McLaren dedicated a poster to the anniversary victory double

      A week ago, Oscar Piastri won the Chinese Grand Prix, and Lando Norris, his team-mate, crossed the finish line in second, and it was the 50th anniversary victory double in McLaren history.

      It is symbolic that the beginning of this was laid by Bruce McLaren himself almost 57 years ago: on September 22, 1968, Danny Hulme, his compatriot, teammate and at that time the reigning world champion, won the Canadian Grand Prix in a McLaren M-7A with a Ford Cosworth engine, and the founder of the team took 2nd place in the same car. orange in color.

      It was the first double success of the team, which was then officially called Bruce McLaren Motor Racing, and now its drivers have occupied the top two steps of the podium for the 50th time. Of course, it was worth noting, and today the McLaren press service shared a very bright poster dedicated to this event.

      "We remember last Sunday, we celebrate the successes of all the riders who contributed to our landmark achievement!" was the comment to the poster, which instantly garnered tens of thousands of likes and many comments.

      Some fans immediately noticed Ayrton Senna, while others first found portraits of Alain Prost, Niki Lauda, Kimi Raikkonen, Juan Pablo Montoya and Daniel Ricciardo on the poster. And for some, the most important thing is that in the foreground we see the main characters of the Chinese Grand Prix - Oscar and Lando, who are considered the favorites of the season for a reason.

      But in general, this poster can be studied for quite a long time – a good reason to remember the history of McLaren and the entire Formula 1.
