McLaren is updating the version of Google Chrome on its F1 racecar. By that, I mean: McLaren's got more Google Chrome logos and chrome finish than usual on the F1 car it's bringing to the US Grand Prix at the Circuit of the Americas in Austin, Texas, this weekend.

McLaren's MCL38 continues the tradition of rocking Google-colored wheels and logos, but like last year's special British Grand Prix version, the livery for this weekend's race has a splash of literal chrome beneath the Chrome logo, looking like it came out of a custom car shop from the aughts. This time, however, McLaren has added extra Chrome logos and what looks like a heavier slathering of metallic chrome that extends down the sidewalls.

It's a lot of chrome, as driver Oscar Piastri nonchalantly points out:

During season 2022, McLaren had a large Android logo on the top section of the car, but it has since been uninstalled in favor of just Chrome. Don't worry; Android is still running on the drivers' new suits, along with some new chrome accent touches. I wonder if Oscar Piastri will still have Chrome logos on his helmet.

You can catch the rollout of this Chrome update on Sunday, October 20th, when the US Grand Prix will kick off at 3PM ET.
