Arrow Check out this hot lap at Sebring...HPD ARX-01 LMP1 car driven by Marino Franchitti

YouTube - Sebring Hot Lap

This is Marino Franchitti on a fire breathing lap of Sebring International Raceway on board the HPD ARX-01e that finished second in this year's Mobil 1 Twelve Hours of Sebring.

The result is simply incredible when you consider that the team only received the car ONE WEEK before, shook it down, and got it ready. They then went on to stuff the factory Audi and Peugeot teams in the 12Hr race to finish an incredible 2nd, only 32 seconds back after 12hrs of racing....AMAZING

Enjoy the sounds !

On to LeMans next

Great video! I really like the Acura guys. At the Long Beach Grand Prix I met them all and they were super nice. I also like the Peugeots. This video truly shows why Sebring is the most demanding and rough track on the schedule.

Very cool to see it more or less from their perspective. That track really is incredibly bumpy and very physically demanding.

I am amazed the cars aren't literally shaken to pieces by the end of a grueling 12 hours at Sebring.
