papa Dragon you missed the joke entirely
Anankin12 somebody had to nerd it out
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.
"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
Stephen Morgan
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. 👍
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
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.
2:51 for the race :)

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.
Fact: Somewhere in the world there is a Honda Civic owner who sincerely believes they would of won. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Lol
Fucking Ricers lol
Somewhere in this world there actually is a Honda civic owner who could have won
Hey everyone ^^^^ He's that guy 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@sambenmoser1240 worst thing is ur most likely right 🤣🤣
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.
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
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
+Eggsr2bcrushed seriously?

Liony Leftwich fellas is driving a motorcycle gay?
The pull on p1 was magnificent .
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.
Joke
"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
P1 really does 0-100 in 3.2 seconds on runway launch control was active on cars
Except the bike was launched manually by the rider
Bike won the 1/4 mile 1/2 mile and 1 mile look at the data times those cars can't match that ducati
@@Smzxe u prove ur own point how dumb you are. Keep crying
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.
Just love the Porsche Spyder 😍😍
Vemon GT 0-200mph 14.51 sec
Can't wait to see it on a real track. Unlike most of you think, there is a lot of engineering in this car. But we'll see. I doubt it will be as quick around a track but not too far off and still insanely fast.
but not so technical... Doesnt mach these in a track
irrelavant
these cars are for lap times, not for drag races.
VENOM IS A DEATH MACHINE NOT A HYPERCAR.
so? the venom gt is the outcome of a huge amount of power in a small vehicle. Nothing special at all
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
I've seen the video six years ago. Now I checked it again. Not deleted. Puh! One of the best videos ever!
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?
bike rider has serious balls. one small twitch of the handlebars or one error with the throttle and he's fucked
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
Lol, adrenaline factor on bike is king! also buy yourself a stunning house with change from the car?
bike stole it in every quarter!

2:55
Thank me later 🤷🏻♂️
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
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
The mclaren P1 is My favourite car
Meanwhile...
H2R: Did these 2 cars beat you?
Ducati: Yes.
Yep h2r king of super bikes
Nope . Just one

Eh not really. The bike one the quarter, half and mile.
The P1 is a pure speed machine. It doesn't care about being the loudest or best looking, it just cares about speed. Pure speed.
It is the loudest though
Magucci13 its actually the best looking
The loudest and the best looking in this race
and if it wasn't for the rev limiter would of lost to a motorbike.
@@Dest66 no it won't. The p1 with a proper driver is capable of beating ninja h2. These times are joke.

Love how the bike rider waved as he went passed BYE BYE HAHA
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...
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 ?
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.

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.
that was close enough to say that Porsche will be faster on track with its 4x4. And I know one person I will be calling Jeniffer instead of Jeremy...
*****
topgear print magazine tested both already and ... the 918 destroyed the P1 in corner speed by lightyears... the tester took a corner with the P1 at 130mph and nearly lost it... he took the corner with the 918 several times with increasing speed... he runs out of big enough balls at 160mph....
***** Also Harry Metcalfe confirmed on Twitter that the 918 was faster than the P1 on the Anglesey track

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.

