2018 McLaren 720S onboard lap at Nürburgring Nordschleife

[@MagicSkeleton]

Bloody hell! That was one of the best laps of the Ring I've seen. I'm sure I would have spewed. Can't wait for the LT version.

[@macfady2181]

Watch a GT2 RS MR lap.

[@alexdean3794]

ahh the satisfaction of watching someone drive a 720s like its a fiesta 😎

[@FrancescoThorNelsonMerlini]

Love it! I’m the Gtr Nismo driver, i was following you during one lap! Great driving :)

[@largus]

Great driving too Francesco, I hope that we will meet again ;)

[@lefuedebout]

Do you have a video of that? If so, please supply link here. Thanks. :-)

[@GiGi-wg9lq]

The 720S is so effortlessly fast.

[@CoreQ]

S because it’s designed right

[@RandomReviews2014]

This is some mind-blowingly good driving. Reminds me of the lap footage from the 911 RUF Yellowbird pilot! Outstanding

[@aaronedwards9218]

He’s pushing the tyres to the very limit in most corners and is inducing a lot of turn in oversteer and generating a nice slip angle for exit and for 90% of the other corners he’s just having fun and sliding the car. Superb car control and balls harder than steel.

[@michelboucard2235]

Clignotant à droite et tu laisses passer le missile....!😊 Du grand pilotage . Impressionnant !

[@suricateenerve165]

On sent bien qu'à la fin les pneus sont en surchauffe complète vu comme ça part, tu te fais plaisir la ahah, t'es surement le seul pilote de journal auto qui la fou en pression comme ça sur piste ! bravo !

[@karoma7898]

How can a machine with so much power be this controlable, a road car no less! Respect, for McLaren and the driver

[@macfady2181]

The driver has a lot to do with it, he looks to be fighting the car the whole time.

[@KOC6H2NO23]

Actually he explained in the article (www.largus.fr/actualite-automobile/essai-extreme-la-mclaren-720s-en-test-au-nurburgring-9344390.html) that he whishes he had better tyres to take benefit of all what this car could provide. The original Pirelli are not the best for the ring and he would have driven much faster with better tyres.

[@cedricferrer7902]

Qu'elle maîtrise, y a rien a dire sur cette performance !!! Être passager c'est chaud là ♨️🔥

[@s31ACE1252]

When he went through the first three corners....I was like man that thing looks loose, but I didn't read the description until other comments mentioned he was in drift mode. Man it shows.

[@lsvlestudiovaillant5223]

Incroyable 😍👍👌 la maîtrise 😱

Huge balls man, huge balls !!! Very nice drive and awesome drifting!!! 👏👏👏

[@Dokepredator]

It's clearly that he is hitting the throttle that hard and early to produce some powerslides, really good driver and fun to watch.

[@chrismunsey3185]

Dudes a driver for sure and McLaren know how to build a car. What a machine.👌🏽

[@ryanroberts1738]

so many ppl commenting on his over sliding - any of you smarties thought that he's doing it on purpose to have fun? xD

[@JonasRosenven]

It's mind numbing how so many people can't tell that he is inducing oversteer on purpose.

[@JifeLacket]

It's called pushing it, to be fast you need to find that fine line of traction/losing traction ... people are silly. Of course sliding alllll the time isn't as efficient but once and a while is normal, especially on a hot lap.

[@carscoffeeandcannabis-634]

I'm not conviced he was intentionally inducing oversteer, but he was definitely experimenting with finding the limit, and riding it with authority lol

[@flffygc8609]

@@JifeLacket this isn't him finding the limit lol, this is the 720s Drift mode, which diverts more then necessary power to the rear

[@joelh3030]

Jason Jayawardena No, hes definitely finding the limit to the cornering of the car and grip of the wheels

[@nottodaybuddy370]

Anyone that has actually done significant track time will understand the pure unbridled joy of neutrally drifting through a corner with just throttle manipulation alone. Then taking it beyond that point, to a point of excess and not losing control ... oh boy oh boy oh boy! I'm envious of the driver, as that most of been such an enjoyable lap :)

[@doubleu_t_f434]

Glad you gave it some of the McLaren Variable Drift Control fun!!!Without it this car is griping so much more

[@jaycon1186]

Handles like a super fast go kart, love to drive one of these. Great lap looks like a pure adrenaline rush!

Good job very nice use of the tires . You ran them just to their limit not too over . Driver here.

[@alejmc]

Amazing, this car is a rocket. The shifting is so lightning fast :O I got drained and tired by watching all the micro-steering happening, can’t imagine how it must be actually driving it.

