THE WINS: It is not until you stop and count up McLaren’s victories since it’s inception in 1964, that you truly appreciate the breadth, depth and footprint of this amazing marque in motorsport. No other racing team can lay claim to successes across such a vast spectrum: McLaren has been victorious in Formula 1, Formula 2, Formula 3, Formula A/5000, Indycars, Can-Am and Interserie sportscars as well as at the Le Mans 24-hour race. This 320-page, large-format, hard-back landmark book does what no other book has sought to achieve, painstakingly recording all of McLaren’s contemporary victories from 1964 until 2011. Produced with the full co-operation and endorsement of the McLaren Group,
McLaren The Wins is beautifully laid out, with period photography and race results depicting each and every one of the 636 wins, up to and including the 2011 Chinese GP. This superb 320-page book spans six momentous decades from 1964 to the present day.
THE CARS: The McLaren marque has an illustrious history spanning more than six decades at the forefront of both motor racing and road car design. This third edition of McLaren The Cars, first released by award-winning publisher Coterie Press in 2009 is, without doubt, one of the greatest-ever titles on a single marque produced by an independent publisher. This expanded edition of ‘The Cars’ covers every model produced by McLaren between 1964 and 2012. It features each and every race car, road car, and even a ‘soapbox’, listed in chronological order from the McLaren M1A in 1964, through to the 2011 MP4-26 Formula One car as well as the stunning new MP4-12C supercar, which will hit the roads in the hands of the first lucky customers in 2012. With in-depth text on each car, a foreword by Ron Dennis, chapter introductions by McLaren stars Emerson Fittipaldi, Niki Lauda, Alain Prost, Mika Häkkinen and Lewis Hamilton, as well as a comprehensive appendix section covering race results and specifications, this 320-page tome is far more than just a picture book. Produced with the full co-operation and endorsement of the McLaren Group, it is the definitive history of all the McLaren cars.
