The Koenigsegg Agera RS has zero chance against a F1 car on a track .
Actually any other car vs F1 would look ridiculous slow..

You should see an F1 car on track in person some day. It is unreal, like it defies physics. ANY other car looks like it is barely moving in comparison.

Side by side video of F1 cars vs very fast track and road cars going through Eau Rouge.

Thanks guys for that clarification.

But wait; after looking a little more, I found this:
"A Honda Formula One car, running with minimum downforce on a runway in the Mojave desert achieved a top speed of 415 km/h (258 mph) in 2006. According to Honda"
http://www.answers.com/Q/What_is_the...n_mph?#slide=2

and this;
"If we were to purely test the top speeds of F1 cars or MotoGP bikes, the results will be much higher than what can ever be achieved during a race. BAR Honda set an unofficial top speed of 413km/hr using a modified BAR 007 in 2005. MotoGP bikes can be expected to reach higher speeds too, but due to aerodynamic restrictions these differences won't be as vast as F1."

So, this Konigsegg really is very fast.

I agree . But not on a track my friend .
Till 2013 the F1 engines were limited to 18,000 rpm's .
The todays F1 Turbo engines are limited to 15,000 rpm's .

Can you imagine the accelerations those things can make while they pull out of a corner and they weigh only +/- 700 KG and pushing with extra boost 1,000 HP .
And the downforce....Holy shit !

Like I said the Konigsegg vs F1 would look really slow . On a track..

In a top speed run on a straight road, very likely.

Yeah, you're right about their weight to horsepower ratio, considering that their acceleration is insane.

Don't forget about the F1 G-Forces in your neck...

Let us talk about how fast the F1 can reach their top speed ..

There is an overlay video of this video, you can see both car types in the same video and then you really get a sense how much faster F1 is.

Got to sit at that corner for one F1 race. Amazing.

No. That's cheating.
