Miami will host the fifth round of the 2022 Formula One World Championship. It will be the first race in this city to be held on May 8, 2022 at the Miami International Autodrome, Florida. On this occasion, McLaren has prepared a limited edition of the McLaren 720S.
McLaren will produce only five copies of this model and will be powered by a standard 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 engine with 720 hp (530 kW) and 568 lb-ft (770 Nm) of torque. Touch the pedal and you’ll feel the instant response from the engine at work. The new engine is also positioned as low as possible between the front and rear axles – increasing the car’s handling prowess, and its luggage capacity. It reaches 62 mph in 2.8 seconds and 124 mph (200 km / h) in 7.8 seconds with a top speed of 212 mph (341 km / h).
The cars will be used for promotional purposes, and the design brings Fluro Papaya yellow elements to the front and sides of the car, while the light blue color of the rear fenders and bonnet make a contrast. All five copies were made in the colors of Formula 1 racing cars driven by Lando Norris and Daniel Ricciardo.
