The McLaren P1 has achieved its target of a sub-seven-minute lap around the Nürburgring, according to its makers.
The manufacturer has confirmed the hypercar completed its 20.76km lap at an average speed of more than 185kph theoretically; an exact 185.7kph average speed over 20.76km would take about 6min 59.17sec.
However, McLaren hasn't revealed the exact time of the run. The Porsche 918 Spyder set a 6min 57sec lap time in September, which was verified on video.
McLaren has firmly stated in the past that its target time was only sub seven minutes, with the P1 a regular visitor to the Nürburgring track throughout 2013
McLaren's chief test driver, Chris Goodwin, drove the lap and said: "The track is like the rollercoaster from hell. However, the car feels balanced and poised throughout, and inspires you to push on with the levels of grip and all-round ability.
"With a car this fast, stability is just as important as ultimate grip, and some of the bumpiest sections of the track are also the fastest."
The firm has released a short film about its lap attempt.
