The McLaren team unveiled the look of its car for the 2022 Formula 1 season, the first with new technical rules that will allow cars to follow each other without being affected by dirty air so much.

The team showed the world what its MCL36 looks like after 8:00 p.m. in Spain in a presentation held at the McLaren Technology Center in Woking, broadcast on its YouTube channel.
His two regular drivers, Daniel Ricciardo and Lando Norris, were present there, the latter with an even bigger smile after having signed a four-year renewal with the English, which makes him the member of the current grid with the longest contract, until 2025, and only Charles Leclerc, Esteban Ocon and Valtteri Bottas (2024) come close.
The duo formed by the Australian and the British will want to return to the positions of honor at the end of the year, and will try to return the glory that has been eluding them since 2008, when Lewis Hamilton won the world title in the last Grand Prix of the campaign.
McLaren becomes the fourth team to present its car for the course that will begin on March 20, when the traffic lights on the main straight of the Bahrain Grand Prix go out. However, the papaya team, like the rest of the teams, will have three days of pre-season testing at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya starting on February 23, and another three days just one week before the inaugural event on the same circuit as Shakir.
