8 years later and this is still the definitive car video. Capturing the moment the motoring world took a step forward, the level of accessible geekery, the pure joy and the utterly sublime camera work. Amazing work. Great car btw!
This video isn't just a testament to the McLaren P1, it is also a testament to Chris Harris' driving prowess. He is this generation's Tiff Needell. An unassuming, charming and very affable person who can get in any car and immediately drive it to it's limit and beyond. A person who's skills are coveted by many, and who entertains us mere mortals immensely.
No way, Chris is good but no Timothy Needell. Tiff is also good at teaching, Chris isn’t. Chris never drove F1. Tiff did, shortly but he did. Driving F1, especially in those days take a special kind of driver. Tiff can do the greatest drifts and still talk and teach you how to also do it! Chris is still focussing on keeping the drift. Don’t get me wrong, a huge fan of Chris here but again, no Timothy Needell.
One of the things I really like about Chris Harris is that he asks smart questions and then actually LISTENS, thoughtfully, to the answers, and then asks more relevant questions. Great to watch if you're interested in cars. Actually interested in cars rather than just watching hot videos. (which I also love)
Chris Harris is the best thing that's happened to automotive journalism/media since Top Gear. Awesome driver, great reviews, really good attitude. The future is bright!
Chris Harris is a car journalist legend. Never forget, so many top gear fans were hating on him when he joined, those fools had no idea he had more car knowledge and passion than all former top gear host combined
Oh my gooood, I've been waiting for the end of 2014 video since some time before Chrimbo, the selection of cars you've gathered for this is astonishing! Oh and thank god it's a long video! I thank Neil, too. ;-) Can't wait any longer...
Best of luck Chris, I've started to donate, and have promoted the donation page as well. Please, please keep doing your thing. Good, quality content, weekly possibly? I donated more per month than the Drive + cost was simply because I love how technical you get - no other automotive journalist asks the questions, or gives the insight into technology and set-up's for both road and track cars like you do…I love TG, but CHOC has potential to dominate the YT world if you keep it up. If that schmuck Schmee150(no offense, great bloke) can get a few hundred thousand subs, CHOC sure as hell can too! Best of luck, regards, -From across the pond
@@SuicidalLemonade Why fredos of all things? Why not a 991.2 GT3 Touring, and a Demon with $800,000 worth of tires. All the same though, P1 is probably the best looking of the Trinity,
@@hardingfamily9057 I like fredos. also i'm not a huge fan of 2 seat 911s and have no interest in american muscle. but the tires thing is a good shout, maybe swap a million of those fredos for tires, fuel, mot etc.
watching again because chris hasn't said anything about the 918 since he compared it to the p1 in this video. The 918 has 12 track records now, more than any production car in history.
Who cares about your opinion.... the 918 is absolutely gorgeous and is the most unique hyper car ever built. Anyways, I was talking about performance in my original comment, to date, the 918 has 14 track record around the world while the P1 only has 4......
+Bruce R. You have to watch Chris LaFerrari video again. He states near the end at around 11:40 of P1 and LaFerrari in a class of 2. It seems after those comments he hasn't compared or mentioned 918 to the rwd hybrids in recent videos.
This is exactly how a car should be reviewed/tested/talked about. The amount of technicalities you show and make us understand is beyond Top Gear or Fifth gear or anything else out there, hands down you're the top notch guy who knows what he's doing. Thank you so much, more power to you.
I had to laugh at Chris' comment, "You can just throw it around...." Chris YOU can "...just throw it around!" Nearly anyone else might possibly achieve one "Throw" and then experience the most cataclysmic cloud of rocks and dust and smoking feces. There are really few individuals that don't hold a valid FIA Super license that could ever get nearly that much out of this phenomenal car. Thanks Chris, for taking us on a ride that allows the average petrol-head to live vicariously through your evening in Dubai... in that cute little black car!!!!!!! ;^)
This is by far the most important and emotional video in car world history! Chris Harris throwing this thing around like a toy is a joy to see and just an historic Videofilm. thank you for that monument of video👌🏻
Because kids (the majority of youtube viewers) would rather watch some nonsense second gen' rich kids who know nothing and squeal when they give it a little gas.
