May 16, 2023

Carbon everywhere

The 23-year-old F1 driver chose a unique specification for his car, heavily influenced by his personal branding. Norris’ copy is instantly recognizable by its Gloss Blue Tint Visual Carbon Fibre exterior with contrasting Satin Visual Carbon Fibre details. The supercar also features satin black wheels and Lando Yellow-colored calipers.

Norris’ logo, among others, is affixed under the active rear wing. The wing also features MSO branding in Gloss Blue Tint Visual Carbon Fibre on a Satin Carbon Fibre insert at the top.

Three Carbon Fibre Exterior Upgrade Packs

Other exterior features include the three Carbon Fibre Exterior Upgrade Packs, consisting of a front splitter, front fenders and rear diffuser, air intakes, side skirts and wing mirrors. The car also has a Stealth package for a discreet finish to the rear wing mechanism and the signature quad exit of the titanium exhaust.

The interior continues Lando’s color scheme. The Carbon Fibre racing seats come in navy blue with Napier stitching. In addition, the headrests are embroidered with Lando’s personal “LN4” branding. There are also navy blue Alcantara and Napier stitching on the door and dashboard trim, and the door appliques have a painted white stripe.

Personalization is complete with a key finished in Gloss Blue Tint Visual Carbon Fiber with Lando Graphic in Lando Yellow.

765 copies

The McLaren 765LT is the latest model to bear the hallowed Longtail name, first associated with the legendary McLaren F1 GTR in 1997. The 765LT is powered by a 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 engine with 765 hp and 800 Nm, good for a blistering 0-200 km/h acceleration time of just seven seconds. Only 765 examples of the car will be built. All of those have already been sold, including one to Lando.

“Better than I could have imagined.”

“I’ve been able to drive many different McLarens, but this is the first car I’ve designed. I’m a big fan of carbon, the more carbon I can have the better, but I didn’t want my logo everywhere. I wanted something more subtle and MSO did a fantastic job of making my vision a reality. My first custom car was designed by McLaren and MSO. It is better than I could have imagined,” stated Lando Norris, McLaren Formula One driver.
