McLaren unveils first one-off 2024 F1 livery for Japan GP
McLaren will race at the Suzuka event with a livery tweak by Japanese artist MILTZ on the MCL38s of Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri. The special livery showcases a dragon racing through the clouds, drawing inspiration from Japanese calligraphy of the Edo period. McLaren’s Driven by Change campaign, in collaboration with British American Tobacco’s Vuse brand, supports emerging creatives on a global scale through innovative artwork displayed on their Formula 1 cars. This initiative returns for its fourth season, celebrating the talents of undiscovered artists worldwide. MILTZ, the designer behind the unique livery, blends traditional Japanese calligraphy with modern art to represent the speed of a Formula 1 car in a captivating way. McLaren’s focus on showcasing creativity aligns with their recent successes on the racing circuit, where Norris and Piastri shone with a double podium finish at the 2023 Japanese Grand Prix, marking their return to form and setting the stage for another exciting race weekend at Suzuka.
