Featuring in their ‘Chrome Shines Again’ campaign, the livery is a nod to some of McLaren’s former cars, including “a modern twist to represent the team’s enduring legacy, with the enhanced chrome representing the two brands’ pursuit of innovative design”.

In addition to Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri’s cars, touches of chrome will be present on the drivers’ race suits throughout the event at the Circuit of The Americas.
