McLaren continues 50th celebration as 3,000th 12C rolls of the line

In celebration of the team’s 50 years, McLaren staff joined together at the McLaren Technology Centre in Woking, England, to mark half a century of race winning, by one of the most successful names in motorsport. Mirroring the launch of the Vodafone McLaren Mercedes MP4-28 Formula 1™ car from earlier this year, the celebrations saw a parade of some of the most iconic race- and championship-winning McLarens from across the decades.

The celebrations were marked by current Vodafone McLaren Mercedes drivers Jenson Button and Sergio Perez, who took part in the display in the two latest models from McLaren Automotive. Perez arrived in the 3,000th production 12C – a 12C Spider finished in striking Volcano Yellow, while 2009 Formula 1™ world champion Jenson Button showcased the McLaren P1™ in front of the entire McLaren Group staff, dressed in Rocket Red t-shirts to honour the landmark occasion.
