Just UNFUCKENREAL !!!!! The amount of speed he carries into each corner is mind blowing. It had to be a HUGE adjustment, and take quite a few laps, for this driver to adjust his points of reference for braking and turning. I mean, no other car even comes remotely close to this lap time. It really does look like the tape is in "fast forward". As I former racer myself (Superbike & Supersport) I can't imagine how much fun it must be to have a vehicle with that much downforce that it literally "sticks" to the pavement unlike any other vehicle ever. I'm blown away watching this. Just incredible !!!!! Congratulations to Porsche.

better to redline it through that one straight than to risk losing valuable downforce for all the high speed turns of which there are many...
