On Sunday, McLaren tried to win two races 4,500 miles apart: F1's Monaco GP and IndyCar's Indianapolis 500.

Get to know Nolan Siegel, an Indianapolis 500 rookie who is in his first full-time IndyCar Series season with Arrow McLaren Racing.

This car was the team’s 1965 tyre-test hack — McLaren had signed a deal with Firestone prior to the inaugural season of 3-litre F1 (1966), Bruce’s first away from Cooper.

McLaren’s Papaya Orange race cars enjoyed success in the FIA’s Formula One World Championship and the Canadian-American Challenge Cup before heading to Indy in the late 1960s.

After testing the turbine-powered car designed by Lotus’ Colin Chapman, Clark felt sure he would win Indy again in 1968.

Around 50 of the cars were built and raced by McLaren and its customer teams. The first example, which remarkably has never been in a serious crash, recently paid a visit to Jay Leno's Garage.
