It doesn't for this version of the car. The P100D's battery has a new cooling system, can be pushed WAY harder than previous versions. However, the racing company found the electric motor was the real dependency and was generating most of the heat. It's a bottleneck on the production P100D, but the company has a solution on the race-spec cars. They are collaborating with Tesla on this, so hopefully that solution will also make its way into the production version as well.
