Lamborghini Essenza SCV12 OnBoard Laps at Monza Circuit!

As promised in the previous video, you can now enjoy some laps on board the mighty Lamborghini Essenza SCV12 during the development test done last week at Monza Circuit, driven by Lamborghini racing driver Raffaele Giammaria. Due to Monza's characteristics, the day was mainly focused on testing brakes and their behavior, trying different solutions.

The Essenza SCV12 is Lamborghini track-only and limited-edition hypercar born as a result of the combined work of Lamborghini Squadra Corse and Lamborghini Centro Stile. It's powered by the production 6.5-litre naturally-aspirated V12 engine able to produce up to 830 hp and linked to a X-trac sequential 6-speed gearbox that unloads the power to the rear wheels. The aerodynamic package comes from Squadra Corse's experience with the Huracan Super Trofeo and GT3 cars. The bodywork is formed by only three elements to enable quick replacement when necessary. The chassis of the SCV12 is a new-generation carbon fiber monocoque without internal rollcage, making it the first GT car developed to respect FIA prototype safety rules. A total of 40 cars will be built and, as it happens with XX cars for Ferrari or P1 and Senna GTRs for Mclaren, the lucky customers will be able to drive them from 2021 in “arrive and drive” events held at FIA Grade 1 homologated circuits.
The Essenza in this video is the development mule, even if it reflects in all respects the definitive machine, so that is still using (and probably will always keep) the camo wrap they put on it to hide the major details of the car for testing before the official presentation, happened last July 2020 and during which they unveiled the colour scheme and livery.

I was expecting it to be a little bit noisier from the inside (looking at the audio level of my recording compared to other race cars), but as confirmed by both drivers, it's kinda quiet when you're in the cockpit, compared from the outside
