Yahoo Autos McLaren goes back to Chrome for British Grand Prix
McLaren has unveiled a special Google Chrome livery for the British Grand Prix this weekend that celebrates its last world championship victories.
In a throwback to the chrome designs that McLaren ran from 2007 to 2014, the team’s current livery has been updated with significant chrome additions alongside the papaya sections. McLaren’s last world title came in 2008 — the same year Google Chrome was launched — and is celebrated as part of its 60th anniversary at its home race at Silverstone.
“It’s no secret that racing fans love McLaren’s classic chrome livery,” McLaren Racing CEO Zak Brown said. “Google Chrome wanted to bring back elements of this iconic livery to celebrate our team’s history at the British Grand Prix, and we’re excited to be able to give our fans what they want.
“I’m sure this livery will bring back great memories for many of our fans, and I can’t wait to see it out on track at our home race.”
