McLaren Racing has been valued at around an estimated £3.5 billion as the organisation has announced a revised and simplified ownership structure.
Mumtalakat Holding Company and CYVN Holdings have bought out the 33 per cent share in McLaren Racing that the United States-based investment group MSP Capital held.
While Mumtalakat will own a majority stake in the organisation, CYVN Holdings will continue as a non-controlling stakeholder.
Speaking about the deal, Executive Chairman of the McLaren Group, Paul Walsh, said: “Our suite of minority investors came on board in 2020 and we thank them for their tremendous support over the past few years as we set McLaren Racing on a path to commercial growth and financial stability.”
“We now have two fantastic shareholders in Mumtalakat, a long-standing and deeply valued partner, and CYVN, whose additional investment in Automotive and McLaren Racing, together with their strategic focus on advanced mobility, strengthens our ability to future-proof the business and capture new growth opportunities.”
Since Zak Brown was appointed the group’s CEO back in 2018, McLaren has sustained a remarkable upward trend in terms of performance both on and off the track.
The Woking-based squad recently penned a deal with Mastercard, which will see the global fintech giant become the team’s title sponsor in Formula 1 from next season.
McLaren stands as the reigning Constructors’ Champions and is on course to win a first title since 1998, having won 12 of the 15 Grands Prix to have been held in 2025.
Alongside being the current benchmark in F1, McLaren also has a side that races in IndyCar and will begin competing in the World Endurance Championship from 2027.
