If teleportation was real, or if it was possible to be in two places at once, then the first thing we’d do is attend both the Monaco Grand Prix and the Indianapolis 500.

Sadly, neither is possible right now, but with thousands of you attending the two races every year, we can live out our dreams via the incredible Papaya Army. It’s two massive races on one mammoth weekend, and you documented it all on social media. Here’s the best of your reaction to our favourite day of the year.

It wouldn’t be Monaco with limited edition lids.

FRESH!

A short story…

Minor contact with the wall for Lando at the end of Q2. We’re pushing the limits.

The team are working to turn his car around to push even harder. 👊

Oscar unfortunately just misses out on Q3 in P11. Just 18 milliseconds behind Lando. Great effort. #MonacoGP 🇲🇨

— McLaren (@McLarenF1) May 27, 2023

Absolutely love that we're going to try fixing this.
Probably a huge ask, but at least we're going to try.

The tireless work of our garage crew helped us to secure 10th and 11th on the grid for Lando and Oscar, respectively. We also had four cars starting in the top 10 for the Indy 500.

Safe to say we woke up pretty happy on our favourite day of the year…

It's finally one of the best days of the year - May 28th!! The day I get to watch both the #MonacoGP and the #Indy500 and support my teams @McLarenF1 @ArrowMcLaren 🧡

The rain increased and the team acted to quickly to fit both cars with inters, performing an impressive double-stack and sending them back out to fight for points.

After a solid result in Monte Carlo, it was gutting to see our Indy 500 hopes end in the way they did, with Felix and Pato suffering crashes that dropped them from the front of the grid to the back. But we’ll be back stronger.

It was great to see you fighting for the win! Great effort from the whole team and good to see both Pato and Felix are okay after their crashes.
