The time has finally come for Mat to get his hands on the insane Aston Martin Valkyrie!
He’s flown over to the Middle East to hit up the Bahrain International Circuit, and he’s going to put this road-legal F1 car through its paces to see just how insane it is once you get behind the wheel!
So what makes the Valkyrie so special? Well for starters, none other than Adrian Newey helped plan and design the aero for the car, from a four-element front wing to an absolutely massive rear diffuser at the back! All of this combines to make the Valkyrie look like no other road-legal car we've seen before!
On the inside, the car may be lacking a bit of storage, but it still comes with a number of functions that you’d find in any car, including an infotainment screen and air conditioning!
Then, of course, we have the incredible power unit. With a 6.5-litre naturally-aspirated V12 coupled with an electric motor, the Valkyrie can produce 1,111hp and 924Nm of torque! It can also rev all the way up to 11,000RPM!!
The question is, will the Valkyrie prove to be as epic on track as it looks? And will Mat be able to handle the insane power of this road-legal hypercar?! It’s time to find out!
