  • McLaren Racing’s competitor for the 2022 FIA Formula 1 World Championship season, the McLaren MCL36 was designed to maintain the team’s trajectory back to the top of the motor racing pyramid. In the hands of Lando Norris and Daniel Ricciardo, the MCL36 was McLaren’s response to the new era of regulations that aimed to provide closer racing and more on-track action for fans. 

    Designed under the leadership of Technical Director James Key and produced by the team in Woking, led by Operations Director Piers Thynne, the MCL36 featured several striking and dramatic changes compared to the MCL35M. The return of ground-effect to Formula 1 changed the fundamental philosophy of the car and was part of new regulations aimed at improving racing by reducing the amount of disrupted airflow generated by the cars. The MCL36 was powered by the Mercedes-AMG F1 M13 E Performance which was integrated into the McLaren chassis and gearbox with support from Mercedes AMG High Performance Powertrains in Brixworth, UK.

    The colours first carried by the team in the 1960s with team founder Bruce McLaren were retained for the 2022 season, with fan favourite Papaya continuing to lead the livery. Having debuted on the MCL35M’s Monaco livery in 2021 to fan acclaim, the bold Fluro Papaya featured on the MCL36 for the 2022 season, accented by New Blue.

    Lando Norris entered his fourth season in Formula 1 with McLaren and looked to build on an exceptional 2021 season during which he achieved four podium finishes and claimed his first pole position. McLaren’s Daniel Ricciardo entered his 12th season in Formula 1, and his second with McLaren. Pre-season testing at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya gave the team optimism for a competitive season, seemingly avoiding the 'porpoising' issues reported by other teams. However, due to mechanical issues, the team lost valuable pre-season optimisation time, with some of these frustratingly continuing throughout the season. The car did provide some key moments of pace on the track at a few of the European races such as the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix and Hungarian Grand Prix, but this was not enough to finish above rivals, Alpine. Overall, the McLaren MCL36 was a reliable challenger, suffering only five retirements all year and covering 91.96% of the scheduled race distance.

    McLaren ultimately lost their season-long battle with Alpine for fourth in the Constructors' Championship, as Norris scored points at seventeen races, and teammate Ricciardo at seven. Norris did provide McLaren's highest point of the season, earning the team's 494th podium finish with a third place at the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix in Imola.

    Overall, the MCL36 earned one podium, two fastest laps and scored 159 points, earning McLaren fifth place in the Constructors' Championship. Norris secured seventh place in the Drivers' Championship standings with 122 points, ahead of both Alpine drivers, whilst Ricciardo earned eleventh place with 37 points. Between the two drivers, 2,448 laps were driven, 440 tyres used and 805 pitstops taken across the 22 races in the season.

    This fine full-scale replica is of the McLaren MCL36 steering wheel, as used by Lando Norris and Daniel Ricciardo during the 2022 FIA Formula 1 World Championship season will be handcrafted and finished in our workshops with the cooperation, assistance and endorsement of McLaren Racing. Each replica is complete with working buttons, switches and paddles and has been handcrafted utilising original CAD data supplied directly by McLaren Racing. It has undergone strict scrutiny by both the design and engineering teams to ensure complete accuracy in both weight and look and feel.

    IMPORTANT NOTE:
    • A PAYMENT AUTHORISATION FOR THE OUTSTANDING AMOUNT OF YOUR PURCHASE WILL BE HELD DURING THE FULL PLAN PERIOD as security. This hold will be charged ONLY in the event a monthly payment is declined (the authorisation hold might appear as "Pending" on your credit card bill).
    • You must maintain a sufficient "Required Available Credit" amount on your credit card for both the full outstanding amount of your purchase and the monthly payment during the full period of the plan.
    • Your credit card issuer may charge you interest on amounts charged to your credit card unless you pay Your credit card balance in full each month.
    • In case we do not manage to reauthorize the remaining amount of the transaction, you will receive a notice email. In that case, you will have to promptly update your credit card details. In case your bank still refuses to reauthorize the outstanding amount, we will have to charge the full outstanding amount of the transaction at once from your credit card.
    Splitit offers you a flexible way of paying for items in instalments, completely interest-free, by reserving the available line of credit on your credit card. Then, each month, according to your payment plan, Splitit collects the instalment amount and reissues the authorisation request for the remaining balance.

    It is important to note that payments are still charged on your existing credit card. Splitit simply provides you the method to do this and information about the instalments. Here is an example of how the service works for a customer buying a £2,000 model in 4 instalments of £500 each:

    Splitit obtains authorisation from the credit card company for the full purchase amount of £2,000. This is not a charge on the card; it is simply reserving £2,000 from the customer’s line of credit.
    - The credit card company then charges the customer £500 for the first payment.
    - During the second month, Splitit requests authorisation for the outstanding purchase amount of £1,500, and charges the customer the second installment of £500.
    - This authorisation and charge process continues until the full £2,000 is collected - in this case, for 4 months.
    No, this is an interest-free payment method with no additional fixed fees, service fees, interest or hidden fees of any kind.
    No, your item will be processed after the first initial instalment and delivered as normal upon passing our Quality Control check at Head Office.
    - You can pay using Splitit with a valid Mastercard or Visa
    Nothing, no credit check is required if you use a Splitit instalment plan and there is no impact on your credit score. All the bank sees is the individual instalment charges each month. If one of your payment authorisations is declined, there is still no affect on your credit rating; it is simply a declined charge. The denial would simply accelerate payment of the remaining balance (unless you provide a different card which was not denied).
    You can pay using Splitit with a Mastercard or Visa. Debit cards, American Express and pre-paid cards are not accepted.
    The instalments appear on your statement as individual charge items with the name of 'Amalgam Collection'. These payments will appear monthly according to your instalment plan, with the same charge amount each time.
