- In today's episode, I'm continuing my tour of the MTC with McLaren CEO Zak Brown; but this time exploring deeper in to the vaults of the beautiful building.
Zak gives me a tour of McLaren's hidden F1 car collection, and I'm very privileged to be shown the race control centre for the F1 Team.

Another amazing insight into the world of McLaren thanks to Zak!
This video wraps up my tour of the MTC; but which car is the most iconic for you? 👇
From what was shown in this video? Senna's final race-winning car for me. The curtain call on a career that will be talked about regularly for decades on.
Same here, Senna's final race-winning car. my hands were itching to touch that steering wheel SOOO glad you did !
Just so special 😍
Doesn’t get much better 🤯
I didn't know about the Lamborghini! I bet it sounds good. Maybe when they open the Museum they can have test days :) Great video again.
Zak has got to be the most relatable CEO in F1. He’s that perfect mix of business man and racing fan, he’s like a modern day Carol Shelby. I can’t wait to see him win a championship.
Zak is great, a perfect fit for McLaren 👌
I love it when he always says "our" even in times where he wasn't in charge. It shows how much he respects the history and that he contributed both to the past, the present and the future of McLaren. Its what makes boss an excellent boss imo. He really turned this company around in its darkest times and turned it to what we all love today!
@@KiddinaSweetShop epic content and absolutely epic presentation your passion for cars is truly amazing and so was your video with Zak at United Autosports too. Nice to see you on the grid at the BTCC at Donnington. You should film and add some of that on CZcams.
More like a holy fusion of both Jon Favreau, Carroll Shelby, AND Jay Leno.
"a modern day Carol Shelby" indeed. Well said.
Im honestly loving how open McLaren Racing has become! Unboxed episodes after race weekends, a lot of community interaction on all their social media, and giving you a private tour of headquarters? Props to Zak for reviving the brand!
Such a fantastic company 👌
@@KiddinaSweetShop I feel it's related with Lando arriving with the Team. Lando and Carlos were the "first open F1 drivers" for a bit more private and engaging coverage outside of track.
he is a great salesman
@@MisFakapek zaks background is marketing/pr and you can tell he put his expertise there
@@MisFakapek I think that credit still goes to Zak. He encouraged them to be how they were, are. That wouldn’t fly with Ron Dennis. He did a great job, but it was time for change
I absolutely love that Zak Brown uses the word OUR history, OUR driver, OUR success, OUR failure when he refers to things that happened before his tenure. Shows his passion and a sense of ownership for McLaren and racing.
His passion is amazing!
Zak is truly the best manager you could have such an amazing and lively dude!!😊👍💯
It really is so refreshing to see how humble and honored he feels to be a part of the team and not just another CEO type.
What else would he say?
That one word is the difference between a good boss and an excellent boss. Zak definitely has it all and I hopes he keeps leading McLaren to many many years to come. He is exactly what the company needed! Still waiting to see what kind of surprise they have for us in 2023
Zak's passion for racing, F1, and McLaren is so prominent every interview that he does. What an amazing ambassador.
Maybe the only F1 team boss with that much passion for motorsport ? Maybe ?
@@pierreg8827 probably. I love hearing more about and from him here in the states now that they’re also in Indycar. To hear him talk about motor sports is how we all talk about motor sports. The only person even close to that level here is Penske.
@@gloriouslyimperfect I was hoping Haas would be that, but gene is more of a businessman.
@@jrogers922 definitely. I mean there’s a love there for sure but not like Zak and Roger
Seeing how happy Zak gets when he talks about Mclaren history is what it’s all about. Even as a CEO he can’t hide his excitement whenever he sees the cars.
You can literally feel the passion!
Jodie hugging Sennas steering wheel is 100% what I would do except they’d have to prise me off of it!
Same😭
Touch the Senna steering wheel was so emotional, what an amazing collection and thanks for showing to us, as a big f1 fan that was great i was also like a deer in headlights. Big thanks
So special 😍
As a Brazilian and as a F1 addicted and also as a Senna fan, I had goosebumps at the second that number 8 baby appeared. As if the yellow helmet was in that car again.. I could see myself holding that steering wheel just like she did, maybe seating a little bit on that tire...just like a kid... and about to cry my emotions out for all the happiness that this exact car brought to my brazilian population and all the families that this MP4 put together on Sunday mornings (time that usually F1 races are live in Brazil).
Thank you for this experience. Thank you for showing us all this. Glad to see you melting in happiness just like I would!
They had a Lamborghini F1 engine that Ayrton Senna said was amazing. And they chose to do a deal with Peugot.
Peugeot probably had the bigger checkbook at that time.
Respect for Zak - he’s genuinely passionate about the sport. Reminds me Seb reciting all the F1 world champions.
The respect that Mclaren has for the history of its pilots is wonderful, especially for my idol who is sorely missed by my country Ayrton Senna the king of Monaco.
Such a special place 😍
Zak is such a genuine and invested boss it seems, and it’s so infectious. Just makes you feel a part of the team and recognize the incredible history behind it.
Nailed it there! Zak is so accommodating, he'd be happy to talk for hours about all things McLaren!
Alain Prost: 1986 Adelaide GP world champion after Nigel Mansell's blown tyre.
Ayrton Senna: 1993 Adelaide GP last race win for Ayrton. Another incredible race.
Both of these mega important cars for McLaren should be on display, not hidden away.
Thank you so much for these videos.
Glad you enjoyed!
MP4/8 is from a designer point of view, the most aesthetically correct car of them all.
Epic 💥
It’s great that they’re so open, makes F1 finally seem relatable to the fans for once. With Brown doing this, Unboxed and Norris on Twitch. But did anyone notice that Vettel and Stroll had their own sections on the screens behind them? Wonder why they’re interested in the Aston Martin team?
@Sean Gunning Yeah maybe to see how they’re utilising their Merc power? But then again, they are in a different league, should be studying Merc themselves, or Leclerc and Sainz despite different power units as that is their real competitor?
Saw it too. No williams though so id discount other merc customers. Sponsor tie in, or a shared technical partner?
Having your CEO as your no.1 fan is more than just amazing. I love how passionate zak talking about "Ours" and appreciating every single aspect behind Mclaren name. 🧡
Such a great guy 👏🏼
That was overwhelming. What a brilliant insight and please McLaren press ahead with that museum. Zak is a great ambassador for F1 and McLaren and it's great to see the team perform so well this year. Wow!
Jodie this is such an underrated channel. You’re really into cars and driving unlike other CZcamsr’s and that’s obvious to anyone that watches you. Love it 😍
Glad your enjoying the vids so far 😁
I have been waiting every single hour of the day for this!!!
Hope you enjoy!
Crazy to think that billions went into getting those cars onto the track. Zak’s enthusiasm and his humbleness when it comes to his place in the race room is awesome
He's amazing 😎
I actually teared up at Jodie's hands on the tire and Aryton's steering wheel. Pure, pure appreciation and wonderment. I can't even imagine.
Goosebumps..
me too 🙋♂
What an amazing great guy, really shows the passion Zak has for the sport and he's not just a businessman looking for profit.
Another great video. It’s awesome to see that so much of McLaren’s history is preserved so lovingly, and Zak’s passion is immense. Can’t wait to see what’s coming next.
Thanks for watching, plenty more to come!
06:56 oh Zak 😂, love the bluntness and I think I can say it for everyone, we all concur. Jodie, excellent content, superb videography, great presenting style. Admire your passion for F1 and sharing new information to those of us who don't know. 👍🏽
Glad you enjoyed 🙏
The 80's and 90's cars was so beautiful
They were! Such simple, clean designs!
4:17 the way she touches the steering wheel, thats pure love.
❤️
You can see the childhood joy in Zak's eyes as he walks around appreciating and admiring the racecars of his collection! so well deserved and right that the person leading this team has such real passion. thanks Zak for keeping the papaya flag soaring
Definitely the right man for the job!
Loving this so much. As a Finn I got into F1 by watching Mika and Kimi race for McLaren back in the 90s and 00s and they've always been my favourite team. Was super happy to see McLaren win again this year after such a long time.
Most underrated automotive channel on CZcams
Thank you 🙌
Thanks for taking us along in this trip to McLaren history. Nice one again Jodie!
Glad you enjoyed it! 😍
Zak: We have a state of the art control room just for tyre management.
Lando: SHUT UP!!
Thank you - and thank you Zak for showing "the world" stuff that I would have likely never seen in my entire life. Bravo
The McLaren Lamborghini tested at Pembrey race track by my grandmother’s house in Wales. I think it still holds the lap record to this day.
Wow! That car is such an interesting slice of history 😍
You've done it again Jodie. Beautiful machines from an iconic brand. I was sad when Mclaren weren't doing so well in F1 and really looked forward to them rising up again, which of course they are doing. I think Zak Brown is a great person and I can't think of anyone better to lead Mclaren. I would love to meet him one day.
What a fantastic idea Zak has to try and turn it into a museum so that everyone can actually enjoy the history and success of McLaren.Well done on another great video Jodie.
That would be epic!
A decade ago I was the CEO of two local Hospices and McLaren used to provide some sponsorship for us by way of a guided tour. In those days Ron Dennis was shall we say a reluctant partner in that exercise and to be fair we didn’t make the best of the opportunity limited though it was. That said it is so good to see Zak and you Josie show us around McLaren today. I really enjoyed it. It also rubs off on the staff. I live approximately 7 miles from the TLC and often drive one of my two classic cars across Chobham Common and pass the McLaren customer cars on road test with their drivers who give me a friendly wave. The drivers also use the local Shell station to fill up any new cars with petrol. Here I get to talk to the drivers because they are very complimentary about my cars, not, in my opinion, that they’re that good but it’s nice to talk to friendly people who clearly have an interest in all automotive matters, as I say the enthusiasm rubs off so Josie please thank Zak for being so open and enthusiastic about the team and their cars. They will soon be winning GP’s again.
Let's hope so!! 🙌
@@KiddinaSweetShop guaranteed that they will🤗🤧
This man is incredible. You can’t help but love this team with him guiding you through it
😎
I feal so proud that I knew immediately which is Lamborghini engine car. Lol
I saw Senna testing that one back in the day.
No way! Must have been special 😍
Hi there, I had no idea McLaren had a Lamborghini powered car. You actually saw Senna testing that ?. Wow is all I can say...peace to ya my friend.
@@dazuk1969 hi , unfortunately not in person I saw recording (video) from the test and that thing sounded amazing .
I was so sceptical of Zak as a hire, but I could not have been more wrong. He has been and remains an incredible CEO, taking a chance and going outside of F1 to hire Seidl (I do love Porsche!). His moves are bold and visionary, without regard for playing it safe and doing what everyone else is doing. Together Zak and Andreas are punching well above their weight and are rebuilding my beloved McLaren into a superpower again. I cannot wait to celebrate another win.
PS, Zak was so classy when taking about the challenging time with Honda. I love that both teams are having tremendous success. It’s too bad it’s not together but at least they have both gone on to race winning and dare I say championship winning levels.
My favourite team, ever since I knew what F1 was, is certainly in good hands.
Many more wins to come!
Senna's Lambo!! crazy! Would love to see this place. ZaK hit me up!
Epic thing 💥
If Zak's Idea will come to live and It would be possible to inexpensively just see the cars in person I would jump on a plane immediately, Zak would win many fans for the brand. Fingers crossed he'll be able to do it.
What Ron created is truly a thing of beauty
Here here 👏🏼
Fascinating insight behind the scenes at MTC. Many thanks for this superb production Jodie.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you Jodie for the incredible access you have to Zak Brown and the MTC.
Brown is such a likable person. You can really see how much he loves racing, especially McLaren. I have a feeling that he's the type of person who has to pinch himself every now and again, just to make sure all of it is real.
‘Kidd in a Sweet Shop’ is a very apt title for this video, again just superb, thank you.
Sums it up well!
Every team needs a Zak Brown, what a guy. Truly passionate about the company and embodies the history as if he were there, no matter success or failure, which is just amazing to see. Would love to work for this guy
Brilliant man to have at the top!
So happy to come home and see this uploaded. Thanks Jodie! And Zak. I guess you won't have this relationship with all CEOs or team principals, but this sounds like a series of visiting several teams!
Thank you so much for your videos what a privilege to be able to see all of this, never seen a video like this
Thanks for watching!
Love these videos you can tell how much passion Zak has for Mclaren racing as a whole
This is awesome! Thanks you for making this, Zak is great too
This series of videos has been amazing, loved every one of them. Keep on at Zac to open the cars up to the public 😊
Seeing one of Kevins cars makes me so happy, its awesome to see that McLaren hasnt totally forgot about him
There’s no now like Zak. Love his passion. Definitely the right man leading McLaren.
Agreed!
This is easily one of the most charming videos on the internet. Jodie's and Zak's passion for these cars is so fricken marvelous and infectious.
