McLaren Formula 1 Team reveals new livery

The McLaren Formula 1 Team have revealed a new livery that will be carried on their 2024 challenger by Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri in the upcoming FIA Formula 1 World Championship.

Driven by McLaren’s heritage, the 2024 livery carries the popular colours of papaya and anthracite.

The distinctive colourway also has fans at the core following successful livery enhancements throughout the 2023 season.

Fan-favourite elements from OKX’s Stealth Mode livery have been embedded alongside the use of chrome in the driver numbers, which was more widely carried by the team from 2006 to 2014 before making a return at the 2023 British Grand Prix with Google.

It will also feature some of the world’s biggest brands and organisations as McLaren’s partners continue to support the team both on and off track.

Andrea Stella will lead the team for the second year after being appointed Team Principal in December 2022.

Zak Brown, CEO at McLaren Racing, said:  “We’re delighted to launch our 2024 Formula 1 livery ahead of the new season. The design looks awesome, and I can’t wait to go racing and see it come to life on track next month.

“We didn’t start 2023 as we wanted but Andrea and the team did a great job following the organisational restructure coming into action, and the hard work continues as we carry that excellent momentum into the 2024 campaign.”

The Italian’s F1 Technical Executive team is completed by new arrivals Rob Marshall, Technical Director, Engineering and Design and David Sanchez, Technical Director, Car Concept and Performance.

Both Marshall and Sanchez joined the team in January 2024.

McLaren’s 2024 challenger, the MCL38, will be revealed on 14 February before heading to pre-season testing at the Bahrain International Circuit on 21-23 February ahead of the opening race of the season at the 2024 Bahrain Grand Prix on 2 March.

“I’m confident the exciting pairing of Lando and Oscar will continue to create more mega memories together after such an impressive second half of last year which saw the team finish fourth in the championship with 302 points.

“These are all steps forward from the year before as we continue our mission to push and compete at the front of the grid,” added Brown.

Andrea Stella, Team Principal, McLaren F1, said: “With our new infrastructure upgrades and people in place, we must continue to elevate our standards and incorporate high performance in everything we do.

“The 2024 livery looks great and I’m looking forward to seeing our exciting driver line-up of Lando and Oscar take the MCL38 to track next month.

“The support of our commercial partners and incredible fans will play an important part as we continue to remain united together as a team throughout the upcoming season.

“We still have a lot of work to do before we hit the track for the first race in Bahrain, but we’re all focused on delivering against our objectives and starting the season on the right footing.”
