Arrow McLaren unveils ‘Never Stop Racing’ trio of Indy 500 liveries

Arrow McLaren’s ‘Never Stop Racing’ campaign introduced earlier this year has roared to life with the unveiling of the IndyCar outfit’s trio of Indianapolis 500 liveries for its Nos. 5, 6, and 7 entries.

The team has crafted a bold, unified look for Pato O’Ward, Nolan Siegel, and Christian Lundgaard. Each Arrow McLaren-Chevrolet dazzles with a sleek white base, punched up with vibrant, stylized colors that pulse with the team’s relentless drive.

Arrow McLaren will be working overtime at the Brickyard at the end of next month with its regular fleet contenders complemented by Kyle Larson’s No. 17 McLaren/Hendrick Chevy entry.

“McLaren’s ‘Never Stop Racing’ campaign centers around the idea that racing doesn’t only exist from green to checkered flag – it’s always on,” the team stated.

“The culture of constantly pushing, innovating and chasing high performance has and always will be central to the identity of McLaren Racing, and that attitude doesn’t stop at the track.

“Across sports, lifestyle and culture, we’re here to make racing exciting, accessible and engaging for everyone.”

Team principal Tony Kanaan didn’t hold back: “The Indianapolis 500 is the biggest stage in racing, and our liveries this year reflect that in every detail.

“The design is more than just a new look – it represents the precision, performance, and passion that fuel McLaren Racing. Through our Never Stop Racing campaign, these liveries capture the endless spirit of competition that drives us forward, no matter what.”

Phillip van Osten

Motor racing was a backdrop from the outset in Phillip van Osten's life. Born in Southern California, Phillip grew up with the sights and sounds of fast cars thanks to his father, Dick van Osten, an editor and writer for Auto Speed and Sport and Motor Trend. Phillip's passion for racing grew even more when his family moved to Europe and he became acquainted with the extraordinary world of Grand Prix racing. He was an early contributor to the monthly French F1i Magazine, often providing a historic or business perspective on Formula 1's affairs. In 2012, he co-authored along with fellow journalist Pierre Van Vliet the English-language adaptation of a limited edition book devoted to the great Belgian driver Jacky Ickx. He also authored "The American Legacy in Formula 1", a book which recounts the trials and tribulations of American drivers in Grand Prix racing. Phillip is also a commentator for Belgian broadcaster Be.TV for the US Indycar series.
