Autocar’s Andrew Frankel was probably the first motoring journalist in the world to get behind the wheel of McLaren’s most outlandish model, the track-only P1 GTR.
As we’re talking about a very expensive, extremely powerful car, Frankel was given a long presentation by McLaren’s chief test driver Chris Goodwin before unleashing the beast on Qatar’s Losail International Circuit.
There are a lot of things to be aware of in the McLaren P1 GTR, as you will see in the video, but once you get it going it leaves you speechless.
At least that’s what happened to Frankel, who could only say “It’s fantastic” when he returned to the pits. Obviously, this is not your usual review, more like a trailer for it, which is why we suspect a proper one will follow.