The passion and just coolness this engineer has is brilliant. Sorry don't know his name. Esp loved the "Do what you like" he gave you. Imagine the uptight people at Ferrari being this cool and self assured.
To put into perspective how McLaren and Ferrari looks at things this is an example. McLaren's Boss Ron Dennis said this in an interview when Ayrton Senna joined Alain Prost in their F1 Team - "We are confident that we have the two best drivers in the world, the two most professional drivers in the world as well. And if we are not consistently in the winning circle, then we certainly cannot put the blame on the drivers." Which means he is ready to accept that the car is not good if the results say so. But when Prost switched to Ferrari a few years later and he criticized that the car was not fast enough he was simply fired from the team.
That was indeed a good moment, as you see Chris transform into Giddy Chris, like Jim Carrey does in Me Myself and Irene as he goes into Hank mode. Effin great!
Mr Harris, I continue to come back to this video every time someone asks me what my dream car would be... No rules, no money just that car... I will always come back to this film with you spanking a P1, backing it in to the corner and giving the viewer's a strange yet excited expression! It's still a whole new thing!
Yeah i don;t adblock UA-cam for that reason, i want these guys to do ok out of iut and be able to continue to make more content. Good comment, more people should leave the adblock off i think
I love the Mclaren from the mind blowing Mclaren F1. Which got me into the super car. I love every car they make, I was lucky i got to sit in a P1 at a super car weekend and i every little part that is needed to make the P1 be what it is . Perfect. F1 Mclaren. i salute you.
Such a treat Chris! I have now watched this one in its entirety 7 times. I could have watched hours of this. I hope your vids are all at least 25-30 mins if at all possible in the future. What a day for you as a car nut and we got to experience it through you so thanks again and here's to future vids!
What a car.... Very cool. I must also say Chris, I think you are the best automotive journalist out there today!! Respect the way how you inform on what it is all about..technology and design, in combination with showing your love for cars!
i'd be really pleased as huge koenigsegg fan if he tested all koenigsegg models out there, in order of production, like CC8S, CCR, CCX, Agera... just an idea ;)
Paulo Sousa A new Inside: Koenigsegg series but this time with Chris Harris driving one model each episode and showing how the brand evolved over time, sign me up for that! Also that would mean more screen time with Mr.Koenigsegg, my favorite alien living in disguise as a human. :3
Roshan Torcy well funny you say that, its now September 2020 and Mr JWW (another car youtuber) is doing the exact thing with Koenigsegg, obviously not the driver Chris Harris is but it will be an interesting series nonetheless.
Awesome Critique Chris. You Can Feel Your Enthusiasm Grow & Grow As You Realize The Nuance, the Features That You Didn't Even Know Were There, Until Bang...They Surprise You, Again and Again. And We Can Actually See You, Realizing That This Car is Truly a SuperCar. A Hyper Hybrid. Thank You so Much for Sharing.
I find it quite amusing that McLaren, the brand most associated with being anal and sensible out of the big three, goes ahead and produces the car which has the most drama and theater in its blood, looks and driving dynamics. Don't get me wrong, I love all three of the hyper hybrids but the McLaren seems to have the more "hyper" character, Porsche with its "sensible form follows function" touch and Ferrari with its "elegant" take on the same concept. Three marvelous machines built around the same principle but couldn't be any more radically different from each other. Massive respect to all the people that are responsible for bringing these things to life. ^-^
Whatever if its repeated.. it's great! I've seen it before and i watched again (without adblocker ;)) Keep doing it Chris! Never mind this small thinking/criticizing dudes that don't understand a thing. One of the best car journalists... in the world.
Great video, Chris. I love watching you guys 'geek out' over the specifics. And if this car is a window into the motoring future... the future is very bright indeed.
