RacingNews365 reports that McLaren Racing’s turnover rose by about £100m to £588.483m in 2025, while the Formula 1 team recorded an after-tax loss of £17.360m. It puts the previous year’s after-tax result at a £53.836m profit.

The publication also reports a £42.758m pre-tax loss for 2025, compared with a £48.462m pre-tax profit in 2024.

Companies House records that McLaren Racing filed accounts for the year ended 31 December 2025 on 30 September 2026. It lists the 2024 filing as group accounts and the 2025 filing as full accounts, a distinction to bear in mind when comparing the reported results.
