In 1969 the McLaren M8B, driven by Bruce McLaren and Denny Hulme, won every race of the championship, cementing the image of the orange cars. The colour has returned to McLaren's modern F1 cars and road cars as a tribute. For modelers, Papaya Orange is ideal for M8B and Can-Am builds in 1:24 and 1:43, for classic McLaren F1 cars, and for modern McLarens that wear the heritage colour.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003ch3\u003eThe problem with livery colours\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eA livery colour only looks right next to the other colours of the scheme.
