CLK GTR reborn!!
So you made this up?
Edit: He didn't, it's from jesmb.de
This peculiarity with which Lewis Hamilton and Valtteri Bottas bring the opponents to despair sharpens all components and gets the maximum power from the drive train. In the 3rd free practice, the competitors often think the Mercedes cars are within reach. Even in the 1st and 2nd qualifications the gap is still acceptable and in the 3rd qualification, when it comes to pole, the Mercedes drivers switch to STRAT 2 mode and then there is another 20 hp extra. Depending on the route, this brings 0.2-0.3s and brings Max Verstappen in particular to despair.
I think the engine alone should produce at least 780PS, about the same as the SF90 to make over 1000PS total output680hp is not enough...
It should, but can it? It produced around 750PS in the 2015 F1 car and that was at 15k RPM and the engine only lasted 5000km. They are using valve springs instead of hydraulics so they had to bring the RPM down to 11k. That alone would lower the power from 750 to 550PS. So ok, they can turn up the boost and rely on electric assistance to avoid turbo lag... BUT... they are already at 340PS/l, which equals to still pretty high 220PS/l at 7k RPM. If the engine makes 680PS at 11k RPM, then at 7k it makes about 430PS - which is 266PS/l. That's probably as high as they can make it without making the engine life even shorter than it already is.I think the engine alone should produce at least 780PS, about the same as the SF90 to make over 1000PS total output
I think it looks better without the star at the frontMarkus Schäfer was on the road with AMG CTO Jochen Hermann these days in the AMG Project ONE and was really excited about the performance: ′′Over 1000 hp and a top speed of 350 km/h in a road-approved vehicle...". Deliveries are still starting in 2021.

Yes¿Mercedes has claimed previously that they will do a timed lap around Nürburgring, no?
Baller ass shit
That toI think this comment was intended for the EQS thread?
I wonder if the project one can match the GT3 race cars on the track?
