Four turbos and sixteen cylinders between them, not to mention a whole lot of electronics - that's what these two amazing supercars brought to famous Yas Marina circuit in Abu Dhabi.
Huge flames were bellowing out of their exhausts like smelting furnaces getting ready to craft a really sharp sword. A flamethrower hypercar with over 900 horsepower will quite literally brighten up your day.

The 12C supercars which are powered by similar 3.8-liter twin-turbo engines are good at making flames as well, but the P1 is almost constant in its delivery, making you wonder if it really is all-right to drive this down the road.

The video you are about to watch was shot by Shmee150, who was one of the 12C owners who were invited by McLaren to do a hot lap in the P1.

Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
