McLaren present spectacular one-off livery for Abu Dhabi GP

There will be a distinctive new look on show from McLaren at the season-closing Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.

McLaren have unveiled a striking one-off livery for the 2021 F1 season finale, the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. The team and partner BAT's brand Vuse revealed the special look, which was designed by UAE-based artist Rabab Tantawy as part of the Driven by Change campaign. Driven by Change offers a platform for emerging creatives to showcase their work to a global audience through motorsport. Tantawy's artwork was inspired by her passion for art and representing togetherness, and was created together with automotive media designer Davide Virdis. The design - which will run on Lando Norris and Daniel Ricciardo's cars throughout the weekend in Abu Dhabi - features Tantawy's distinctive Nubian Series blended with the famous papaya and blue colours of McLaren. This also marks the first time that a female artist from the Middle East has designed a bespoke Formula 1 livery. Watch the design being unveiled in the video below!
