McLaren MP4/4 – Owners’ Workshop Manual

The McLaren MP4/4 is the iconic Honda V6 Turbo-powered F1 car built by McLaren for the 1988 grand prix season, driven by Ayrton Senna and Alain Prost. Remarkably the car won all but one race during the year, and took McLaren's new recruit Senna to his first World championship after a season-long battle with team-mate Prost. The MP4/4 is still statisticallythe most dominant F1 ever built, taking pole position and victory in all but one of the 1988 season's 16 races. A wealth of previously unpublished archive material, including original technical drawings and team documentation, provides fascinating new insight into the design and build of the MP4/4. Officially licensed from McLaren, and produced with the team's full cooperation and unique access to a race winning MP4/4 chassis, this manual tells for the first time the accurate story of the design, engineering and operation of one of F1's most iconic cars, featuring extensive and often candid input from the designers, engineers and drivers involved.
