Both McLaren and JOTA have similar DNA in the sense of a great depth in engineering capability and a winning mentality. Both my partner, Sam Hignett, and I have worked enormously hard to make JOTA not just a winning team but also a fun one to be around, so I think the collaboration between McLaren and JOTA together with three Factory Drivers will become a major force in GT racing.&#8221;<br \/>\n<\/em>David Clark, Co-Owner, JOTA<\/p>\n<p><em>&#8220;I\u2019m extremely happy with my new appointment as a McLaren Factory Driver.
