A proper Hybrid where one axle is powered by ICE (Internal Combustion Engine) and the other axle is powered by BEM (Battery & Electric Motors)

The driver was averaging 100 mph around Nurburging, and beat the old record held by Porsche by

Quick at Germany's legendary 12.9-mile, 73-turn Nrburgring Nordschleife is 7:16.04 in a 2018 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 1LE. Quicker is the 2018 Lamborghini Aventador SVJ that busted up the place with a 6:44.97 run, the production-car record. But awesome? Awesome is driver Timo Bernard's 5:19.55 in the Porsche 919 Hybrid Evo. It's the quickest lap any car has ever turned around the Nordschleife, slaughtering the 6:11.13 record that stood for a lifetime, set during qualifying in 1983 by the late Stefan Bellof in that pathetic ox cart, the Porsche 956C. Of course, Bellof was restrained by the burden of having rules to follow. Bernard, in the Evo, wasn't.

Nurburgring @ 5:19.55 beat Porsches 1983 record of 6:11.13 = 0:51.18 faster (51.18 seconds)

That's a 35 year old standing record made by Porsche & the late Stefan Bellof.

51.18 seconds faster on the world's hardest and longest winding track is NUTS.

This is why the true future of Automotive vehicles IMO should be Proper Synergetic Hybrids:
One Axle powered by ICE (Internal Combustion Engine)
Other Axle powered by BEM (Battery & Electric Motor)
A true PHEV that is AWD and only controlled by Electronic Wiring Linkages.
