1976 McLaren M26

This is a photograph I took in the paddock at Oulton Park at the Gold Cup meeting in August 2003.

The programme of the event shows it as a 1976 McLaren M23 to be driven by Frank Lyons in the Force Classic Grand Prix Cars race, but it looks more like a McLaren M26, one of which at that time was also owned by Frank Lyons. James Hunt won the World Drivers' Championship in 1976 in a McLaren M23, but his team mate Jochen Mass drove a McLaren M26 that year, finishing in ninth place in the Championship with his best results being a couple of third places.
