McLaren MP4/4 — Red Tyres

The McLaren MP4/4 is the most-celebrated chassis in Formula 1 history. The 1988 season saw it take 15 wins from 16 races, a record nobody has touched since, with Senna and Prost in the seats. This A2 piece is drawn in pencil first, then hand-pulled across multiple screens, picking out the wheels and rubber in fluorescent red against a clean black-and-white silhouette.

Why this piece
The MP4/4 is the chassis every modern F1 designer measures against. This print takes the silhouette and reduces it to its component lines, then loads the surface with the fluorescent red of a championship-winning car at full song.

A gift for the Formula 1 fan
If you're shopping for a gift for a Formula 1-obsessed husband, brother, father or friend, a hand-pulled one-of-one screen print is the kind of present that the recipient frames and keeps. Every piece is unique, signed by the artist, and will never be reprinted in this colourway.
