VIDEO: Record-Breaking Nürburgring Run of Volkswagen ID.R

Volkswagen recently broke a Nürburgring Nordschleife lap record when its Volkswagen ID.R electric race car ran a lap of the famed circuit at six minutes, 5.336 seconds, beating the previous record by a little over 40 seconds.

Well, it's been a week since the record has been announced and Volkswagen Motorsport has finally released a couple of videos documenting it--including a full-lap, in-car video with driver Romain Dumas.

You can check out both videos below.
