The McLaren MP4/2 was one of the most successful racing cars, securing the most victories in the history of Formula 1.

In 1985, the MP4/2B made its debut equipped with a TAG Porsche engine, enhanced by two superchargers capable of attaining 850 hp and displaying aerodynamic designs less showy than the previous cars, and which were also compliant with the evolving new regulations of the period.

The project’s engineering and design achievements were ratified by victory in the constructors’ and drivers’ world championships, due in equal measure to the extraordinary talent of driver Alain Prost. In 1986, the project was further enhanced by the MP4/2C version and Alain Prost was again confirmed as world champion. During this new season he was joined by another great Formula 1 talent, the Finn Keke Rosberg. The McLaren MP4/2 has a special place in the hearts and minds of Formula 1 enthusiasts and fans, winning three drivers' championships and two constructors' championships.
