High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The McLaren M2B is a Formula One motor racing car model, designed by Robin Herd for the Bruce McLaren Motor Racing team. It was the first McLaren Formula One car, and was based on the M2A prototype car (the M1 designation had been used by a sports car racing design). Bruce McLaren had been a works Cooper driver on the international Grand Prix circuit since 1958, but after scoring no wins with Cooper since 1962, and the success of his sports-racing cars, he set out to build single-seat Formula One racing cars for the upcoming 3.0 L formula in 1966. The McLaren M2B made its debut at the 1966 Monaco Grand Prix, powered by an ex-Indianapolis Ford V8. Later in the season, the heavyweight Ford unit was replaced by a lighter, but less powerful, Scuderia Serenissima engine. McLaren encountered limited success in its first year in F1, scoring only three championship points. The car had two race finishes from four Grand Prix starts; there were also two additional entries in which the car did not start the race, although it qualified for the events.
