Koenigsegg One:1 Resets the Spa Francorchamps Lap Record

Watch the lunacy that is Koenigsegg’s One:1 hypercar thumping in a blisteringly quick and rather dirty lap of Spa.

Quick because it stopped the clocks at 2:32.14, besting the previous 2:38 road-legal production car record as well as Koenigsegg’s own previous 2:33.16 best in the same car just a month earlier.

Dirty because it looks as though this lap was set at an open track day, with lots of other slow moving objects to negotiate. And the small matter of that large stone chip right in the middle of the screen. Plus the video’s description mentions the main in-car camera was not working, hence the low-res backup footage we see here.

Re-run soon?
