The P1 GTR will be the most track-tailored and most powerful model produced by McLaren Special Operations to date, with a clear target even more focused than its road-going sibling: to be the best driver’s car in the world on track. With even greater emphasis on aerodynamic performance through the dramatic bodywork, the McLaren P1 GTR will also feature race-proven slick tyres, a fixed ride height, enhanced power delivery from the IPAS powertrain and Formula 1-derived DRS from the large, fixed rear wing and an ERS-style push-to-pass system, all combining to offer the ultimate track experience.

Based on the McLaren P1™ road car, the track-focused McLaren P1™ GTR has better aerodynamically efficiency for a more driver engagement on track. The front track of the McLaren P1 GTR design concept has been increased by 80mm and re-profiled low temperature radiator ducts seamlessly flow into the leading edge of the aggressively flared front wheel-arches.

A set of lightweight 19-inch motorsport alloy wheels are fitted – 10.5-inches wide at the front, 13-inches at the rear – and are secured into place with quick-release centre locking nuts.

Launching with the McLaren P1 GTR design concept is the bespoke McLaren P1 GTR  driver programme  – the ultra-exclusive ownership programme, which will include specialist driver training, human performance and access to the McLaren racing simulator, and which is designed to prepare each driver mentally and physically to fully exploit the abilities of the McLaren P1 GTR. The programme will be completely bespoke, with each individual having a fully-tailored experience.

The McLaren P1 GTR driver programme promises to be one of the most exclusive owners’ clubs in the world and will offer an unrivalled ownership experience.  Every experience will be unique and tailored specifically, providing a full immersion into McLaren, and gaining access to the experiences and resources which have helped develop and train Formula 1™ champions.
