GALLERY: Check out McLaren's heritage-inspired livery for the British Grand Prix
McLaren have taken inspiration from their 1966 F1 car for their livery at this weekend's British Grand Prix.
McLaren have unveiled an eye-catching livery for this weekend's British Grand Prix, paying homage to their history with a heritage-inspired design.
The team will switch out their usual striking papaya for a primarily white livery, as first seen on the McLaren M2B when they joined F1 in 1966 – in the same season, founder Bruce McLaren scored their maiden point at the British Grand Prix.
Highlighting how much the team have evolved over the last six decades, the new look also builds on their milestone 1000th Grand Prix earlier this year in Monaco, where they ran a special orange-and-black colour scheme.