One important factor about this car is that it displays with glamorous, compelling persuasiveness, that electric and hybrid modes of propulsion are much higher performing and nicer driving than gas powered cars. And the aura the Mclaren creates about electrical technology, mistrusted and disliked by the larger consuming public, will change peoples minds and purchasing choices. With climate change and the degeneration of the environment, and geo political problems with oil on all levels, the sooner electric and hybrid cars take over the market, the better. So the Mclaren has symbolic value for the world, as well as sheer fascination and performance. Thanks for the great show Chris.
Chris reaction on the first full throttle acceleration say it all. I could watch this video 1000 times and still I'd have my eyes and mouth wide open. Astonishing. Thanks, mate. Really.
I’ve watched this shit-loads of times!!! Boy Does this car look on another-level, And there about to release there fastest ever McLaren??. What a time to be alive!!
Chris, thanks for doing this thing you're doing -- posting fantastic videos for virtually zero remuneration. I'm sure I speak for most of your viewers when I say that you are, quite simply, my favourite auto journalist. I hope a way can be found for you to extract some revenue from these (without sacrificing view count) so that we can continue to glean vicarious pleasure through your automotive exploits.
Great video, watched it several times, that sheer joy on your face on the track laps gave me goosebumps the first time I watched...still makes me smile now....what an absolutely incredible piece of genius and beautiful engineering.
***** Chris did mention wanting to move select content over onto this channel, but also did promise a lot of new stuff, some of which we've seen on here already (despite your only "old repeated videos from drive" claim). Chill out...it's early days.
Chris Harris on Cars Thank you for "posting old repeated videos". I've seen this one before when it was released on DRIVE. And still, I watched it a second time right now cause it is such a fascinating car and an epic video!!!
Bestwick1983 Tbh i was STARTING to think the same thing as vaxbuster here,althou in a slightly....less offencive(?) maner. I signed up to pay and old stuff from drive (and even drivers republic) was all i got. But i`m sure what`s coming tomorrow and in the future will more than make up for it. I`m not like vaxbuster tho. He looks WELL hard!
Hate to be "that guy" who brings up Top Gear, but I just watched their new episode and the Stig's body shape (his shoulders and chest especially), movements, demeanor, and driving style reminded me a lot of you Chris. Not saying you are for sure the Stig, but I'm onto you.
Don't know how many times I've watched this video on the drive channel, and when it popped up this evening I couldn't resist. This is one of my favourite videos on you tube nevermind just in the motoring category.❤️❤️❤️❤️
Watched this a few times a few months back...just watched it again because it's an awesome video of a awesome car and the in depth descriptions are spot on! But now we need...dare I say it, a whole new thing? Top marks Chris!
I both LOVE watching the excitement on the face of someone about to drive one of the most incredible cars in history, and HATE the fact that it isn’t me.
Ah yes mr harris, thank you for posting this. Last night I noticed it had gone from the drive channel and until now I was doubting the future of the car universe without your p1 video
Chris can u do a follow up video, now that you have driven all 3 hypercars, comparing them? Doesn't have to be something with new footage. Just voice over clips of your previous reviews. But now comparing them all.
After 7 tears this is still holds the most iconic car shoot for me.
I just about cry when I realize it’s seven years after this was shot, I simply can’t believe it.
Came back 7 years later, glad I did.
Same, i think ive watched that last segment 7 times
This and the F40 + F50 vid are so much fun to come back to.
I don't know, when he got the Holy Trinity together at Portomo..... I do wish he still made the videos with Neil every week
Nearly a decade later and i still come back to this video regularly. This is just pure art.
8 years later and this is still the definitive car video. Capturing the moment the motoring world took a step forward, the level of accessible geekery, the pure joy and the utterly sublime camera work. Amazing work. Great car btw!

Love coming back to this vid. Real ones know Chris hasn’t been this excited driving a car since. Period. Epic emotion and sincere excitement.
