McLaren's 570S GT4 track car made its China debut last weekend in the first race of the 2017 China GT championship, before an estimated TV and online audience of over 75 million. The 12th to 13th May event at Beijing Goldenport Park circuit provided an appropriate showcase for the McLaren 570S GT4, with the China GT having swiftly become the most influential elite racing contest in China since its launch in 2016.
McLaren was named Official Safety Car partner for China GT and provided a 570S road car for this purpose. A total of 16 teams from both China and overseas will compete in 12 races at six different locations: Beijing, Erdos, Zhuhai, Shanghai, Chengdu, and the new Zhejiang circuit. This year sees the inclusion of a GT4 class for the first time, in addition to GT3 and GTC competitions that ran in 2016.
In addition to the carbon fibre Monocell II chassis of the McLaren 570S, which combines lightweight properties with innate strength to give superior track performance, the GT4 car features other cutting-edge technology crafted specifically for the race track, including an aluminium rear wing that balances extra downforce with a front splitter, the addition of bonnet 'nostrils' to improve overall airflow and a centrally-mounted front radiator to optimise heat dissipation.