He’s brilliant 🤩
Great video, would pay good money to do this tour. Love the passion and enthusiasm from Zak, what a great person to lead Mclaren and applaud the vision of Ron Dennis to give their team such an amazing facility to work in
Absolutely love this series, keep up the great work Jodie 😄
Zak has made McLaren so open and likeable again.
The long hidden away lamborghini mclaren 😍
Unreal 👌
I would love to go on a tour of the cars in a museum type situation of McLaren. When I visited the UK in 2013 I took a rental car and just drove around to most of the F1 teams. I wasn't allowed to go in so I just looked at the walls of the factories, but I loved it. I managed to sneak into the Force India facility and got to the front desk and saw two cars, trophy and a champagne bottle from 2009 Spa. I also went to Maranello and got to visit the Ferrari musem and went to Hinwil and stared at the trucks sitting outside. I wish the teams would display their cars, trophies, and gear. Hangar 7 in Salzburg has been the coolest display that I have seen, but also the Red Bull factory in the UK has all the trophies at the entrance so that was cool to see.
It’s insane that you can have that much history in one place!! i know that it is their history and their property the majority of the tie but it is STILL so crazy to be able to see it all at once!!!! I’m just getting into f1 but i appreciate the respect and apprection of the history so so so much, I LOVE IT!!!!
Crazy right?! Xx
Really loved this cover ❤ thanks for getting it done and sharing
Love watching your channel and especially with Zak, the conversations and reactions are honest and genuine. I get more immersed with your videos. I wish to visit there someday!
Thank you!
Each uploaded video gets better and better! Great series on McLaren and deep-dive on Zak Brown.
Keep it up Kidd! ❤️
Glad you enjoyed 🙌
Loving yor channel Jodie, Zak seem's super chilled and has done great work at Mclaren too.
Thank you, Zak is the man 😎
I absolutely adore Zak Brown - he's such a class act and truly a real fan of motorsport and everything that entails. He's such an advocate for the fan's side of the sport, gotta love him for that.
Zak really is perfect for McLaren!
This felt so genuine, what a great video!
Thank you, glad you enjoyed 🙏
The passion this guy has is just amazing. Down to earth and so excited to be where he is totally living the dream. As the channel says ….. he is truly a Kidd in a sweet shop.

Amazing to see this. Thanks for sharing it.
Thank you ❤️
Mate, what an awesome insight. Thankyou for this great video!
Glad you enjoyed 🙌
Great videos Jodie. Zak's enthusiasm for motor racing & the McLaren brand is just fantastic. Also a great fan of our V8 Supercars here in Australia. Even better now with an Aussie driver in the team & a Perth boy at that.
🙌🙌
Another fantastic video. Thanks for taking us along. I'm also a wristwatch person and it's always fun to see what watches you're sporting.
Thank you for watching!
The 2016 McLaren was one of my favorites. Such a beautiful looking car, when it has the short nose. And with Alo and But striking helmets.
Can’t get enough of these tours.
really liking Zak Brown.comes across as such a nice guy. must be great to have him as a boss. ive been a mclaren fan since i started following F1 20 years ago. great to see them turning a corner and hopefully back to the front as title contenders. lets hope Zak builds that museum
So passionate, let's hope for many more McLaren wins to come
Thank you, and thank you Zak, for showing this to us the fans. This is why you are my, ours, team.
What a great series. Jodie has done a great job, her character & enthusiasm shines through.
Thanks for watching 🙏
woahh the 8b! (lambo engine)
I can see Bruce McLaren walking at your sides nodding his head in amazement with a huge grin on his face. Thank You Jodie. And Thanks to your camera-person too. Wonderfully captured. Cheers from The Land Down Under.
Glad you enjoyed!
Wow another wild video! Cheers from Watkins Glen & the Finger Lakes!
🙌🏼
Great insight into a fraction of whats behind the doors at MTC.
Just love the passion and calm approach to this presentation by both Zak and Jodie. You can feel the emotion without having an over excited presenter (unlike so many other CZcams motoring 'influencers"
Much appreciated. Glad you enjoyed it!
AMAZING!!. The Bat door to The Bat Cave!!. 17 other buildings with cars,,granted not all the space.
One more part of the collection to go then...
Great video series!
Awesome thank you for this look into the kitchen! 👏🏻😎
Zak is a true connaisseur. So much passion! Right man @ right place
Excellent to see behind the scenes at mclaren f1 team 👍👍
This is EPIC... walking on the boulevard and well beyond with Zac Brown himself 🫠😇🥰😍
