Unlocking more performance
Optimum Nutrition is helping McLaren Formula 1 Team unlock their full potential.
5g’s of Pressure
Drivers must recover from up to 5g’s of lateral and longitudinal force on their bodies. That’s equivalent to around 5x the pressure of their own body weight – more than astronauts experience during launch.
1.80sec World Record
The McLaren F1 Pit Crew is the fastest in the world – the type of speed that demands focus and precision. They work long hours, across 5 continents, and in high temperatures, necessitating peak efficiency.
250 Pounds of Force
McLaren Formula 1 drivers need the muscle strength and size to apply an astounding 250 pounds of force to their brake pedals; in a 100-minute race, they may do this up to 250 times – with one leg!
“F1 is a team sport unlike most others. We want to support the nutritional needs of our entire race team and wider teams as they prepare and Optimum Nutrition helps us with this”
