McLaren P1 Exhaust Upgrade for Unmatched Power and Sound
At P1 Motorsports, we specialize in delivering motorsport-grade exhaust systems for elite vehicles like the McLaren P1 — tailored to boost performance, enhance sound, and elevate your overall driving thrill. Our exhaust upgrades are built to match the DNA of this hybrid supercar, blending precision with purpose.
Even though the P1 was born from McLaren's track heritage, its stock exhaust system is designed with regulatory compromises in mind. Enthusiasts who crave a more visceral experience often turn to aftermarket solutions for key benefits:
The stock exhaust notes of the P1 are refined but can be underwhelming to some drivers. A custom exhaust system delivers an aggressive, raw, and high-pitched tone that reflects the car's 900+ horsepower capabilities. Whether you're cruising the streets or tearing down a track, the growl of a well-crafted exhaust makes a powerful impression.
P1 Motorsports offers titanium and Inconel exhaust options that are significantly lighter than OEM systems. Shedding weight, especially from a rear-mounted component, can improve handling and acceleration — even in a hypercar this advanced.
While the McLaren P1 already delivers eye-watering speed, a high-flow exhaust improves turbo spool, reduces backpressure, and unlocks hidden horsepower. Paired with a proper tune, gains in torque and throttle response are immediately noticeable.
A custom exhaust system isn't just about sound or power — it's also a visual upgrade. Burnt titanium tips, carbon surrounds, and bespoke outlet configurations allow owners to personalize their P1's rear profile with a race-inspired look.
At P1 Motorsports, we don't just install parts — we elevate performance. Our team is driven by a passion for motorsports engineering and an obsessive attention to detail. Every exhaust system we recommend or design for the McLaren P1 is based on real-world testing, track data, and customer feedback.
We have hands-on experience working with McLaren hypercars. From bespoke installations to custom tuning support, our technicians understand the unique dynamics and requirements of the P1 platform.
Whether you're in the U.S. or across the globe, we provide remote consultation, video inspections, and shipping options for P1 exhaust kits. And if you're located near one of our certified installation partners, you can expect white-glove service from start to finish.
We work with globally respected exhaust manufacturers such as Akrapovič, Ryft, Frequency Intelligent, and custom in-house systems — offering full compatibility, durability, and dyno-tested gains. Every product we carry is tested for the P1's hybrid platform to ensure safety, performance, and longevity.
When you choose P1 Motorsports for your exhaust upgrade, you're not just buying a part — you're investing in a performance transformation. Improved Acceleration : Quicker turbo spool and sharper throttle response.

Fred Vasseur and Ferrari have a ‘clear target' for the 2025 F1 season
Ferrari rocked the Formula 1 world before the start of the 2024 season, reaching an agreement on a contract with seven-time Drivers' Champion Lewis Hamilton to begin driving for the team in 2025. But while Hamilton arrived in Maranello to much fanfare, the results have yet to follow. The living legend has yet to secure a grand prix podium this year, and aside from a win in the F1 Sprint race at the Chinese Grand Prix and a podium in the F1 Sprint at the Miami Grand Prix, the results have not matched the hype. Ferrari is locked in a tight battle with Mercedes, Hamilton's former team, for second in the Constructors' Championship race, but they are miles behind first-place McLaren. And last weekend's Hungarian Grand Prix was a difficult result for the team. While Charles Leclerc started on pole, his pace in the later stages of the race faded as his SF-25 had suffered chassis damage, and he finished a frustrating fourth. As for Hamilton, he qualified 12th and finished 12th, and sounded like a driver who could not wait for the Summer Shutdown to arrive. In a video interview with the official F1 channel, Team Principal Frederic Vasseur addressed the team's present, and future. 'I'm really convinced that it takes time,' said Vasseur. 'It takes time, not just at Ferrari, but everywhere. 'If you look at any good story in F1 – when Christian [Horner] joined Red Bull or Jean [Todt] joined Ferrari before – all these good success stories took time before the first win. Also, because that resource system in the paddock, you need a couple of years to build up a team, to accrue people that you want to have with you. And then it also takes time to work together.' Vasseur's own tenure with the team came under pressure earlier this season, when reports in Italian media surfaced that his position was under threat at Ferrari. The team put those rumors to rest ahead of the Hungarian Grand Prix, as Vasseur put pen to paper on a new multi-year deal. Vasseur called the move a 'good step' for the 'stability' of the team. 'It's a good step,' he said. 