Following a successful 2005 season in which McLaren-Mercedes finished 2nd in the Formula One World Constructors’ Championship, with drivers Kimi Räikkönen finishing 2nd and Juan Pablo Montoya 4th in the Drivers’ Championship, the team looked to further build on those achievements going into 2006.

McLaren-Mercedes retained both team drivers for the 2006 season, with team sponsorship moving to Emirates and Johnnie Walker.

With the advent of a new season came a new car, the MP4-21.

Designed by Adrian Newey, Tim Goss, Peter Prodromou, Paddy Lowe, and Mike Caughlan, the MP4-21 featured new aero with a familiar “needle-nose” front reminiscent of the 2004 MP4-19; the switch to a V-8 power unit for the 2006 season also permitted a more compact rear end treatment.

In total, Mercedes-McLaren claimed that 90% of the car had been redesigned or refined compared to the previous season’s MP4-20.

This new model made its on-track debut in January 2006 during testing at Spain’s Circuit de Barcelona...