[@GT4-CS]

Nice drifts and very good handling 👍🚗👍

[@niknelos3842]

Pouuahh grande classe.. Magnifique pilotage. Bravo 👏

[@derekrunyan983]

With or without TC ? Power over steer pass at 2:05 looked fun I could tell it was purposeful lined the turn well 😎😉

[@kazn10]

I think the tires got too hot near the end. At the beginning you had more grip and to the end the car was sliding everytime. Nice driving 👍

[@martyndyson9501]

It's called variable drift control, not only that the hotter the tires the better the grip! Why do you think they are constantly trying to warm there tired in motorsport?! Think before you comment!!

[@kazn10]

@@martyndyson9501 the optimum tire temperature is between 75°C and 90°C. A higher temperature than 100°C and up will decrease the grip rapidly.

[@itshappening100]

true, the car was all over the place

[@kubica811]

Martyn Dyson There is an optimum operating temperature window for the tires, it doesnt mean that the hotter the tyre is the better grip it has. You made fool out of yourself

[@Rizziculous]

Martyn Dyson “Think before you comment!!” Lol you’re a big dumb dumb

[@kubica811]

The „Variable Drift Control” in this car is not a „drift mode” that you all guys know. It is just a system that allows car to oversteer more before the ESC intervene. The guy in the video just pushes the car, trying to find the limit that is why he the car oversteers sometimes he is not doing it for fun. And by the way, he has some great skills 👍🏻

[@Stig1244]

Pity about the heavy traffic but what kind of lap time was this guy doing? Great driving and didn’t even wear gloves... impressive 👍🏻

[@skyphab]

Awesome driving! One thing though: the steering looks quite soft/indirect. Is that just an impression from the video?

[@paouvous]

I guess that is what one can say "fully lit"! Nice Sir! Thank you!

[@gt4viking789]

L’argus is an extremely competent driver, but the car’s handling seems nervous and almost uncontrolled with the amount of steering input needed. Tons of understeer too 😳 ATB Peter

[@COWASOGGY]

Very good driving. Holy shit

[@joemuscat3113]

Amazing. Now that's how you drive the 720s.

[@DrPittenstein]

Nice chassis balance, I had no idea, no vloggers or journos have driven one properly yet. Rear tyres getting hot towards the end of the lap by the look of it.

[@MTLWAKEUP]

Car is sooo agile!!! Great driving too. 👍👍

[@franciscoaraujo9575]

O piloto domina a máquina e não o contrário! 👏👏👏👏👏

[@WestCoastSupercarsandClassics]

Pretty weird handling setup for this track. He's spending so much time dealing with the oversteer, the car seems very loose. The 'Ring isn't exactly a drift course...

[@Ralgog]

Mclarens gain their time on the straights, not the corners. Hence loose handling

[@rodrigodaux7439]

Maybe this guy just WANT to go sideways for fun? He definitely has the skill and the BALLS to do it on green hell.

[@jcabram9002]

Correct me if I’m wrong but I think he had his traction control set for more oversteer as you can see from the center screen. Hence the more unnecessary drifting. I bet he just wanted to have more fun.

[@kestrel3509]

@@Ralgog p1 has the fastest time in nurburgring

[@erax333]

[@LCTRgames]

Joy to watch someone driving committed in a 720S :) Surprised there is so much turn-in oversteer? Is that default handling or something you do for preference through tire pressures?

[@davedavidson9996]

Cool vid. That thing looks a little squirrelly at times.

[@seanburke955]

It might look loose at least he is actually DRIVING THE CAR . Which ever way you look at it the 720s is astonishing end of...

[@sv443]

first time I can t complain about gear shifting. spot on!

[@shshh-fw9eh]

He is driving like a pro, probably he is a pro, and knows the track inside out. One would never deliberately lift off the throttle on corner entry like that unless they were trying to kill themselves.

[@RearEntry]

a pleasure to watch!

the car isn't in sport mode ? normally on a 720S the dash flips if you put it in sport mode, or am i wrong ?

[@gregorykorvin]

Quel est le nom du pilote!?

[@nz540im3]

I know for a lot of the lap he’s playing. But when he’s trying the thing seems like a massive handful. A lot of see sawing on the wheel to keep it in line. Quite surprising.

[@nz540im3]

Forget that. I now see from the centre screen he has it set very loose. That setup configuration is such a cool idea.

[@bwest6275]

I thought if it’s put in track mode, the instrument cluster flips down? Meaning, track mode wasn’t enabled here?

It rotates nicely!
