Don't think so - Bugatti/VAG mustn't have allowed it. Full list here:

I'm sure James May (Captain Slow) did more than 200mph in it though :shocked:

TBH, the Veyron isn't really about "setting fast lap times".  It more of an "intercontinental long-distance super GT", so point and squirt lappery will probably do it no favours, and certainly won't place it at the top of the power laps chart.

May did his blat in the Veyron at the VW test track, and, IIRC, said it would drink a full tank of juice in 8 minutes when the go pedal is mashed to the floor!  Makes my RS4 look "green"!  :shocked:  :laugh:
