McLaren Racing and the world-leading business news network, CNBC have announced a multi-year partnership extension which will see CNBC continue as an official partner of the McLaren Formula 1 team.

As part of the partnership, the CNBC brand will feature on the McLaren F1 driver overalls of Lando Norris and Daniel Ricciardo, and on the McLaren MCL35M Formula 1 race cars during 2021 and beyond.

Mark Waller, Chief Commercial Officer, McLaren Racing said: “Since 2018, CNBC has been a valued partner of our team and we have collaborated with real success to reinforce the power of the CNBC and McLaren brands across the global business and investor network.
