"Formula 1 and McLaren have a truly worldwide audience, and we recognise that our return to the track is a huge opportunity for our sport to make an impact at a global level, helping those most affected by the Covid-19 crisis and standing together against the blight of racism, as we work steadfastly to build an even stronger culture of diversity, inclusion and equality in our team and our sport."

Another factor of the F1 initiative, is to celebrate the key workers who have been on the front line of the Covid-19 pandemic.

In reference to this, McLaren has placed a large rainbow across the halo on both cars, putting this visual representation of thanks centre stage any time onboard footage is used.
