The F1 is truly a amazing car. It came out in 1993, it can do over 240MPH, 0-60 in 3.1, and a prototype did the nurburgringin 7:11. With modern tires it could probably get into the high 2s range for 0-60 and possibly even do a sub 7 minute lap. It took 16 years for a car to beat it around the nurburgring and it took 13 years for its top speed to be beaten. It is still a hypercar today which shows how bat shit insane it was in 1993. It is truly one of the best cars ever.
You're forgetting modern safety requirements. In 93 you could get away with a lot that now would add tons of bulk and weight if you tried to build one today.
A bit sad that they discarded this idea with the new cars, but if you look closely at the new GT's headlights you can see a little swing beneath them imitating the "Speedmark" called logo. THAT took me some time haha!
PlokTheMasterGamer I never tried this on my own - only on a buddies ps2- he figured it out n showed me ...i was like awww- at like 13..... 17years ago LMFAO
The F1 was the car that got me to love cars. The F1 is my all time favorite car EVER! PERIOD! I was 8 years old when the F1 came out in 93 and my first time seeing that machine was in a video game. Need for speed 2.
Ferrari: “we are the best” Lambo: “no, we are the best” McLaren: “Hey, that looks fun. Let me try” *plops out the F1* Ferrari/Porsche/Lambo: “...get out of here”
I'm ashamed of myself. I've lived in Auckland, New Zealand for over 30 years (where Bruce McLaren is from) and I still haven't visited his memorial/museum where he used to live above a gas station.
The 12c is such a bargain in the secondhand market. Exotic looks/sound, & superior performance for a low six figure price. Just make sure you get a warranty lol
Not really, it's buildquality is vastly inferior to the cars after it. And compared to other brands, you can get better for same amount of money. Porsche 997 Gen 2 Turbo S is faster and cheaper, not to mention more reliable. Fun fact: The Mule for the MP4/12C was a Ferrari 360.
spekhugger people fault the 12c for being too "perfect" the only reason they fault it for that is that it beats its competitors by far since it has almost no flaws their main argument of attack is that it "has no soul" or basically saying too perfect
Mclarens have always been a favorite for me. As a child I was obsessed with the F1. When the 12c came out I was super excited too lol. Not that I could afford one right now. The P1 is just an amazing technological marvel.
Fun fact. Mclaren F1 used the Honda Nsx as a benchmark. Gordon Murray the designer owned one and even approached Honda to make an engine for the F1 as Mclaren were using Honda power in F1 and we're dominant at the time Look it up . Quite interesting
"It didn't have the same soul as the Ferraris and Lamborghinis. (I.E. It started everytime) " This is why I watch DonutMedia religiously, literally blasted laughing LOL Keep 'em comming! Cheers from Portugal ;)
ZiRA meaning older Ferraris and Lambos of the time were sometimes problematic, some still are, the F1 just wasn't. It's a joke, don't take it seriously. Ferraris are a bitch to maintain but are not that unreliable.
I think the car that Bruce McLaren died in is worth to mention. It was *McLaren M8D* One of few cars that actually can compete with mighty 917. It has Chevrolet V8 producing up to 750hp, in 1970!
and he died because the car was so aero dynamic and the spoilers downforce adjustment was not tuned right, so the rear end was too loose and he lost control and hit a marshal tower that was supposed to have been removed weeks before but hadnt
You forgot to tell before Mclaren resort to using BMW engine, chief engineer Gordon Murray was really keen on using Honda's engine because he was so impressed by Honda NSX and during the time Mclaren Formula 1 team were also using Honda motor. Hr went to Honda's Tochigi Research Center on two occasions to persuade them to build for the McLaren F1 a 4.5 litre V10 or V12. But in the end he could not convince them to do it, and the McLaren F1 ended up equipped with a BMW engine
Anas Takiyudin they COULD NOT do it which is different, I love the nsx but it was a motorsport failure....went to le mans five years. And barely won one class win......Two or three years it had reliability issues and didnt finish the race.......it was better honda didn't make the engine..........
