Aventador LP 750-4 SV Onboard ‪Nürburgring‬ lap in under 7m

During P Zero Corsa tyre development tests with Pirelli - the Aventador LP 750-4 Superveloce presented at the 85th International Motor Show in Geneva - has completed the Nürburgring Nordschleife circuit tearing down the wall of the mythical 7-minute.

 

Damn, I didn't expect that

 

6:59.73
ICE, no hybrid, AWD, around 1680 kg, newest Corsa street legal tires, driver probably not Marc Lieb
--> that's fast

 

it looks pretty sketchy from time to time especially at the end. freaking quick though!

 

Just seeing this time, can anyone answer me about the lap. The start of the clock and the finish aren't at the same spot. Is this timing the same used for other recorded times. Also where is passenger seat? Driver in race seat? Its a great time don't get me wrong but raises a few questions with no answers.

 

Also rumors is it that Mark Lieb wants another go in the 918 with different tires and full production car compared to the pre production run. Maybe we could see a 6:4X.XX time.

 

The same here: SLS AMG Coupé Black Series - 7'25"67 on the Nordschleife
Lap time starts at the corner and stops at the line.

 

Thanks for the info!

Full lap

A full lap of the Nordschleife, bypassing the modern GP track, is 20.832 km (12.944 mi) long. Most laps are completed 200 metres (656 ft) shorter for safety reasons.

Sport Auto lap

During the industry testing sessions in which sport auto records its "Supertest", the track can not be traveled at full speed past "Tribüne 13" (T13, grandstand 13) in order to allow safe access from the old exit/entrance there. Thus, sport auto Supertests cover only about 20.6 km (12.8 mi), which in average yields a 7s shorter lap time compared to a full lap.
