P1 and 650S are two of the most recognizable names in the McLaren lineup. Ok, really, they’re two out of just four names in the McLaren lineup, but that doesn’t make these two supercars any less potent.

In the black corner, a McLaren P1: the million dollar, 900-horsepower hybrid hypercar known the world over. In the orange corner, the McLaren 650S: a 641-horsepower quarter of a million dollar supercar capable of eating Corvettes for breakfast.

It may seem like there’s a clear cut winner here, but hold on just a minute....

 

 

Towards the end of the track, it’s pretty obvious why the McLaren P1 is the earth-moving hypercar that it is. But I’m sure you were as surprised as I was that the 650S held on to its lead for as long as it did.
