We entered esports in 2017 to explore the performance opportunities that exist at the intersection of gaming and real-world racing. Because, unlike any other sport, the transference of skills between virtual and real racing are both direct and profound. Our name comes from how our esports activities shadow those of our racing team on the track. Since the formation of McLaren Racing in 1963, McLaren has been pioneering and innovating in the competitive world of Formula 1, forging a formidable reputation which has seen the racing team win 20 World Championships and over 180 races.
