With over 60 years as a leader in innovative technologies developed in Formula 1, McLaren is one of the companies most likely to deliver breakthrough automotive technologies that set new standards in lightweight supercar engineering. And it is with carbon fibre that McLaren’s innovative capabilities are strongly represented. McLaren is now approaching half a century as a world leader in this highly technical area of materials science, and continues to push the boundaries of what is possible.

Over the years, this has given rise to increasingly sophisticated simulation techniques.
