Bio: F1 cars rule the open wheel circuit and the MP4-30 is one of its most modern designs. With 700 hp and a top speed over 210 mph, its no walk in the park to tame this monster. An improved variant of the McLaren MP4-29 and an inspiration for the current McLaren MP4 and MCL models, the car features a carbon-fibre composite survival cell chassis keeping both weight and acceleration under control. The car uses a Pushrod system with inboard torsion bars and dampers for the front and a Pullrod system with inboard torsion bars and dampers for the rear. The car itself uses Honda lithium-ion batteries for fast recharging, their lightweight durability, and ease of maintenance. Using Pirelli P Zero and Pirelli Cinturato tires in soft, medium and hard compounds to battle dry and wet conditions, this car remains a tough one to master but when mastered, it comes off as a victorious feeling.
