The Monaco grid will have a 'piece of culture' this weekend, argues Zak Brown regarding McLaren's newly unveiled specially designed retro-livery, which pays homage to Gulf Oil as well as McLaren's long history in motorsport.
“This will be McLaren’s homage to Gulf’s celebrated race car design", Brown begins opposite the Official website of Formula 1. "We’re enormous fans of brave and bold design, and the striking Gulf blue is among the most loved liveries in racing, a celebrated piece of culture which transcends the world of motorsport."
Importance of design
Brown continued: "Design has always been important to McLaren – you see this in everything we do from our return to papaya to our stunning headquarters, the McLaren Technology Centre"
"We’re excited to exhibit this as a team and celebrate our proud association with Gulf in Monaco", the American businessman concluded.
