MCLAREN have become the latest team to unveil Austin livery as they bring back Chrome design.

The British motor racing team are the third Formula 1 team to present a special design for the US Grand Prix weekend, following on from reveals by fellow outfits Haas and Alpine.

In collaboration with team partner Google, McLaren have created a second edition of their striking Chrome-inspired livery, which was first reimagined at Silverstone in 2023.

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’, according to the official Formula 1 website. 

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.

McLaren approach the final six rounds with a 41-point lead over Red Bull in the constructors’ standings, while Norris is 52 points behind Max Verstappen as the battle for the drivers’ championship heats up.

Bahrain’s sovereign wealth fund Mumtalakat is a key stakeholder in McLaren Automotive.
