Bruce's Original Team

"...we are delighted that this film is going to be made. So many people are unaware of Bruce’s achievements, how he founded the team that still exists today and  his success in so many aspects of motor racing – something that even Ferrari have not been able to emulate. His friends and colleagues also remember Bruce as an inspirational leader and motivator and my mother and I are looking forward to seeing this film completed and honouring the legacy of a great man, husband and father."

"[In Bruce's time] hi-jinks were common place and although rivals on the track, the drivers were also great friends who travelled and partied together from race to race. Imagine Lewis Hamilton lending Jensen Button a spanner or even an engine and then having a beer together after the race today. F1 has changed beyond recognition and this film will take us all back to a time when motor racing was incredibly glamorous, extremely dangerous and very, very different to how it is today."

"As Bruce's younger sister, to me he was an amazingly inspirational person and still is to this day. Worldwide respect for Bruce is remarkable even though it is nearly 40 years since his death. Through this film we want to share this beloved member of our family with the entire world so that people of all ages and from all walks of life can be inspired by his achievements as we all have been."

"When I first heard that there was to be a movie made around Bruce I felt compelled to contribute in any way possible. Here is a man to whom I owe so much, and if his kindness, tenacity, passion, humor and all round good bloke that he was, can be portrayed on film it should be great example to all on how to live life well."

Robin's knowledge and technical expertise on the construction of the McLaren cars has provided the project's writer with a unique insight into the team and the life of Bruce McLaren.

Alastair continues to provide a wonderful insight into Bruce's team in the 1960's and is looking forward to the films release.
