The 708kW LaFerrari is the latest in the triumverate of hybrid hypercars to attack the Nürburgring Nordschleife.
It joins the brief video we’ve seen of the McLaren P1, with a rumoured 7:04 lap time, and the apparently all-conquering Porsche 918 Spyder. Of course, the 918 grabbed headlines recently when Porsche announced it had broken the 7-minute barrier with a 6:57 lap time.
We shall have to wait and see what the Ferrari marketing department deems worthy of publishing in future to see if the 918’s time in the sun is about to be over.

The lack of an immediate press release from Ferrari would tend to indicate that some sneaky video editing might be necessary to get it under seven minutes. Better luck next time guys!
Give it some time for the video to be post-produced and so on. If they have something to shout about I’d expect to learn about it inside a week or so.
Have to say, it is very unusual for Ferrari to go to the Ring!
I thought all Ferrari’s were tested there. Like the 599XX.
