Yes and that video is from a few years ago. They mention a 1:19 which is still stupid fast. (991 Cups would be around 10 seconds slower and on slicks where this was on road legal R spec Yokohama AO50). Last year (first year on slicks) the car broke the outright lap record with a low 1:17 and there's more in it. They should get into the 1:16's in a few weeks time at W.T.A.C. '24...all things going to plan. Bear in mind the previous lap record (high 1:17s) was held by Nico Hulkenberg in an A1 GP car.
It would be very interesting to see what this car could do at Nürburgring.
If you're curious about the accent of the interviewer, he's from New Zealand. Not Australian. Stands out to us Aussies I guess like the US and Canadian differences do to you guys. But their channel is very informative and worth following.

I joined HP a number of years ago
I know my country accents well

. Done lots of traveling.
The feed just resurfaced on my account so I thought I would repost.
Your car, RP and Redline are cars that I like to check out. I am looking forward to seeing the car Michael is working on in action also.
Not working on my cars as much lately so need my fix.
The new Duck is taking up more of my time.
