  • Ride with Arrow McLaren SP's NTT IndyCar Series star Pato O'Ward as he turns his first two laps in a Formula 1 car, which also happens to be Mika Hakkinen's 1998 world championship-winning McLaren MP4-13A powered by a screaming 3.0-liter Mercedes-Benz V10.
    O'Ward's best lap, a 1m10.3s tour of the Velocity Invitational event at WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca, eclipsed his 1m11.2s lap from September where he qualified the No. 5 AMSP Chevy sixth on the grid for the penultimate IndyCar race of 2021.

      I agree. The lack of good sounding engines has made F1 lose some soul. The clip at the end sounds utterly amazing. Yes, modern F1 engines are powerful. Yes they are technically superior. That's really not the point of this comment though. Give me back the aural experience!

    I went to this event exclusively to hear this car, it definitely did not disappoint. The announcers mentioned that the crew working on the MP4-13 for the weekend was the same crew from 1998, and many of the instruments were the same as well. I like to imagine it was a bit of a Blues Brothers experience for McLaren to round up Mika and the lads for the event. Pato also said, after catching his breath from this session, that he was using his IndyCar reference/braking points, but said the car obviously felt like it had more to give. The car was hitting 165+ mph by the speed trap on the straight after turn 4.

    Hard to believe, but the current F1 cars only took the cct lap records bout a year ago, the V10's were very much the pinnacle of F1, and I imagine given new tyres (with the benefit of 20 years of tyre improvements), they would easily be capable of taking every lap record.
    On another note, how great would it be to see F1 at Laguna Seca? (and/or Watkins Glen!)

Its pretty remarkable how different and how much better Pato is on ovals and street courses, when he has walls around him, than when he just has to worry about going into the grass or gravel.

Critics: have you watched the typical F1 car laps that have been turned in these cars? The Ferrari Clientele or other uber rich privately owned cars barely see 50% of what they are capable of offering. Wonderful to see him stab the throttle out of turns. Given the amount of seat time, he'd shorten his braking points and there was tons of room left on turn ins. Just not enough seat time to trust the car has that much more downforce to lean on.

      It does have an original Mercedes motor, all of Zach’s cars are period-correct but of course the motors get rebuilt multiple times. None of the V10-era cars ever use the full rev range when run in historic events, just backing off 1k rpm at the redline can dramatically lengthen the life of the engine while still giving plenty of power. There are other historic F1 cars where the original motor has been replaced with a more modern Judd V10 when spares are hard to find, but that’s not the case here.
