Belarus have a negligible presence in F1, so this will come as a huge boost for the tiny nation. Aliaksei Kavalionak, Chairman of the Board at Miory Steel, expressed happiness at the deal. He is expecting a mutually beneficial partnership, with victories at sight for the rejuvenated McLaren.

“We are very excited about the upcoming partnership with McLaren Racing. We see our cooperation as long-term, innovative and mutually beneficial for all its participants.

And this achievement allows us to look to the future with inspiration, to expect active team-work at all levels of the partnership and be confident that the development of our relationship will be harmonious.

Anyone else remember a few years back when Mclaren had like zero sponsors?

Now it seems they’re announcing a new one every other day.

Way to go @McLarenF1 and welcome to the family @MiorySteel!
