Christmas week is finally upon us after a packed season of sportscar racing around the world. To celebrate we’ll be running a special Christmas week edition of our Friday Night Film Shows each day for the next seven days.

To start, here’s a run through some of the coolest McLaren videos available on the web, some racing, some road car, some a bit of both.

Let’s get started!

We’ll begin back at the start of 2016, when McLaren GT scored its first victory at the Bathurst 12 Hour with customer team Tekno Autosports. That weekend, Shane van Gisbergen, driving the winning 650S GT3, also broke the lap record of the circuit during Qualifying.

And the on-board footage is mind-melting!

Once you’ve recovered from that, here’s the collection of McLaren F1s which made the trip to Goodwood for the Members’ Meeting last year.

Simply sublime.

Moving away from race cars briefly, Alex Goy from Carfection got behind the wheel of one of the 500 McLaren 675LT Spiders, which is basically a jet fighter on wheels. To put it lightly, it’s a pretty neat bit of kit!

Back to Bathurst, as week look ahead to next year’s 12 Hour, here’s a look back at the 2014 race, which once again featured Shane van Gisbergen doing what he does best in a McLaren against Bernd Schneider in a Mercedes and Mika Salo in a Ferrari.

Bonkers!

2016 marked the 25th anniversary of McLaren’s BPR Championship win with the F1 GTR. To celebrate, McLaren released an astonishing set of onboard videos from that season.

Here’s the one from Anderstorp:

And finally, because we couldn’t do a McLaren-themed film show without touching on its 1995 Le Mans win, here’s the documentary of the marque at the race that year: ‘Pursuit of Perfection’.

Check back on DSC each day for more like video selections like this.
