Supercars do not get any quicker than the Ferrari SF90 Stradale and McLaren 765LT and this video perfectly demonstrates the performance differences between them.
Professional racing driver Daniel Abt headed to a runway with a black 765LT and a red SF90 Stradale and arranged three races between the pair.

On paper, it shouldn’t really be much of a competition. Powering the Ferrari SF90 Stradale is a 4.0-liter turbocharged V8 supplemented by three electric motors and producing a combined 986 hp. By comparison, the 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 of the McLaren 765LT delivers ‘only’ 755 hp, although dyno tests suggest that figure is very conservative. The Ferrari also has the advantage of being all-wheel drive while the McLaren sends all of its grunt to the rear wheels.
In the first race, Abt was behind the wheel of the Ferrari but botched the launch. This allowed the McLaren to comfortably win, hitting 62 mph (100 km/h) in 3.56 seconds and completing the quarter-mile in 10.63 seconds, compared to the 4.0-second 0-62 mph time of the SF90 Stradale and its 10.83-second quarter-mile run.
Things went as expected in the second race. Abt nailed the launch with the Ferrari and easily outsprinted the McLaren, requiring just 2.8 seconds to hit 62 mph and running the quarter-mile in 9.95 seconds. The result of the third and final race is very similar, although the Ferrari went even faster, hitting 62 mph in a mere 2.48 seconds and completing the quarter-mile in 9.67 seconds.
