Lando Norris has designed his own McLaren Artura

McLaren has set Lando Norris on a mission to design his ultimate Artura. It seems like a reasonable idea, the rising Formula 1 star ought to know a thing or two about cool McLarens, and what car enthusiast doesn’t jump at the idea to have a bit of a play with a car configurator?

It’s not been long since we had to wave goodbye to the Artura here at Goodwood and we absolutely adored our time with the car, so we have to admit this video has made us pretty jealous. It’s interesting all the same to see how McLaren’s most famous employee would spec his own.

He’s gone blue… fair enough. Black wheels... fine. Yellow calipers? Somebody restrain this man. His decision to tick every possible carbon-fibre addition is less surprising, considering his office is made out of the stuff.

What do you think? Has he nailed it? Let us know how you would you build yours. We suspect a certain social media executive here at GRR, who is probably best described as ‘obsessed’ with Lando Norris, will probably agree wholeheartedly with his choices.

You can watch the video showcasing Lando's thought process here.
