Ground-breaking McLaren W1 Headlines the 2025 Goodwood Festival of Speed
McLaren Automotive is set to create a stunning showcase at the 2025 Goodwood Festival of Speed, bringing together its legacy of road car excellence and motorsport dominance under this year’s theme: ‘Champions and Challengers’.
At the heart of McLaren’s display is the world debut of the McLaren W1, a revolutionary supercar that blends raw power, cutting-edge technology, and an unfiltered connection between driver and machine. Presented for the first time at McLaren House, the W1 captures the true spirit of McLaren’s relentless innovation.
McLaren W1: A New Supercar Benchmark
The McLaren W1 is a masterpiece designed to deliver a sensational driving experience on both road and track.
Only 399 units of this exclusive supercar will be built, and all have already been allocated.
The W1 is the third chapter in McLaren’s elite ‘1’ car lineage, proudly following the legendary McLaren F1 and the iconic McLaren P1™. Each of these machines represents a bold leap in automotive engineering across their respective generations.
Celebrating 30 Years Since Le Mans Glory
McLaren’s story at Goodwood goes beyond the W1.
2025 marks the 30th anniversary of McLaren’s unforgettable 24 Hours of Le Mans victory — achieved at the team’s first-ever attempt.
The legendary McLaren F1 GTR #59 that won Le Mans in 1995 will make a rare dynamic appearance on the Goodwood Hillclimb, driven by JJ Lehto, one of the original winning drivers.
McLaren will also showcase the new 750S Le Mans, a limited-edition supercar inspired by that historic win.
It is a modern tribute to the McLaren F1 LM, one of the most coveted McLaren road cars ever produced.
Solus GT: Fantasy Brought to Life
McLaren’s track-only Solus GT will return to Goodwood for another dynamic demonstration.
In 2024, the Solus GT made headlines when Formula 1 legend Mika Häkkinen drove a customer car finished in a custom MSO paint scheme matching his 1998 championship-winning F1 car.
This year, McLaren will once again run a customer-owned Solus GT at the festival, showcasing the brand’s bespoke craftsmanship and dedication to creating truly individual vehicles.
Celebrating Formula 1 Success with the MCL38 Editions
McLaren will present two Celebration Edition supercars at Goodwood, created to mark the McLaren Formula 1 team’s 2024 World Constructors’ Championship.
These models highlight McLaren’s ongoing success in Formula 1 and the seamless connection between its racing DNA and road car development.
10 Years of McLaren’s Thrilling LT Series
The Goodwood Festival of Speed 2025 also marks a decade of McLaren’s coveted ‘LT’ (Longtail) models.
The ‘Celebrate LT’ initiative has united LT owners worldwide through exclusive community events.
Visitors to Goodwood will see LT models from McLaren’s Heritage Collection in the Supercar Paddock and in live dynamic runs.
Final Thoughts
McLaren’s lineup at the 2025 Goodwood Festival of Speed is a celebration of heritage, innovation, and the bold future of supercar design. From the ground-breaking McLaren W1 to the championship-inspired MCL38 Editions, every car reflects McLaren’s unique ability to challenge expectations and set new performance benchmarks.
