• Tesla CEO Musk has suggested that the electric-car maker will at some point attempt to break that record with its Model S sedan. A Model S "Plaid" prototype drove on the track this week, clocking an unofficial time of about seven minutes and 20 seconds, according to Tesla.
• The Taycan Turbo's lap time is still a ways off from the all-time record, set last year by the Porsche 919 Hybrid Evo.
