Zak is working hard on the marketing side as well, but Mastercard, now T-Mobile, I hope our car does not look like Disneyland next year, even though if it is fast and winning races, I would not care at all about the looks of it, but still :)

From today's press release I understood that T-mobile will be only for US races (COTA and Las Vegas for 2024) and also Miami starting 2025. So nothing new for McLaren approach since Zak arrived. We have some "local" sponsors almost every year (7-Eleven for Holland this year or Asia in the past, Shilla Duty Free for Singapore, Sobeyr or Workday for Canada, QTR for Australia, Cisco on sidepods, DP World for RW and Oxxo for FW in China :roll: etc).

But indeed we have a lot of sponsors :D

There’s talk that Mastercard will make its first appearance in the USA…. Maybe a chrome livery to ‘welcome’ them to the team?
Just a fan's point of view

A lot of those that you mentioned are BAT using their space to promote their partners when nicotine product advertising is banned.

Chrome livery is indeed back this weekend.

Mainly just replacing the black carbon sections so still quite papaya!

Not really from what I know: 7-Eleven is a supermarket/retailer, DP World is a Dubai based port logistic, Cisco is comm corporate, Shilla DutyFree is a company linked with Samsung operating duty free shops in Singapore aiport, Workday is a HR platform etc. So BAT area on the car is less evident vs last years. Also our main sponsor are this season Google (with chrome and android) and OKX. BAT has the velo/vuse space and where tobacco advertising is banned, probably McLaren has the freedom to replace it with other sponsors.
Anyway, in comparison with 2017, 2018, when our car was almost empty, now we can not complain about lack of sponsorship. Zak did his magic :))
