McLaren Signs Mikkel Jensen As First Hypercar Driver

This is a well deserved appointment, and what an honor to be announced first, all by himself! To me, that’s a signal McLaren sees Jensen as a star of the future, so they want the world to get to know him before they announce some of the blockbuster names that are surely coming from other departments at McLaren Racing. Those names may generate the bulk of the headlines, but it’s likely they’ll be on more limited and specialized programs. Jensen is the main man. It’s cool that they’re giving him this leadership position of going first.
