OK, this should be good. The first ever AMG One vs Valkyrie head to head track test! I'm looking forward to it.
 
I' m looking for some info but i can't find it so maybe you guys can help me.
Since AMG one is using F1 engine (detuned for the road) it use pneumatic spring ( pressurized gas,) for closing the valves. In F1 race car they have small tank filled with nitrogen ( pressurized) that can be filled quickly during the race (in pit stop) if needed.

But what about the system in road car (AMG One)? Do they have a compressor (that supply pressurized air when there is need for it) or?
 
I really wasn't expecting the weight discrepancy vs claimed stats. Valkyrie is 52 kg lighter and AMG One 45 kg heavier.

Shame about the weather, thought. Wet Thruxton must be pure agony.

Do they have a compressor (that supply pressurized air when there is need for it) or?
Yup!
