13.36 -> but this is not a super color should say
26.26 -> who miserable v8 or puny little
29.01 -> turbochargers that is Ferraris greatest
32.47 -> hit
36.09 -> 12 cylinders properly arranged innovate
39.72 -> both though Grazia
48.98 -> and then there's the price my Ferrari
52.01 -> has the other two licked there as well
55.75 -> four to 918 646 thousand pounds McLaren
60.85 -> p1 866 thousand and there's more think
76.48 -> your perkier be a great pains to explain
78.91 -> just how clever the McLaren and the
81.37 -> Porsche are well this is also very
85.84 -> clever it's built from not one but four
93.34 -> different types of carbon fibre to keep
96.4 -> it as light as possible
98.08 -> in fact it's lighter than the Porsche or
100.869 -> the McLaren the driver's seat is fixed
104.71 -> and instead it's the wheel and pedals
106.99 -> that movie this means you don't need a
109.84 -> seat beckon ISM which means the driver
112.03 -> can sit lower the roof can be lower and
115.06 -> that drops the center of gravity to the
119.5 -> benefit of cornering then we come to the
123.64 -> engine
126.64 -> like the McLaren and the Porsche laughs
129.55 -> arari is a hybrid it has a petrol engine
132.34 -> and an electric motor to drive the
134.8 -> wheels but whereas the other two can be
137.59 -> driven on electric power alone like a
139.93 -> Toyota Prius the Ferrari card because
142.6 -> Ferrari say we are not interested in
145.33 -> electric cars instead the battery and
150.07 -> electric motor combination works a bit
152.44 -> like the kinetic energy recovery system
154.81 -> in an f1 car in very simple terms it
157.93 -> captures energy that's normally wasted
160.09 -> during braking for example and keeps it
163 -> for when you need it
172.94 -> the electric motor the petrol engine
175.44 -> they're all working together all of the
177.9 -> time you cannot separate
181.47 -> this is singly at 950 horsepower
185.67 -> supercar
189.85 -> but despite the racing technology you
193.19 -> don't find yourself in a world of
195.02 -> austere track car misery you've got the
200.66 -> sat-nav the air conditioning it's
203.69 -> perfectly comfortable actually it's very
207.95 -> civilized however this is also supposed
214.91 -> to be the fastest and most exciting Road
217.82 -> car Ferrari has ever made and to find
221.3 -> out how exciting we must come here
225.4 -> Ferraris Fiorano test track
229.74 -> to Prancing Horse fans this is the
231.99 -> sacred tarmac where the company's
234.18 -> greatest f1 cars were born but when I
239.01 -> rolled up sacred wasn't the word that
241.62 -> came to mind Oh after two hours of
252.69 -> dithering on the start line a little bit
256.65 -> further away now that's too far away
260.22 -> hang on
261.889 -> the track was finally dry enough for me
264.74 -> to have a go red red red
281.959 -> the trousers
295.889 -> lots of race
301.61 -> ladies gentlemen is for you but it's not
320.52 -> just the amount of horsepower that's
322.38 -> impressive
323.19 -> it's the way it's served up Ferrari has
344.79 -> remembered that not everyone will drive
346.5 -> this car will be called Sebastian or
348.69 -> Mattel
353.86 -> because laferrari will go quite a lot
356.689 -> faster than you can think Ferrari do
358.849 -> quite a lot of thinking for you it has
360.74 -> for example a very very sophisticated
362.229 -> traction control system based on Formula
365.27 -> one tech and you can leave it turned on
367.819 -> why not
369.379 -> stops you crashing laferrari also
373.849 -> bristles with active aerodynamics now
377.12 -> that's not new on a supercar that this
379.159 -> system is controlled by 21 computers
382.419 -> which means according to the ferrari
384.86 -> eggheads even i should be able to take
387.65 -> furanose notorious turn seven flat-out
410.01 -> the costea gave the veteran words
414.409 -> like Jennifer's McLaren is pure
418.049 -> rear-wheel drive and that's quite
419.939 -> intimidating but it's not a Widowmaker
438.59 -> sorry Lannister's slow this down a bit
443.78 -> Richard Hammond he says the Porsche 918
446.46 -> that's the one that takes the hybrid
448.979 -> supercar the furthest it's the most
450.84 -> responsible if you like Jeremy likes the
453.389 -> p1 because he says it takes an idea that
455.729 -> was essentially an environmental one and
457.71 -> uses it to make the supercar more
459.93 -> dramatic in this respect the Ferrari is
464.819 -> more like the McLaren
468.43 -> except for two things
471.01 -> laferrari looks better I reckon it is
474.91 -> better
477.3 -> this is the greatest car in the world
488.65 -> you
