Buckle up, my fellow petrolheads, because Maserati has just pulled the wraps off its MCXtrema, and let me tell you, it's not your run-of-the-mill Maserati. This one's a track-only beast, a true racing thoroughbred birthed from the loins of the already legendary MC20.

So, if you thought Maserati was taking a leisurely stroll in the automotive park, think again. They're here to redefine the game, to disrupt the status quo. Much like that audacious kid, the MC20, which, by the way, marked a fresh dawn for Maserati.

That's because that’s what the car will be known as when it enters production in 2026, after starting its life as the Polestar O2 Concept. And it’s people power we have to thank for turning this EV roadster from a concept into reality. “With the overwhelming consumer and press response, we took the decision to put this stunning roadster into production and I am so excited to make it a reality,” says Thomas Ingenlath, Polestar CEO.

Back in the '80s, during F1's original turbo era, Porsche was an engine supplier, providing McLaren Racing with a 1.5-litre twin-turbo V6. But before putting it into the race car, it had to be tested, and for that, McLaren and Porsche stuck it unmodified into a 930 Turbo test mule. This white prototype - largely unmodified save for 17-inch RUF wheels, a front bumper from the 930 Flatnose, and a taller whaletail engine cover with extra vents - was kept secret by McLaren until it surfaced in the middle of last decade.

The Mercedes-AMG One isn’t the only car with a Formula One powerplant. Here are a few that came before it.

Designed from the ground up in partnership with HWA AG – the same people who helped in the construction of the CLK GTR road car – the Huayra R features a new chassis, powertrain and aerodynamic package.

At the heart of it all is the new bespoke V12 powerplant, producing 838 bhp at 8250 rpm and 750 Nm of torque between 5500-8300 rpm. It’s the most powerful naturally-aspirated V12 Pagani has ever utilised, with 99 bhp and 40 Nm more than the Zonda R. Best of all, these lofty figures are delivered by a featherweight package that weighs just 198 kg.
