Here’s The Awkward Moment A McLaren P1 GTR Almost Wiped Out On Laguna Seca’s Corkscrew

In a video that shows us that even the pros get it wrong from time-to-time, one of the factory P1 GTRs has a big moment at the fearsome Laguna Seca Corkscrew with a professional driver at the wheel

According to the video description, at the time of the spin the pro driver here was setting a fast lap time as a benchmark for P1 GTR customers to aim for. Clearly, he was very committed to setting a good time!

Haha that’s not really power-related… Just mid-corner oversteer that wasn’t corrected early. Well the driver got on the throttle while already in oversteer which didn’t help but that’s the kind of thing that you can experience in a “weak” Peugeot 106…
