Gallery: McLaren unveils statue of founder on anniversary of death
McLaren has unveiled a life-size statue of the late Bruce McLaren on the 50th anniversary of his passing. New Zealander Bruce founded McLaren Motor Racing Ltd in 1963, which has morphed into the McLaren we know today which has expanded from its motor racing heritage to include an automotive and technology brand. A statue was unveiled at the McLaren Technology Centre (MTC) in Woking on Tuesday by his daughter, Amanda, who lit 50 candles in his memory during a private ceremony. ADVERTISEMENT The candles were placed around the 1970 McLaren M8D, the ‘sister car' of the M8D in which Bruce lost his life following a crash at the Goodwood Circuit on 2 June 1970.
