McLaren F1 Team 2026 Season Guide
MCL40 starts a new rules era with Mercedes power
McLaren's MCL40 is built in Woking and uses the 2026 Mercedes power unit. After winning the 2024 and 2025 constructors' titles, the key fan question is how quickly the team has translated a championship-winning organisation into the smaller, lighter car and much more electric new power-unit formula.
Norris and Piastri remain one of F1's strongest driver combinations
Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri both know how to win and both have years of continuity inside McLaren. Their side-by-side results make this page especially useful: compare poles, opening laps, tyre management and points without losing sight of what their combined score means for the constructors' fight.
McLaren blends deep history with a modern title-winning rebuild
Founded by Bruce McLaren and racing in F1 since 1966, the team is associated with champions including Ayrton Senna, Alain Prost, Mika Häkkinen and Lewis Hamilton. Its recent return to constructors' title success makes 2026 a defence of momentum, not simply another rebuilding season.
