McLaren Sportscars
Quote:
Mclaren have spoken about single make series before, and this does look closest to a cup class style of car The idea of a single make series is discussed earlier on in this thread I do agree this is not GTE or GT3, the 720s will be the new car for that, And the 570s GT4 is new enough not to need replacing Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Most likely a mule. Makes no sense to develop a racing version of this, for McLaren outdated, car.
Other possibility is that it will be a special version of the 675LT. Maybe even track day only. |

McLaren parted away with CRS. That is a good first step.

McLaren chiefs have confirmed they are “working on a plan” to go racing with the new Senna supercar, providing a series can be found for which it would be eligible.
In this moment that car could be racing in GTE, I suppose the new hypercar McLaren BP23 will be ready for the future LM GT1/GTproto in 2020 or 2021. https://www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/m...med-brand-boss |

I hope they keep that thing away from any racing series we see now. It's an abomination imo. Not worthy of the name Senna either. If they're going to race it, I bet they have it in some one-make series with other customers.

Too true. Not just them though. I appreciate the site's work but at times they site sources when they are really just another website

OK it looks like it's not a GTE Car it was the GTR version of the Senna - http://www.dailysportscar.com/2018/0...-launched.html
It looks like there are confirmed plans for the Senna GT-R to race. |

Ben Barnicoat, Paul Holton, and Joe Osborne join Rob Bell as McLaren Automotive factory drivers for 2018.
Worth noting they are now contracted to McLaren Automotive directly and not via CRS GT as Parente, and Ledogar were last year. Looks like Come Ledogar is no longer a factory driver, and we knew Parente had gone. Ledogar did say he was working on running with Garage 59 in Blancpain this year anyway. Holton and Osborne are great additions I think, curious if Holton will be running in Blancpain Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

I'd be surprised if McLaren didn't re-sign Parente and Ledogar now that the GT operation has gone in house. Unless Parente or Ledogar wanted out for whatever reasons. Glad to hear that Osbourne and Barnicoat have been picked up as they are quality drivers.

Fair enough. Parente really enjoyed PWC so if McLaren werent going to return then maybe a drive with KPAX again was too good to ignore even if was without McLaren. Parente is top shelf so he wouldnt be long without a drive in either case.
