Over the years, plenty of Formula 1 cars have been auctioned off to wealthy fans who want a piece of motorsports history. But up until now, there hasn't really been a way to bid for a piece of motorsports future—and McLaren is set to change that, Jalopnik reports.

McLaren Racing CEO Zak Brown announced at Monterey Car Week that the company would be auctioning off a 2026 Formula 1 car, a 2026 Arrow McLaren IndyCar, and a 2027 United AS for the World Endurance Championship. As Brown points out, these are cars that are still in development.

The auction will be held during the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix weekend in December.

Brown says that this will be much more than simply buying a car, even a F1 car or its brethren—the highest bidder will be purchasing a unique experience. What's more, Brown says that you can choose whether your winning bid will be driven by Lando Norris or Oscar Piastri.

But you can't actually take possession of the vehicle until 2028. Until then, you'll have to make due with a 2025 show car on lease.

Outside of F1, the IndyCar will be driven by Pato O'Ward at the Indianapolis 500 in May 2026. McLaren's LMDh car will mark the team's return to Le Mans and debut in the FIA World Endurance Championship in 2027.

You can visit the McLaren Technology Center in Woking, and you get special access to the team at races.
