What happened: McLaren have unveiled a special livery for the British Grand Prix at Silverstone, drawing inspiration from the McLaren M2B, the team's first-ever Formula 1 car. The one-off design ties the current car's look back to the marque's origins on home soil.

Why it matters: Home-race liveries have become a marketing centerpiece for F1 teams, and for McLaren the British Grand Prix carries extra weight as a British constructor racing in front of home fans. The M2B callback continues a run of heritage-themed presentations from the team, following their earlier tribute to the historic M2B around Monaco.

What to watch: Watch for how the livery looks on track once running begins at Silverstone, and whether the heritage design carries into McLaren's British Grand Prix weekend performance.
