Page 1 of 1 McLaren revealed the new MCL38 a few days ahead of the only official test session for the 2024 Formula 1 World Championship. On the same day, it was given a brief shakedown at the Silverstone circuit.
Thanks to the stable regulations, the MCL38 is very much an evolution of the MCL60 that really came on song during the second half of the 2023 season. The development focused primarily on refining the complicated ground effect aerodynamics. The Mercedes-AMG F1 drivetrain was once again and drivers Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri were also retained.
Following the brief shakedown at Silverstone, the McLaren Racing team will switch the focus to Bahrain for the three-day test and subsequent season opening Grand Prix. Page 1 of 1
