[@JUSTM1KAL]

[@ryantrinh6067]

Incredible driving Alexander. I would love to see a POV of that, but unfortunately not. Anyways, awesome video and awesome driving Gave a like for this video and slammed the subscribe button:D

[@charlieguzman5509]

Damn that sounds good

[@p.5275]

nice control

[@TheMtvdeath]

On the scale from 1 to 10 - insanity!!!

[@richzilla08]

Gosh, you're an incredible driver. Probably one of the best if not the best on KZbin. Lovely video, you should get in a 675LT run it through its paces however :)

[@AlexanderWest]

I will ;)

[@Protein_isgood]

I wish i could see the speedometers, too.

[@loicmartel656]

God damnit those shifting noise are AMAZINGGGG

[@juliusstockler3073]

Thanks for sharing your experience with us! Do you come to the Hockenheimring in September for the Ferrari Racing days? And will you bring you FXXK or your 599xx Evo? Would be a pleasure to see you driving your beasts!

[@AlexanderWest]

+Julius Stöckler i'm racing in GT3 at Red Bull Ring that weekend so no

[@srinitaaigaura]

Wow, that was a 1:17 something and that was fast enough that I was leaning into those corners from my chair and getting dizzy. That front end turns in like it just seems to obey your mind rather than the laws of physics. I can't imagine how it would be when it did a 1:14 in the hands of De Simone. It looks like you shifted into 6th at the end of the straight so it must have hit 270+ kmph

[@AlexanderWest]

1:15.8 if i remember it correctly. yeah definitely another second to shave off, but it was my first time driving the car

[@M-28xD]

what r they doing? flight checklist or something?

[@2jzandys444]

K9-1000 should be the same procedure since it is a fighter jet

[@ilketama5982]

some straights i thought you are not gonna stop but it stops so quickly and so fast in corners ... and straightline

[@srinitaaigaura]

Especially that last turn, I have no idea how it stopped and turned in like that, seems to do whatever your mind wants.

[@patrickspires1989]

Will you be at Finali Mondiali

[@AlexanderWest]

no

[@srinitaaigaura]

How does the HY-KERS behave in the 4 modes?

[@AlexanderWest]

Qualifying - aggressively using the battery, so you have the full 1,050bhp, but really only lasts a lap or two before either empty or batteries get too hot, Long Run - steady state power delivery that will last forever... I would say 1-2s per lap slower than in Qualifying mode. Manual, allows you to get the full power when you press the K button on the steering wheel. Never used, more of a gimmick if you ask me. Fast Charge - charges the battery quickly. so typical session is outlap in FC, then 1-2 Q laps, then one FC lap to charge and cool down, the 1-2 Q laps, and so on, and then FC on the inlap

[@srinitaaigaura]

How similar or different is it to a P1 GTR in the way it handles?

[@vincer9960]

Why not have the car always be automatically using "Fast Charge" when not using the power? Can you explain why it's literally a separate mode rather than the car always "fast charging" when the power isn't needed? Or maybe does fast charge just mean the electric motors are fully disabled (even if you're full throttle).

[@AlexanderWest]

fast charge, pretty much cuts out all the electrics. my guess is that a quali lap is 1-2 secs faster than a Long Run lap, that in turn is 2-3 secs faster than a fast charge lap

[@vincentberetta8489]

I really don't understand why you just have 450 subscribers :/

[@AlexanderWest]

+Vincent Béretta thanks for saying that, but i'm not doing this to get subscribers...

[@vincentberetta8489]

+Alexander West for sure, but you give us one of the best content in term of track cars, it's amazing. Thanks a lot for sharing, continue ;) Why not vlogging ? Could be interesting to see the organisation of the different Ferrari events !

[@doctornick999]

You can hear why a lot of people say they prefer the ferraris over the mclarens, although I'd be interested to know what a decent driver thinks of how this measures up against the P1GTR as a real racers car

[@AlexanderWest]

Well neither is a race car and a GT3 is faster than both

[@doctornick999]

+Alexander West I appreciate that, what I meant was as they are both track focused I wonder how they squared up against each other, given you have had track time in some obviously quicker machinery and no how to drive them to their potential

[@AlexanderWest]

+Fish both very quick, and would have to drive both at the same track same day to say😂

[@yurixruz]

Who are you?

[@AlexanderWest]

?

[@yurixruz]

Alexander West Do you own all those cars??

[@AlexanderWest]

+yurixruz what do you think? and does it matter?

[@yurixruz]

Alexander West I don't know, I'm curious.

[@AlexanderWest]

well either i'm a journalist, or i have friends with cool cars or...

[@Alexander-hk5ke]

Could be faster;)
