The McLaren P1: Extreme Testing (Ice Episode)

“Holy crap” the first two words uttered while watching this video. McLaren’s known to offer up epically shot video montages of their coveted P1, including its fabled and secretive run with the Nürburgring.

Here we have an official look at some of the extreme testing that McLaren’s engineers thought necessary to put the P1 through. The final result? An absolutely dizzying display of the camo-clad P1 doing mile long power slides, rubber freezing burnouts, and a terrifyingly fast runs across a frozen arctic tundra.

With a limited production run of just 375 cars and an under wraps rumor of the P1, smashing the Porsche 918 Spyder’s Nürburgring time, the P1 is (in my honest opinion), seriously shaping up to be one of the most epic production hypercars of all time.

Say what you will about its hybrid added heft and its flamboyant sheet metal, that invokes a gut crunching love it or hate it response from internet automotive experts. The P1 is performing heroically across the fragmented bits of exposure spreading across the web, and I absolutely can’t wait to see more.
