Chez McLaren, l’appellation ‘Sprint’ sert à désigner des modèles radicaux et uniquement utilisables sur circuit. Il y a eu la MP4-12C Sprint, la 650S Sprint et on découvre la 570S Sprint, aujourd’hui à quelques heures de l’ouverture du ‘Festival of Speed’ 2016 à Goodwood.
Design de McLaren 570S Sprint
Moins pistarde que la très récente McLaren 570S GT4, cette 570S Sprint a été préparé pour les gentlemen drivers qui veulent en profiter sur circuit, sans répondre aux réglementations strictes des différents championnats FIA. A l’intérieur, cette 570S Sprint reste adapté circuit, avec arceau cage, homologué FIA, ainsi qu’un siège avec harnais six points.

Non homologuée ni pour la route, ni pour aucun championnat, cette McLaren 570S Sprint peut recevoir un pack GT4, qui permet de concorder avec les exigences techniques du championnat GT4 FIA. Ce pack a été développé en même temps que la 570S GT4, dont la 570S Sprint reprend ainsi l’aileron monté à l’avant, servant à augmenter l’appui au sol des pneumatiques, et le fond plat, pour canaliser l’air qui passe sous la voiture. Afin de faciliter les changements de pneus, les roues de la 570S Sprint sont chacune équipées de série d’un seul écrou central. On note le large aileron en fibre de carbone à l’arrière, pour augmenter l’appui.
Having been developed in parallel to the 570S GT4 – currently completing its final testing phase in the live race environment of the British GT championship – the package includes all items required to meet the FIA standards for GT4 competition.

Moteur de McLaren 570S Sprint
Au sein du châssis monocoque carbone, la 570S Sprint embarque toujours le moteur V8 3,8 litres biturbo associé à une boîte automatique à 7 rapports.
Below the skin, the 570S Sprint is built around the carbon fibre MonoCell II chassis shared with all Sports Series models, and also features the familiar mid-mounted 3.8-litre twin turbo V8 engine and seven speed SSG transmission.
Moteur de McLaren 570S
Le moteur, toujours installé en position centrale arrière, est une version du V8 3,8 litres biturbo proposant un couple de un couple de 600 Nm et délivrant 570 ch. en référence à la dénomination choisie par McLaren. 570 ch, c’est 80 ch de moins que la 650S. Le moteur dénommé M838TE est associé à une boîte automatique à double embrayage à 7 rapports. McLaren annonce des performances de haut niveau et proches de la 650S. Le 0 à 100 km/h serait abattu en 3,2 secondes (3 s pour sa grande sœur !) Quant aux 200 km/h, ils seraient atteints en 9,5 secondes. (Chiffre pour la 570S de base)

English summary
McLaren 570S Sprint to make global debut at Goodwood
‘We’re seeing a rise in demand from customers who want to get on track, though not necessarily to go racing. The 570S Sprint is the perfect car for someone who doesn’t have the time to devote to an entire season of competition, but still wants to experience the exhilaration of driving a McLaren racing car.’ - Ansar Ali, McLaren Motorsport Director
McLaren 570S Sprint debuts at the 2016 Goodwood Festival of Speed
The recently-announced McLaren 570S Sprint will make both static and dynamic global debuts at this year’s Goodwood Festival of Speed as part of the largest presence by McLaren to date. The track-only model will thrill crowds on the famous Hill run and be on public display in the Supercar Paddock alongside the McLaren P1 GTR, 650S Can-Am, 570S Coupé and the 675LT Coupé. A second example of the 570S Sprint will be on private view for McLaren guests at its central location, adjacent to Goodwood House.
The 570S Sprint is the most track-focused model in the McLaren Sports Series line-up. It has been conceived purely for owners to enjoy on the track and without the restrictions of any race series. Power and torque levels have been optimised to ensure the ultimate levels of driver engagement and the best levels of noise, too, as visitors to Goodwood will soon hear.
Below the skin, the 570S Sprint is built around the carbon fibre MonoCell II chassis shared with all Sports Series models, and also features the familiar mid-mounted 3.8-litre twin turbo V8 engine and seven speed SSG transmission.
The 570S Sprint features enhanced cooling via a front centre GT3-inspired high temp radiator, along with a more aggressive front splitter and floor assembly as premiered on the 570S GT4. As standard, the 570S Sprint is filled with New Life 0W-40 engine oil, developed by McLaren Automotive technology partner Mobil 1.
Based on the aerodynamic ‘shrink-wrapped’ design of the 570S Coupé, the 570S Sprint features an air piercing front bumper which separates the airflow above, below and through the bodywork, while the intricate design of the ‘floating’ door tendons channel air into the side-mounted radiators. The elegant flying buttresses are also retained. An additional aerodynamic upgrade which includes a large carbon fibre fixed rear wing and front dive planes, brings the highest level of downforce yet seen on any model in the Sports Series.
Centre-locking lightweight cast magnesium wheels shod with Pirelli racing slicks are fitted as standard, while the double wishbones and anti-roll bars front and rear are shared with the suspension system seen on the 570S Coupé. An optional motorsport air jacking system to aid wheel changes is also available.
Inside the stripped out, driver-focused cabin, an FIA-approved rollcage adds further protection to the lightweight carbon fibre MonoCell II chassis. The FIA-approved flat back driver, and optional passenger, seat are fitted with a six-point racing harness, and a fire extinguisher system is also installed as standard.
While the 570S Sprint is not homologated for any race series, a GT4 compliance pack is available as a further upgrade for the 570S Sprint. Having been developed in parallel to the 570S GT4 – currently completing its final testing phase in the live race environment of the British GT championship – the package includes all items required to meet the FIA standards for GT4 competition.
‘We’ve set up the 570S Sprint to feel just like the GT4 car, but with a focus on helping the less experienced driver. It has the same aerodynamic upgrades including an extended splitter and an enhanced aerodynamic package. Exactly the same experience and know-how has gone into the 570S Sprint that we put into our race-winning 650S GT3 and the McLaren P1™ GTR,’ reveals Chris. ‘You could use it at track events and have an awful lot of fun, but it can also be made eligible for various championship series around the world, which opens up all sorts of possibilities.’ - Chris Goodwin, McLaren Chief Test Driver
