The chit-chatter on the interwebs today is that Jeremy Clarkson and the filming crews from Top Gear UK were at the Spa-Francorchamps motor-racing circuit in Belgium testing the new McLaren P1 hybrid supercar.

Clarkson confirmed it with a Twitter post that read, “Right. The P1. Complete game changer. The next chapter in motoring. Speed like you simply would not believe”.

The black-colored P1 was both filmed and photographed in and around the racetrack by fans of the show, with the famed matte-black Mercedes-Benz Pursuit ML63 AMG camera car and a helicopter also making an appearance.

We assume it won’t be long before we see the car on Top Gear’s television show, but until then, enjoy the material we have right below the jump.
