The McLaren Racing Motion Simulator

McLaren Racing Motion Simulator mates Precision and Immersion

Motorsport simulation just leaped forward with the introduction of the McLaren Racing Motion Simulator, a collaboration between Racing Unleashed and the F1 McLaren Racing team. Designed to deliver an unparalleled racing experience, this simulator combines the technical prowess of McLaren Racing with Racing Unleashed’s pioneering simulation technologies, creating a uniquely realistic environment for both sim racers and professional drivers.

Produced at Racing Unleashed’s elite manufacturing facility in Maranello, Italy, the McLaren Racing Motion Simulator features a crafted carbon fiber chassis, providing rigidity as well as precise feedback, translating every minor vibration and movement into realistic sensations. The simulator is enhanced by distinctive liveries inspired directly by McLaren’s own racing heritage, immersing you fully in the atmosphere of professional Formula 1 racing.

The simulator features a replica of the McLaren MCL38 steering wheel. This detailed reproduction enables you to feel every corner entry, apex precision, and throttle nuance as vividly as McLaren’s Lando Norris himself would experience on the circuit.

McLaren Racing Motion Simulator: Technology and Authenticity

Featuring a Three Degrees of Freedom (3DOF) motion system, the McLaren Racing Motion Simulator replicates pitch, roll, and heave movements, resulting in a strikingly authentic driving sensation. Active seatbelts tighten dynamically during braking and cornering, further enhancing the realism and immersion. Adaptive driving assistance and custom-fit cockpits ensure comfort, control, and accessibility for every user, whether professional racer or passionate enthusiast.

Significantly, the simulator will hold a permanent place of honor within the McLaren Shadow Studio at McLaren’s esteemed Technology Centre (MTC) in Woking, UK. Florian Hürlimann, CTO of Racing Unleashed, remarked, “The simulator’s placement at the McLaren Technology Centre is a great honor and reflects McLaren Racing’s commitment to innovation and its belief in the potential of this project.” Matt Dennington, McLaren Racing’s Co-Chief Commercial Officer, echoed this enthusiasm, adding, “It’s an exciting proposition to be replicating our race cars for the sim space and give users an extremely accurate representation of what it is like to drive the real thing.”

Combining Racing Unleashed’s “Most Engaging Motorsport” mission with McLaren’s “Forever Forward” philosophy, the McLaren Racing Motion Simulator elevates motorsport simulation to new levels. Available now to racing enthusiasts and private clients alike, the simulator provides a genuinely remarkable driving experience.
