McLaren Racing has unveiled a special Gulf Oil International livery that its F1 cars will run at this weekend’s Monaco Grand Prix. McLaren and Gulf revived their relationship in July 2020 and the striking blue and orange theme will be featured not only one the MCL35M race cars driven by Lando Norris and Daniel Ricciardo but the colors will also adorn the drivers race suits and the race team kit. Norris and Ricciardo will also wear one-off helmets with bespoke retro designs that will later be raffled off for the team’s mental health charity partner, Mind.
The Monaco Grand Prix didn’t feature
during last year’s F1 season because of the coronavirus pandemic. Ricciardo is
a previous race-winner at the circuit and will no doubt be looking to close the
gap to Norris who has outperformed him this season.