+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

ummm wrong i have the 1299s which is close to the same and these bike have anti wheelies. watch my videos to see it
Why I loved this so much? simple it represented the 3 Best motoring nations on earth each with a Great motoring history, this was amazing guys many many thanks as for who won to me its secondary, we have 3 equal number 1 countries who each did wonders for motoring
The p1 has always been my dreamcar for 5 yrs
I swear the drone shadow at 1:30 made it seem the bike took flight.
True
wow
Good catch.
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)
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...
They say the P1 is king. But yet that bike is only a fraction of the price.
Who cares about price?
If the Ducati rider didnt have to worry about keeping the front wheel on the ground through the first 3 gears, it would've hit the finish line first, despite not being able to hit 200mph!
The bike is king!!!!
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'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
Dusan Pesic Enzo died in 1988.............
can you imagine the great lengths he went to be an ass even when he's dead?
RWD>AWD unless you're the kind of 'keyboard driver' who imagines a GTR to be more fun to drive than an M3
IIXRATEDIIHiTMAN yeap. i actually have more fun in my little Clio Trophy 182 than in my brother's fancy audi S5 (with quattro, torque vectoring shit, dsg). so i think your M3-GTR comparison is accurate.
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.
Man the Ducati was launched perfectly. No drama no wheelie nothing. Just perfect. Now try that race with an kawasaki h2r.
Interesting how they all got a little taste of first place at some point.
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
This video did not disappoint!
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
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.
...sorry for my wet dream comment but dayum... ;u;
haha. I liked this comment because it's honest. That's how many people feel. i suspect you might enjoy my garage ;)
thanks. what's in your garage? -i actually have a dream garage i compiled in ms paint because i have no life-
Cobalt Lukather A number of shiny things. Here's a few www.flickr.com/photos/zootcadillac/
very impressive...especially that Jenson Interceptor (i may be american, but i try to be british sometimes XD) but ALL THOSE DUCATIS!
i have my own garage here: kieth-wolfe.deviantart.com/art/Garage-Collage-355602760
it's only got one Ducati, but i like having a broad range of cars...-for my broad range of bipolar moods-
***** I AM JALOUS!!!! I would love to ride the 2008 Ducati Desmosedici RR!!!!
Ducati has got 1 of the best sounds out of all bikes
+Jordan Wilcox No it as got the best sound of all bikes.
The P1 is my dream car along with the Cullinan. I'm turning 35 in a few days. I will come back to this video when I turn 40 to update on how much closer I am to achieving my dream.
The bike had to let up a bit in the beginning due to wheelies.
i think a ninja h2r will leave tose cars in the dust
i think a ninja h2r will leave those cars in the dust
I chew up H2's! lol
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
See who is faster in traffic.
Also the Ducati is a bargain at £64,000 with hypercar level performance for executive car prices
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.
That P1 is amazing, lovely car.
Three amazing machines right there. It shouldn't be about bike vs car. They are all sick dream machines.
*£ 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.
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.
Although more a car person, ducati is better thrill for the money because its at least 10 times cheaper then both
I knew the bike will be fastest at the beginning but after the car shows who's the boss but the fact that there's bikes like that it's scary that's why I want one
I was so surprised how close the cars were to the bike. The 918 & P1 both masterpieces
That P1 is a marvel of engineering it really is
Doing 192MPH on 2 wheels must be such a fucking rush though
This is one of the greatest motor sport video ever made.
Looks like Bruntingthorp Air strip, if so I was born a few miles away and grew up sneaking in there with friends to watch them test all the new cars...
So what about the Kawasaki H2R
+younes aboulfadl It would destroy them haha!
Uncles got one and believe me nothing in the UK or the Isle of Man comes anywhere near it 😂
It would be unfair. It is a track bike isn't it?
+younes aboulfadl Not street legal.
woifiii But still Earth legal.
After this...Mclaren P1 vs LaFerrari vs 918 :D
4:30 Judging by the wheelies, it looked like the bike was going through the gears pretty quickly, into 4th gear within 30m.
for that P1 to keep up with a bike like that, that's something amazing
Not really. The P1 has a much higher top speed. It was bound to catch up sooner or later.
Excellent job Autocar. Let's see more of these videos!
The Spyder is faster than the P1 on track.
+iEntity XF probably because it is 4wd n p1 is rwd but p1 is the better car
King Pvp Depends on what you understand by better. Prosche wins on trakc because of the acceleration it gets frmo the curves (4WD), but the p1 only wins in a straight line, which is kinda pointless. Thats why I prefer the 918.
+iEntity XF The p1 is a faster accelerating car then the 918
ben leijokariolosunde Look up Salomondrins video, which also includes the bugatti, huayra and laferrari
iEntity XF I'm not talking about off the line acceleration, I'm talking about acceleration while already rolling
Bikes will always beat almost any car for acceleration (especially impressive bearing in mind their low cost) but cars’ massively larger tyre footprint will enable them to beat most bikes around corners...
That Ducati can do faster lap times than these both tho 😂😂
That duc is 10 seconds faster than McLaren P1 on same track 😂
@@Smzxe yeah that’s common sense 😂
unfortunately I was away on a trip that day , , , couldnt teach these guys a lesson on my KTM duke 200. :) :) :)
The extra 200kgs didn't help the Porsche 918.
Damn the Ducati kicked ass! if it were the 1299 panigale I'm sure it'd win the race considering the Mac only just overtook the bike at the very end. Though the data shows that the standing mile the bike wins.
The 1199 Superleggera is faster than 1299 panigale
Limited to 299
@@Smzxe but the 1299 superleggera is faster than the 1199 superleggera
@@desmo8452 I don't think so 1199 is lighter

Ill remember this video when im in the market for my next 200+ mph supercar
"Mate, my 1.2 8v will thrash your P1!" :D
It's no coincidence that the Duc accelerated faster from 100 mph. It takes that long before it'll stop wheelieing and actually put all the power down into forward motion. Stick a long swinging arm on it, drag style, and watch it murder on the 1/8th mile, too. For the same reason, the bike wouldn't be any slower to accelerate with taller gearing (for true top speed), given the close ratios and already tall first gear. For you stat fiends, 152 kg is the _dry_ weight, more like 185 ready to ride (plus rider).
But even a £60 grand bike is a bit rich in this game. Luckily the standard 1199 (that's "eleven-nine-nine", not "one-one-nine-nine") or, better, the 1299 will be every bit as fast in the real world. Ten grand second hand. Cripes!
Failing that, the new breed of 1100+ cc 4 cylinder bikes has arrived. Just lunacy.
