As Fast As A F1 Race Car? Insane Aston Martin Redbull AM-RB 001 Hypercar Revealed!

This is the Aston Martin AM-RB 001, the hypercar built in collaboration with Formula 1 team Red Bull Racing that is the fastest, most advanced Aston yet and the first road car to be created by the foremost F1 designer, Adrian Newey.

Autocar was granted exclusive access to this full-sized model of the two-seat AM-RB 001 ahead of its official unveiling at Aston’s Gaydon headquarters on 5 July. A total of "between 99 and 150" road cars will be built, as well as 25 track cars. In its track specification, the AM-RB 001 will, Aston boss Andy Palmer maintains, be capable of lapping Silverstone at the same pace as an F1 car in race trim.

Yes, I like fast cars.

Yes, I cannot afford it.

I think it's ugly and devoid of styling interest. On the side view, you really cannot tell which way it's pointed.

There's nothing "Aston" about it.

Astons are gentlemen's cruisers. Had they made a hypercruiser with Aston DNA in the styling, I would be more interested.
