Yes I'm familiar with the vehicle. Amazing capability and hopefully they'll figure out the battery situation. Truly a huge step forward imo and most likely game over for petrol.

Another good source of info:

It's fascinating tech to be sure, but I feel like it will be quite some time before electrics beat out ICE as primary means of propulsion. Crazy lap though. It'll be fun to see what they do next.