'We had a couple of discussions. There were some rumors in the press, the last couple of weeks. I think it's not easy for the stability and mood of the team, but now it is behind us. 'It's important, it's a good step that we have to be ready for the last part of the season. That we are fighting for P2 in the championship with Mercedes and Red Bull and we want to win some races before the end.' Winning races in 2025, and starting 2026 on the front foot, is the target for the team. 'We want to be very agile in Formula 1, but the reality is that we have a lot of inertia. We are pushing for this. We have a clear target, a clear goal. Everybody in the company is aligned in this project and pushing in the same direction. This is probably the best feeling, when you have a goal and everybody is convinced we can achieve it,' described the Ferrari boss. 'As usual in a season, you have pros and cons. You can see the glass half-empty or half-full. 'It's true that in the championship, we are in front of Red Bull and we're in front of Mercedes, but we are also a bit far away off McLaren. But I think, overall, we're improving. Improving on the methodology, on the approach, on the process. Sometimes it's not visible on track, day-by-day, but I think overall we're making steps forward. It's important for us to remain P2 [in the Constructors' Championship] and to win more races until the end.' However, the incoming regulation change gives Ferrari a chance to begin next year at the front of the grid. 'The 2026 project, it's a huge challenge that we have to be all fully aligned together to manage it,' said Vasseur. 'It's not a secret that Ferrari want to win again. We have the target and the goal is very, very clear. We will do everything to achieve it. We all want to win the championship. We've made a decent step forward everywhere, but now we need perhaps a bit more time to put everything together. The 2026 challenge is a good opportunity. 'We made a step, probably, in Spa. Now, we have to understand a bit more the new suspension and to be able to fine-tune it. But we are now fully focused on 2026. That means we need to get the best from what we have. I still want to win races this season, but the main part of the focus is on 2026.'

Secret documents and a rallying cry: How Lewis Hamilton is trying to revive Ferrari
Prior to a Belgian Grand Prix weekend to forget for Lewis Hamilton, whose last F1 win came here a year ago with Mercedes, the question posed to the Ferrari driver without a podium to his name this year was an innocuous one. His answer, however, was an unyielding message to his beleaguered Ferrari team. Asked whether he'd been at the Maranello factory in the last few weeks, Hamilton replied that he had. A 'couple of days each week', he detailed. Then, untriggered, the British driver, often so reluctant to reveal the inner workings of his mind, went into full disclosure mode. 'I've called on lots of meetings with the heads of the team, so I've sat with John [Elkann], Benedetto [Vigna] and Fred [Vasseur],' Hamilton said, referring to the Ferrari chair, CEO and team principal – the three-pronged executive team who lured the 40-year-old to the Scuderia. 'I've sat with the head of our car development, with Loic [Serra], but also with the heads of different departments, talking about the engine for next year, talking about front suspension for next year, talking about rear suspension for next year. 'I've sent documents; I've done [that] through the year. After the first few races I did a full document for the team, then during this break I had another two documents that I sent in, and so they would come in and want to address those.' Quite aside from the somewhat amusing hypothetical image of seven-time world champion Hamilton sitting astutely at a desk, hunched over a laptop firing off emails to decision-makers and engineers, his words speak volumes as to the current state of the once-great Italian outfit. Because the Brit, having spent 18 seasons at McLaren (one title) and Mercedes (six titles), knows a thing or two about successful motor-racing teams. And it goes beyond the simplicity of a quick driver in the cockpit, or rapid machinery at his fingertips. It is the whole organisation, working in perfect harmony, towards a common goal. Hamilton spoke of 'structural adjustments' within the Ferrari F1 team, alongside issues with the car that need to be changed for 2026, when new engine and chassis regulations come into play. An era in the sport that is likely to be Hamilton's last. And one in which his former team Mercedes – alongside their engine partners McLaren and Williams – seem best-placed for a revival, in contrast to Ferrari. Of course, 13 races into a 2025 season dominated by McLaren, Hamilton already has all his horizons set on next year. Ferrari brought their last major upgrade of the season to Spa – a new rear suspension – and while Charles Leclerc salvaged a respectable podium in Sunday's grand prix, Hamilton had a torrid few days in the Ardennes forest. In practice, he impeded a number of drivers at the top of Eau Rouge. Then, in sprint race qualifying, he spun on his final lap, at the final chicane, due to a rear brake issue. Hamilton, baffled