Daniel Ricciardo Gets His Own Limited Edition McLaren 720S


Commemorating his first win with the McLaren F1 team at the 2021 Italian Grand Prix, the British F1 team and sportscar maker has come up with this special Daniel Ricciardo Edition 720S.

Only three of these will be made available worldwide (a nod to Ricciardo’s race number), and all three are destined for Ricciardo’s home country of Australia.

Made by McLaren Special Operations (MSO), this 720S is painted in Papaya Spark and Burton Blue—the colors used on the McLaren F1 MCL35M race car. Moreover, the Daniel Ricciardo Edition 720S has carbon fiber sills inscribed with Ricciardo’s signature, a ‘One of Three’ dedication plate, Ricciardo’s race number 3 etched on the iconic 720S dihedral doors, and the Australian flag adorning the front haunches.

Sadly, McLaren Automotive missed the opportunity to include a nod to the Shoey.

While the Daniel Ricciardo Edition 720S doesn’t carry the same weight as the Senna—the other McLaren named after one of their drivers, this is sure to please diehard Ricciardo fans and car collectors.
