McLaren Racing has agreed a multi-year Formula 1 partnership with Miory Steel, the leading producer of electrolytic tinning and cold-rolled sheet in Belarus.
The partnership aims to raise awareness of Miory Steel on a global level to support the growth of the young brand.
Miory Steel’s mission to produce competitive and best in-class tinplate for consumers primarily in Europe and CIS countries shows their ambition to perform at the highest level. Similar to McLaren Racing, competing at the peak of motorsport, agility and rigour are key factors to their success with 240,000 tonnes of tinplate being produced each year.
Starting from the Formula 1 Belgian Grand Prix, Miory Steel branding will feature on the nose of the MCL35 and the sleeves of the McLaren pit crew.
Zak Brown, CEO, McLaren Racing said: “We are delighted to announce our new partnership with Miory Steel and contribute to the growth of their brand and business using McLaren’s strong marketing platform.
