During The ICE in St. Moritz I have filmed this $20M McLaren F1 GTR.
Although the McLaren F1 was originally conceived as the ultimate road-going supercar, it soon attracted the attention of ambitious privateers eager to take it racing. Responding to this demand, McLaren produced nine F1 GTR for the 1995 GT1 season, ensuring eligibility for the 24 Hours of Le Mans – where the F1 GTRs finished first, third, fourth and fifth, an unprecedented achievement for a newcomer
– and other international GT events. Encouraged by this success, McLaren developed an evolved F1 GTR for the 1996 season, with a 15-millimetre reduction in front ride height, a longer spoiler, a new magnesium gearbox. Weight dropped improving agility and braking performance. The 1996 GTR became the fastest of all F1 derivatives. Among the
1996 GTR, chassis R13 stands as one of the most celebrated examples. It was campaigned by Team Lark McLaren, a collaboration between McLaren Chief Ron Dennis and Japanese entrant Kazumichi Goh, with sponsorship from Philip Morris under its Lark cigarette brand. The team fielded two cars, 13R (handled by Naoki Hattori and a young Ralf Schumacher) and 14R, in a striking pink and grey livery, designed for competition in the 1996 AlI-Japan GT Championship. The F1 GTRs claimed four victories, taking three wins with 13R at Suzuka, Sugo and Mine. At the end of the 1996 season, chassis 13R was sold to a Japanese collector and displayed for many years in a private museum in Nagoya. In 2005, it was exported from Japan and later underwent a McLaren-supervised conversion for road use. The car subsequently entered private collections in Australia, Germany, and the United Kingdom.
