Seven minutes is the new eight minutes when it comes to Nürburgring Nordschleife lap times, and with a time of 6:59.73, the Lamborghini Aventador LP 750-4 Superveloce just barely gets its Italian loafers into the door of the extremely exclusive sub-seven minute club. Impressively, the time was a massive 25-second improvement over the base Aventador, which speaks volumes about the Superveloce’s aggressive aero add-ons, weight savings and sticky Pirelli P Zero Corsas.
Obviously, Lamborghini had some cameras handy to document the occasion. DTM and GT3 class racer and Pirelli test driver Marco Mapelli was responsible for the blindingly quick lap, and I definitely encourage you to watch this in-car footage of him hustling the V-12-powered Lambo around the ‘Ring. I can’t think of a stronger word than “brave” without getting vulgar, but this Mapelli guy is a seriously impressive driver.
