As the guys on the grid down tools for this year’s obligatory summer break, we’ve got a few tips to help McLaren fans across the globe survive the shutdown in true F1 style. 
 

1.     Play Golf. Only joking.

 

2.    Play a board game. Or get the Scalextric out the loft.

 

3.   Try cooking. Tip: have warm-up and qualifying rounds before serving. Finish with donuts, obviously.

 

4.   Dust off the VHS and watch Donington '93 on repeat. #ClassicF1

 

5.   Read. Suggested titles: Tyler Alexander’s recent book, ‘A Life and Times’.

 

6.   Watch a film. Senna or Rush are obligatory must-sees for #F1 aficionados.

 

7.   Swap watching four-wheel racing for two. 

 

8.   Do a little summer sale shopping.... Visit the McLaren Store to browse all of our summer sale items.