in the media pen afterwards, insisted that such an issue had 'never happened to him before' in his 19-year F1 career. Lewis Hamilton's results in 2025 Australia - 10th China - DSQ Japan - 7th Bahrain - 5th Saudi Arabia - 7th Miami - 8th Imola - 4th Monaco - 5th Spain - 6th Canada - 6th Austria - 4th Great Britain - 4th Belgium - 7th It meant the Saturday sprint race was a write-off as he finished 16th, before an error in qualifying, taking his car outside the remits of the white lines, meant he was eliminated in Q1 for the second day running. By this stage, Hamilton was already writing this one off as a 'weekend to forget'. But on Sunday, sparks of life. Starting in the pit lane, Hamilton stormed up the field as the first driver to make the correct call and switch to dry tyres, and made up 11 places to finish seventh. He was voted driver of the day. But calls from the pit wall to 'lift and coast' – curtailing his ability to go full throttle on straights – highlight more issues for this SF-25 Ferrari car. All of this has placed Vasseur under immense pressure at the start of the season. Asked by The Independent about the morale of the team, and Hamilton, on Sunday evening, Ferrari's team principal replied: 'It's not the result we were expecting with Lewis, but it's part of the life of a racing team to react collectively very well. 'It was a good recovery for him. For sure, we have to do a better job to score podiums or wins; you can't let one session get away. We have to make a step next week, but we are all pushing in the same direction.' The numbers, however, make for grim reading for Hamilton. In his first year in red, it is his worst ever start to an F1 season. While Leclerc has picked up five top-three finishes this year, Hamilton's best result remains fourth. In the 11 remaining races, Hamilton will be desperate not to become the first Ferrari driver since Kimi Raikkonen in 2014 not to record a podium all season. It is not just about the car, either. Hamilton admits that his qualifying displays, much like his final season for Mercedes, have not been up to scratch. Yet the bigger picture – as is the consensus up and down the paddock for every team other than McLaren – is that this season no longer matters. Next year will give the first indications of who will dominate the next generation. And as Hamilton acknowledged pre-race in Spa, in something that amounted to a rallying cry for the thousands of Ferrari personnel in Maranello, it is 'crunch time' for the Brit in his deep-rooted quest for an eighth world championship. 'I feel that it's my job to challenge absolutely every area,' he said. 'If you look at the team over the last 20 years, they've had amazing drivers. Fernando, Sebastian, all world champions. However, they didn't win a world championship, and for me, I refuse for that to be the case. I'm going the extra mile.' But beyond that call to arms, his most telling statement was as follows: 'I'm very fortunate to have had experiences in two other great teams, and things are for sure going to be different. 'I think, sometimes, if you take the same path all the time, you get the same results. So, I'm just challenging certain things.' And as a headline in Italian newspaper La Gazzetta dello Sport read three weeks ago, it's now time for Ferrari to listen to Lewis Hamilton.

Lewis Hamilton appalled at his F1 qualifying display in Hungary: ‘I'm useless'
Lewis Hamilton was appalled at his own F1 qualifying performance in Hungary, describing his performance as 'useless.' The 40-year-old, who is yet to register a podium this season with Ferrari, could only qualify a disappointing 12th on the grid for Sunday's race. Meanwhile, Hamilton's teammate Charles Leclerc claimed a surprise pole position ahead of the McLaren pair of Oscar Piastri and Lando Norris Hamilton said on the radio 'every time, every time' after he was knocked out in Q2, and did not mince his words in the media pen afterwards. 'It's just me every time – I'm useless, absolutely useless,' a downbeat Hamilton told Sky Sports F1. 'The team has no problem, we're on pole. They probably need to change driver.' Hamilton has endured a difficult start to his time in Scuderia red. The Briton has not finished a grand prix higher than fourth place, though he did win the sprint race in China in March. After the first 13 races, Hamilton is positioned sixth in the world championship, 157 points behind leader Piastri and 30 points off Leclerc. Last week in Spa, Hamilton was knocked out in Q1 twice - for the sprint race and the grand prix - as his issues on a Saturday continue. Meanwhile, Leclerc could not contain his shock at claiming top spot in qualifying. 'I don't understand anything in Formula 1!' he said. 'The whole qualifying was extremely difficult Q3, everything became a lot trickier, I just knew it had to be a clean lap. I definitely did not expect that. 'We are on pole position, I have no words, probably one of the best I've ever had, the most unexpected for sure.' Piastri will line up second on the grid ahead of Norris, with George Russell positioned in fourth. The race on Sunday starts at 2pm (BST).