I love this car in asphalt 9..
It's crazy..
Same! Miss Chris doing this stuff. Apart from the TopGear adventures it all feels a little meaningless
Ikr!? This car just ruins every other automotive experience for most people.
7 years later. Still the best car video on UA-cam. And the best car of the 21st century for me
Best "lone wolf" presenter on the planet.
I agree with you completely! My favorite car review guy and one hell of a driver!!!
Lol then Top Gear happened.
For 👍...the way he explains things is soothing
Aside for Clarkson imo
@@lovetolift82 this 👌 watched him in that 80’s-90’s garage doing the tour. Mouthwatering viewing 🤤
The McLaren engineer’s eyes tells how much he cared and worked on this beast.. Thanks for sharing this 👍🏻
Chris Harris is the best thing that's happened to automotive journalism/media since Top Gear. Awesome driver, great reviews, really good attitude. The future is bright!
I still would bet my money on Jason Cammisa about automotive journalism. Even though he's too much a purist sometimes.

Hate to be "that guy" who brings up Top Gear, but I just watched their new episode and the Stig's body shape (his shoulders and chest especially), movements, demeanor, and driving style reminded me a lot of you Chris. Not saying you are for sure the Stig, but I'm onto you.
I am so very glad that you are posting video's again, I will watching now and in the future. Keep them coming...!!!
I can watch this again and again..Chris I need a XXL poster with you drifting in this..its just art !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Don't know how many times I've watched this video on the drive channel, and when it popped up this evening I couldn't resist. This is one of my favourite videos on you tube nevermind just in the motoring category.❤️❤️❤️❤️
Anyone else just come to rewatch after the VinWiki/Shmee video?
Aye
Yessir.
Yezzirrr
No. Shmee is shit
@@jack14kd THANK you. I don't get that downs syndrome big tooth's popularity
Greatest Auto Review OF ALL TIME. This is not a debate.
Don't mind me just coming back to remind myself of the good old days.
Hi Guys, 7 years and this is still the dog.
Cracking production too, Chris at his best.
Refresh my memory... is this a whole new thing? I can't remember if Chris said that in the video or not. I think it might be a whole new thing.
I've never wanted a super car. But I love watching Chris drive and review them. Well done indeed !
I’m here rewatching after the Chris Goodwin podcast 😕
Clique53 that’s why I came back!
What did Chris goodwin says??
Watched this a few times a few months back...just watched it again because it's an awesome video of a awesome car and the in depth descriptions are spot on! But now we need...dare I say it, a whole new thing? Top marks Chris!
You can do what you like .......
Legend
Still the greatest all time piece of automotive journalism.
For me! This is the greatest car ever built!
By far the best motoring journalist on the planet.
23:00 Yep, that's a megayacht you see in the background.
I both LOVE watching the excitement on the face of someone about to drive one of the most incredible cars in history, and HATE the fact that it isn’t me.
Love this machine! By the way, does anyone know the music playing when Chris is on the track...?

This is my favourite car review. Ever. I've watched this at least 10 times.
Did you come back here after watching winwiki?
yessir
Yep!
My all time fav Harris vid why not watch it for the 6th time :)
Just had to come and watch it again! Failed to hear the track officials shouting lol!
Yeap
One of the best car videos of all time!
What's the piano song/ sound @ 19:25
Alben Santillan it’s called light speed by peter mcisaac
Back here after reading the book! What a classic!
Im just going to go ahead and assume that its a hole new thing
Ah yes mr harris, thank you for posting this. Last night I noticed it had gone from the drive channel and until now I was doubting the future of the car universe without your p1 video
Chris can u do a follow up video, now that you have driven all 3 hypercars, comparing them? Doesn't have to be something with new footage. Just voice over clips of your previous reviews. But now comparing them all.
I have never thought about seeing a worthy successor to the F1...but this thing is insssssssssaaaaaaaaaannnnneeeee....
