They do, its called the 720s.

I heard from a McLaren employee that there is a new P1 coming out this year. I hope its not roumors.

I'm sure there are many P1 owners that see the antiquated hybrid system as a liability rather than an asset, especially when you take into account the costs of replacements and recurring problems many owners have experienced, which is why the likes of V engineering are developing enhanced solutions.

Taking the case of the Valkyrie AMR Pro vs the standard car, it's quite telling that they ditched the hybrid system when the aim was all-out performance, even with today's hybrid tech that has come along leaps and bounds from 2010

Anyone follow socials and knows what’s going on with content? I’m surprised Freddie dropped a lot of content in a short space of time and then tumbleweed for the past 2 months

lol ok he posted that an hour ago on his second channel. Cheers for the heads up

[C5_Steve]

He's posted a few on his second channel as they're not that interesting (he says) as it's just detailing what will go into the wiring work etc.

I kind of agree based on his usual content but I've watched a few of Rob Dahm's videos where he does covering the wiring he does for stuff and I find it fascinating. But I appreciate Rob's content is very different to Freddie's so it probably wouldn't be right for his audience.

Seems to take more time and effort then expected. But more youtube precense also helps to pay the bills.

Will be a rocket when ready…

[PAUL.S.]

Rehash of old stuff already seen, I imagine the car is currently way ahead of what was posted, he seems to have taken his foot off the gas with regular content these days, taking it easy I guess after the stress of getting to this level.

This would have been better split into three episodes. I appreciate that the loom is a big job but I'm getting a bit bored of that bit.

There's only so much interest a wiring loom can generate to hold people's attention. As much as I'm not a fan of everything Mat Armstrong does, at least he's a good example of how to employ the right pacing in video content and how to keep projects going

[MclaesLaren]

It will be a new P1 supercar this year. Internally named P18.

Price without options 2M€. It will probably drag away interest from the P1.

Release, date is during Q3.

I tried looking for an update through the second channel content but can does anyone know what stage the rebuilds at now. Main channel hasn’t been updated since April

According to his Instagram, he has a big update/announcement coming in August. He's been in the UK for quite a while recently.

Seems to be delayed. I guess costs has impacted the speed of the P1.
Or he has lost his Mojo for getting the car ready …

It's a pain waiting for parts for a normal car so I can imagine the lead times are ridiculous for something like a P1 plus the bodyshop will no doubt want it for a minimum of 4 months.

Might time quite well actually. We've seen what McLaren have offered with the P1 replacement and it looks pretty underwhelming TBH.

Open goal for Tavarish.

Yeah he posted he'd be quite keen to put his version up against the new one when it's done. Might be a while before that happens though of course.

Major attention is on the W1, so I guess interest has slowed down on the P1.

But 2nd hand price on P1 are still as before the W1 was introduced.
