VIDEO: The story behind the McLaren MP4/1
In 1981, McLaren introduced the MP4/1, the world's first carbon fibre Formula 1 car. The introduction of the carbon-fibre MP4 changed the face not only of racing but of supercar design to follow. Since then McLaren hasn't made a race or road car that hasn't been based around a carbon monocoque chassis. John Barnard, the car's designer, speaks to McLaren Automotive about the story of the MP4/1. Source: McLaren Automotive VIDEO: The story behind the McLaren MP4/1 was last modified: May 3rd, 2016
