1. Get 15% off your Carly purchase with code "Tavarish23" (auto-applied) until 30 November when you click: https://bit.ly/Carly_Tavarish

2. Yeah as an automotive engineer who works on electronics, I'm all for it. Those electric systems are needlessly complicated just to show off the manufacturer's latest tech. You don't need it.

3. I just don't understand how anyone can possibly re-assemble this from memory

4. Been watching the whole series. Just wondering why don't you just wear gloves and a mask…

5. Can't really call it a P1 anymore, you could take the body off a ford fiesta and put custom body panels on it to look like a P1, it would be the same as what you have here…

6. Without the hybrid system this project is just an overpriced kit car.

7. Laaaaaame

8. This was ALWAYS going to be a gutted-out car…..wow, what a time-wasting endeavor…Should do a different car…

9. I thought Rich sourced new batteries. Why not keep the hybrid system?

10. Definitely lose that heavy hybrid garbage, just weighing you down and making it slower! Can’t wait for the next video…..don’t let these clowns in the comments try to change your mind on it.

11. can't wait to see the final result great idea to remove the hybrid and save some money , time and weight GOOD LUCK FREDDY, and thanks for the content.

12. Getting rid of the hybrid system was a very smart idea. After much research (watching Rich rebuilds video on it). It'll out perform a normal P1 and stay true to the F1 build Tavarish had in mind.

13. I can't wait to see this thing when it's done. I hope that Freddy takes some time to hone his skills or hires a pro diver. It's going to be Bananas.

14. will McLaren be happy you saved this P1 and 'improved' it? I hope so they should be giving you all the support you need..

15. I'm not an expert. ditching The McLaren P1's battery, is there an alternative? like getting a hybrid battery system from atleast a Prius, or Old Tesla's? Though it sounds impossible

16. Told y’all this series was gonna take 10 years 112 days , 34 hours and 22 seconds , until he finishes

17. Miss Jared yet?

18. You don't know how MacLaren wanted you to take it apart? Spoiler alert: They didn't want you to take it apart.

19. Am I alone in welcoming a pure petrol mclaren p1? Seems like the correct thing to do

20. @tavarish you should take a bit of sand and put it in a tiny glass bottle and hang it from the rear view mirror as a memento to the cars journey

21. Really bummed this isn't going to have the hybrid system. Sort of loses the reason why it was classified as a hyper car.

22. Didn't the Battery have like an 8 mile range? Sounds like the right decision to me.

23. Wtf douche move….

25. Fred, I just saw Rich Rebuilds video. I was not aware so many people kind of attacked you for saying you are going to delete the hybrid system. I had to come back to read my original comment, and I really don't think I attacked you or called you any bad names. I was mainly interested in knowing if the P1 without the hybrid system would be quicker. It would be fairly easy to make it faster (you will be removing a lot of weight). The instant torque of the electric motor makes hybrids really quick. The V Engineering UK trip you took, the guys had said they redesigned the battery to be better and lighter. I had no idea they want $120k for their battery. Maybe you could do a collab with someone like Aging Wheels or Electric Supercar or someone (other than Rich who suggested you delete it in the first place) and build a battery. I personally think Rich just wants to see your channel tank, but that's just me. It's your call. I am not going to unsubscribe. I just asked if (after SEMA), somewhere down the line, if you would consider adding the hybrid system back. If I lent you $100k for the battery, would you do it? Best wishes.

26. Hi Jack. Never say that on a plane.

27. How doyou keep up with what goes where?

28. Hey Freddy, just wanted to say all the people crying about you removing the hybrid system don't know what they're talking about…dumping all that extra weight and complexity out of an already immensely complex project can only be a winning move for your P1. I hope everything comes together in time for sema. Keep up the great work brother, God bless!

29. Bit disappointed about his build now😢

30. Hybrid is for sissies anyway

31. Crazy they’re so far along and theres still sand 😮

32. This is going to be a P1 that might be faster than stock with that weight savings from the hybrid system. Can't wait to see how the difference will be with a regular P1.

33. Was looking forward to seeing hybrid system , I think that is what makes it a p1

34. Man Vtuned would have had been having this car fixed by now. And on to his next project

35. Leave it out and don’t look back!

36. Ditch the hybrid system and go with making that car fast as possible

37. unless someone give to Tavarish a Brand New and More Powerfull Eletrical Engine with at least +300HP, and lighter and powerfull Bateries, is nonsense keep a Old hybrid System, thats makes the car Slower and Heavier. On track 720S is just 0,5s slower than P1, and P1 has 916 HP combined vs 720s with 720hp. So THIS P1 wil be the lightest P1 over the planet and with 1000HP+ will be the FASTEST P1 ON PLANET also. GO GO GO GO TAVARISH….

38. Rich is right. Fuck the 10 yo battery

39. This will no longer be a P1 with no hybrid system

40. Since you are removing the electric aspect of the hybrid system i recon you could supercharge and turbocharge it. (I know it sounds like a new way to blow a motor but it has been done on insanely fast cars eg Lancia delta s4) because if you supercharge it, it will cover the low rpm boost (that the hybrid system once covered) until the turbos spool and deal with the high end boost. And this addition would make the car truly unique and quick as well as fast.
    Just a thought…

41. that car is gonna be a beast on that deadweight reduction.

42. bro, this is a unique built! I love the way the car is going. Make it fast and unique. Thank all this butthurts crying about a car that its not theirs! if it hurts you so much, buy one and fit it yourself to me. Building a unique p1 is more fun than keeping it original for the resell value

43. Thanks Rich rebuilds. Take those ton of batteries out make it faster.

44. I was looking forward to the hybrid system because it would have been great content

45. Ahh man, i normally dont react to videos, but man you just need that hybrid system to let the p1 be the p1.. for some reason i just dont want to watch the updates like i did before what is sad because i do like you and your videos 🙁

46. I started watching this and stopped exactly when Freddy made the 'announcement'. I have to admit, I clicked out. But after hearing how 'the community' has reacted, I came back to finish this out.

    I think there's an obvious "Ship of Theseus" argument to be made about how much you can change and still be able to call this a P1, and admittedly, my first reaction was that removing the hybrid system was a bridge too far. But Rich made an incredible point in his video … incredibly little from the original vehicle is still going to be in place and the hybrid system is really just another thing getting changed, and if I'm OK with the changes made to the engine/transmission, why is the hybrid system any different? Again, I think it's practically all that makes it a P1 given how many parts are shared by the other cars, but …

    At the end of the day, while I wouldn't say Freddy is going to have a unique 1 of 1 P1 … He is definitely going to have a McLaren that has a unique story, and just getting that thing running in any form is a Herculean effort. And I'll keep watching just to see how it turns out.

47. Eh… losing interest now. Wish they could make it hybrid still.

48. Can’t wait to see what you end up doing with YOUR P1!

49. Really looking forward to seeing the hybrid system deleted. I want to see what he does to make up for the HP
