Wow! Crazy fast...
At first, I thought it was on normal road tyres, but reading the video description I now suspect it was slicks. (Hard to tell from the pic above.) Still hugely impressive though.

To put this autopilot Tesla lap in perspective, the same driver--Randy Pobst-- did a 1:27.62 lap in a 2017 McLaren Senna.

Impressive indeed, but how many laps could the Tesla do in anger?

Next Gen ( Gen 3 ) Formula E can part charge battery in 5 minutes so introduce pitstops
No reason they could not do 24 hour race

Battery tech is getting better all the time
The VW ID R already is capable of smashing lap records, by 2040 most of euro will ban petrol and diesel engines, imagine the tech and performance by then
