Honestly, I think Ferrari is doing itself more harm by refusing to participate than if they just gave MT a car and lost to the 918. YouTube commenters are about the lowest common denominator of the car world, and even they aren't disparaging the P1 for losing. Instead, they're just accepting that both cars are so stupidly fast that the only relevant deciding factor is personal preference.

On another note, I'm immensely impressed by the 918 Spyder. I remember Chris Harris' reviews of the pre-production 918 and P1; he came away from the 918 unconvinced that hybrid technology was the future, whereas the P1 made him a believer. Fortunately, Porsche took that constructive criticism and worked their magic for the production model. It went from being the overweight/underpowered underdog, to being the best driving and fastest of the hybrid hypercar trio.
