There was some engine noise, had the KERS system been used rather than the engine (i don't know if the car has the capability to stop using its engine briefly) then surely there would have been an almost non-existent amount of noise.

Rumors appoint that the F70 is capably to ride on elctric mode only. So, why not this one?

It's too early, the official launch for the 12C spyder is September this year and there's a lot to be done to the P12.

It will be limited when it goes production and there will be a baby McLaren after the P12.

Yes, that's precisely why it says 1 of 599 on the 599 GTO -- this way they don't have to individually number each car -- McLaren won't do this and you have to respect that
