aston martin valkyrie

Christian Horner, principal of the Red Bull Racing team, reckons the Aston Martin Valkyrie is capable of toppling the Nurburgring Nordschleife lap record recently set by the Porsche 919 Hybrid Evo.

But alas, British sports car brand Aston Martin says it is unlikely to enter that particular fray.
