The Untold Story of McLaren's Anime Sponsor

The Untold Story of McLaren's Anime Sponsor

McLaren F1: The Anime Sponsorship is not something that you had expected. You see, @McLaren Got An Anime Makeover in the 90s and when McLaren was sponsored by an anime company, things got weird. I bet this was the McLaren Racing sponsorship you didn't know about. Back in the 90s, Akira Toriyama (the creator of Dragon Ball) met up with Ayrton Senna at the 1990 German Grand Prix and that led to the popular magazine Shonen Jump to sponsor the Woking team and have their logo on the MP4/5 for the 90 season of Formula 1. What went behind this bizarre collaboration and why was McLaren so popular in the 80s and 90s that it had Japanese sponsors? #F1 #McLaren #DragonBall #Formula1 #DragonBallZ #anime #FormulaOne
