There’s a new Koenigsegg in town! I love typing that. Just ahead of the Goodwood Festival of Speed in two weeks and to celebrate Jesko von Koenigsegg’s 80th birthday, Swedish mad scientist Christian von Koenigsegg has unveiled something new, the Koenigsegg Sadair’s Spear. That’s a weird name, but it pays tribute to the horse Christian’s father, Jesko von Koenigsegg, rode in his final race in 1976 as a jockey. Because of the link with Jesko himself, the car is obviously based on the standard Koenigsegg Jesko, but it’s more hardcore, with less weight, more power, and with a wing that big, more downforce.
