(These are only the official track records as found on Formula One's website. I know that *actual* lap records are different.)

Porsche EV beats a 911 Turbo S around an Formula 1 racetrack

The acceleration in this car is absolute ridiculous. I think they can go sub 7:00 with a few more attempts. Great work by the Rimac team!

Okay I had a reference photo I’ve been dying to use but didn’t know who it fit best and had an epiphany. If you want to see the reference photo it’ll be under the keep reading.

you ever think about how andrew's freak out after neil got kidnapped wasn't about the deal they made? andrew was FREAKING the fuck out and he didn't even stop to think about why. it wasn't because he had broken his promise and it wasn't because neil wasn't around to keep his, no, it was because it was NEIL. and despite everything, andrew CARES. he CARES about NEIL MF JOSTEN. he couldn't even excuse it by saying it was about the deal, because neil broke it off. he couldn't hide behind the promise he made, because neil made him break it, so it isn't about andrew, or the promise or the deal, it's about neil.

Czinger 21C beats Koenigsegg Jesko's Laguna Seca lap record by a whisker
