Try Not To Cry As You Watch This McLaren P1 Going Up In Flames

This P1 was filmed on fire in Colnbrook, Berkshire, and the footage is rather distressing...

Another "quality" #McLaren product. Hope the driver was ok. #p1 #deathtrap

This is definitely one of those lie down on the floor, try not to cry moments. We do see supercars go up in flames from time to time, but it’s not often something as rare as a McLaren P1 ablaze - just 375 of the things were made, after all.

The car was spotted on Poyle Road in Colnbrook, near Slough, at which point the flames had already spread to a significant portion of Ron’s finest. The damage must have been extensive by the time the emergency services arrived.

The cause of the fire looks to have been a fuel leak, with a wet patch - itself partially alight - seen leading up to the stricken P1 in the video.

Thankfully, the owner is thought to have escaped uninjured.

Am I the only person that when a new supercar gets destroyed I don’t care too much, but when a Miata or Silvia gets destroyed, I break down?

So that’s what ‘F1 inspired’ means . . .
