McLaren Unveils Heritage Livery for British Grand Prix
McLaren has revealed a new livery for the British Grand Prix inspired by their 1966 F1 debut. The design pays homage to the M2B car and marks the team's evolution over six decades.
McLaren is rolling back the years with a fresh livery for the British Grand Prix, drawing inspiration from their iconic 1966 debut in Formula 1. This weekend, they're swapping their usual eye-catching papaya for a predominantly white design, reminiscent of the McLaren M2B, the car that marked their entry into F1. It was in that same season that Bruce McLaren scored the team's first point at the British Grand Prix.
This nostalgic nod to the past also highlights the team's journey over the last 60 years. Earlier this year, McLaren celebrated their 1000th Grand Prix in Monaco with a special orange-and-black scheme, showcasing their rich history and evolution.
For fans eager to see this retro look, photos of McLaren's Silverstone livery can be found in the gallery at the top of the page. It's a fitting tribute as McLaren takes to the track at Silverstone, bringing a bit of history to the modern era.
