About this deal

As you can see, the finished structure reduces the range of motion, but again, this is to be expected. Perhaps I’m biased, because I’m more of a rugged vehicle person, but it feels weird to have spent such a significant portion of the build on suspension to have it be so limited.

Sixty years ago, New Zealand-born racer, engineer and visionary Bruce McLaren set-up the racing team in England that remains one of the world’s most successful names in motorsport. McLaren is the only team to have won the ‘Triple Crown of Motorsport’ with race victories in the Monaco Grand Prix, Indianapolis 500 and Le Mans 24 Hours. In the 1960s, Bruce himself unveiled the M6GT, the first ever McLaren supercar.

And, naturally, you can’t help but play with the differential too, just to make sure it works (wink). Sadly, depending on how you look at it, this is the most complicated part of the whole 18+ set. In fact, aside from the typical issues of uncooperative pins, this set really isn’t much of a challenge or terribly interesting/exciting from a mechanical standpoint at all.

Founded in 1963 by racer, engineer and entrepreneur Bruce McLaren, the Group is formed of McLaren Automotive, which hand-builds lightweight supercars; and a majority stake in McLaren Racing which competes in the Formula 1 World Championship and INDYCAR in the US. Hit top speed in the LEGO® Speed Champions version of the super-powerful McLaren P1™! This race-ready, buildable vehicle has all the authentic details of McLaren’s ultimate hybrid supercar. Attach the stylish wheel trims and use the wrench to prep your car. Put on the driver’s helmet and get set to speed away. Weave around the cones–and make sure you stay inside the curb. Test your skills in thrilling LEGO® Speed Champions races against your friends! Includes a driver minifigure with assorted accessories.McLaren Automotive also chooses to partner with like-minded, world-leading companies and organisations who push the boundaries in their respective fields. These include Ashurst, Bowers & Wilkins, Gulf, InfiniteWorld, Pirelli, Richard Mille, Plan International and Tumi. The company’s product portfolio of GT, supercar, Motorsport and Ultimate models are retailed through over 100 retailers in over 40 markets around the world. Then in 1993 it designed and built the McLaren F1 road car - the company has not built a car without a carbon fibre chassis since. As part of the Ultimate Series, McLaren was the first to deliver a hybrid hypercar, the McLaren P1™. In 2016, it announced a new hybrid hyper-GT and confirmed in 2018 that the next Ultimate car would be the Speedtail. Compare my inventory to #42056 if using the set.
