With now full boost being available, the e-machine output increased by ten per cent from 400 to 440 hp.The engineers also unchained the aerodynamics of the 919 Evo from the regulations.
Currently, its lap of 1:41.770 is no longer the record at Spa, but it's not far off the current record set by a 2018 Ferrari F1 car. Best time on the Nürburgring-Nordschleife: Timo Bernhard beats six-minute mark with the 919 Hybrid Evo in the “Green Hell”.This Friday morning Timo Bernhard (D) lapped the 20.832 kilometre (12.94 miles) Nürburgring Nordschleife race circuit in 5 minutes and 19.55 seconds.

The 919 Evo started off as the car that won Le Mans last year, but it's been freed from the technical regulations of the World Endurance Championship in which it competed.
The Evo weighs only 849 kilograms and its modified (and now active) aerodynamics generate over 50 per cent more downforce compared to the WEC model. In April, the Porsche prototype beat Lewis Hamilton's lap record by 0.783 seconds. The combustion engine drives the rear axle while the electro motor boosts the front axle to accelerate the car with four-wheel drive. But now the fastest lap time belongs to an F1 car once again.To send off its three-time Le Mans-winning LMP1 car, Porsche has built the 919 Hybrid Evo, a high-downforce machine designed to break lap records. As far as new cars (which are type approved in accordance with the WLTP) are concerned, the NEDC values will, therefore, be derived from the WLTP values during the transition period. Due to the more realistic test conditions, the fuel/electricity consumption and CO₂ emission values determined in accordance with the WLTP will, in many cases, be higher than those determined in accordance with the NEDC. At the same time it recuperates energy from the exhaust system that otherwise would pass unused in to the atmosphere. It's going to do a demo lap on the Nürburgring Nordshliefe next month. They are intended solely as a means of comparing different types of vehicle.
And it's already broken its first.
Michelin developed special tyre compounds for the 919 Evo that produces more downforce than a Formula One car.The attempt at the Nordschleife closes the chapter of chasing records with the Porsche 919 Hybrid Evo. Freed from these restrictions, equipped with an updated software but running the regular race fuel (E20, containing 20 per cent bio ethanol), the Evo version delivers 720 hp.Because the amount of energy from the two recovery systems that could be used was limited as well in terms of electric megajoule per lap, the systems stayed far below their potential. The additional reporting of the WLTP values is voluntary until their obligatory use.

Also his average speed was over 200 km/h.Proud and relieved Timo Bernhard, five-time overall winner of the Nürburgring 24-hours, two-time outright winner of the Le Mans 24-hours and reigning World Endurance Champion with the Porsche 919 Hybrid, clambered out of the tight Le Mans prototype cockpit. Thus, its hybrid power train now develops a system output of 1160 hp. The 919 Evo is the same car that beat Lewis Hamilton's 2017 pole at Spa Francorchamps earlier this year. As of 1 September 2018 the WLTP replaced the New European Driving Cycle (NEDC).
It's so quick, it almost doesn't look like real-life. It's basically built to set lap records like this. Today’s joint show of the Porsche 919 Hybrid Evo alongside the 956 C on the Nürburgring Nordschleife. The 919 is powered by a compact two-litre turbo charged V4-cylinder engine and two energy recovery systems – brake energy from the front axle combined with exhaust energy. His time of 1:41.7 was an astonishing 12 seconds faster than the 919's pole-setting lap at the circuit last year.And the best part?
