Jay Leno welcomes fellow supercar collector Dan Heard to compare three engineering masterpieces shaped by the ethos of legendary designer Professor Gordon Murray: the revolutionary 1995 McLaren F1, the hybrid hypercar benchmark McLaren P1, and the all-new Gordon Murray Automotive (GMA) T.50.
From early McLaren F1 delivery stories—including Harold Dermott's infamous "secret switch"—to driving the naturally aspirated 12,100 RPM Cosworth V12 GMA T.50 out on the open road, Jay and Dan break down the ultimate driver-focused machines ever built.