Miguel Garcia The reason they won't do it because Japan was in the bubble era economy and when it burst it makes manufacturer trimmed down costs and for that reason Honda politely refused the request. Beside Honda NSX has excellent record in national and Asian level series. Their Le Mans effort was spearheaded by all Japanese team, they are not used to Le Mans and had language barrier. Beside Honda engine powered McLaren F1 in the past with a success that Modern Mercedes hasn't yet achieved.
I remember working at Dunsfold Aerodrome, where they shoot Top Gear. Lot of automotive companies use that track as well. But the best day was definitly when I saw McLaren 720S right in front of the office. At that time, it didn't had any badges and it was in black-white-blue camouflage livery to hide details, but you only needed one second to know - it must be new McLaren. Absolutely BLISTERING machine.
As a 13-16yo I used to bike past the Pop . McLaren garage in Meadowbank Auckland NZ, on my way to school. Often stopped to have a look at the cars in their workshop. Friendly bunch
*one of the oldest surviving films in existence* *roblox death sound* This is the moment both the film industry and the video game industry were leading up to
McLaren Automotive is a UK company. All McLaren's operations are based in Woking, England. Bruce McLaren was based in the UK as well. He and (1964 F1 World Champion) Denny Hulme won Driver To Europe scholarships from NZ motor racing clubs to fund their opportunity. Fellow kiwi Chris Amon joined them later and ended up racing for Ferrari in F1. Amon and McLaren won Le Mans together in a Ford GT40.
Actually McLaren F1 was NEVER intended to go racing, even Gordon Murray at first rejected it. But handful of well heeled customer persuade Ron Dennis to create GT1 version in fledging BPR Global Series (That would become FIA GT1).
If they did it accurately it would be good! You can not do a Pagani up to speed with out mentioning there god awful reliability and the fact they are the slowest cars in their class.
As a kid in early 2000's I was mesmerized by the F1 and felt sad that the such a badass name was not present on the roads anymore, I am very happy that McLaren is alive and well again
He's a bonafide Kiwi legend down here. every Kiwi knows this guy, he's a household name. Way ahead of his time too. Never content to copy what everyone else was doing, he was always looking to the future. RIP. Wonder what kind of crazy builds he'd come up with today?
When McLaren need the gold foil they turn to NASA who is happily provide them extra from their space shuttle program, reportedly they bought so many that the leftover gold foil is still in MSO hands for future parts incase they need replacement.
The McLaren logo used to be a kiwi. The new McLaren badge is still a kiwi, just heavily stylized. McLaren headlights are kiwis. You will never unsee that.
I love this video! Finally you came up with some screaming energy lacking in other videos I've seen (Lamborghini, RX-7, Nissan Z) lol. McLaren F1, favorite car of all time!
It mirrored there NSX rear mid engine layout, and aspirations. Polly at the time, Honda was going against the grain making an affordable sports car (exotic?), what would people say if they help design one of the most expensive exotic sports cars.
At the time Honda engine McLaren team dominated F1 racing. It was a natural fit to team up with Honda for the street car. Unfortunately Honda management declined, it would be epic if Honda supplied a 6 liter VTEC V12 Formula One based engine for the legendary F1.
Ronnie Dai indeed, its a goddamn shame the did not mention the Honda elements here. Gordon Murray even used the NSX as a fucking benchmark for the handling. Fuck that Ferrari and all other European 'established' sportscar manufacturers, I'd say!

Oh no, more like the 6:40s. Modern sub 30k street cars with performance packs have similar grip to the Mc Laren. 90s tires are shit.
McLaren f1s topspeed is higher than 240mph
add a 7th gear and it could probably goes faster than 240.
You mean a 6th Gear, the F1 only had 5 gears.
You're forgetting modern safety requirements. In 93 you could get away with a lot that now would add tons of bulk and weight if you tried to build one today.
I just realized that the headlights on the P1 look like the McLaren logo. How did I not notice this earlier
They're specifically designed for that, same as most modern McLarens like the 650s line and the 570 line
Many didn't notice it
A bit sad that they discarded this idea with the new cars, but if you look closely at the new GT's headlights you can see a little swing beneath them imitating the "Speedmark" called logo.
THAT took me some time haha!
It took me a while to realise how happy the P1 looks ☺️
