This McLaren-Honda-Themed Suite Is a Formula 1 Playground

It’s not a race car bed, but it’s close

If you were one of the lucky ones to have a race car bed growing up, we’re more than a little jealous.

For the rest of us,  the folks at the Hilton Mexico City Reforma have cooked up a way to fulfill the need for speed dreams in proper adult fashion with a racing-themed suite featuring McLaren and Honda.

Debuting in time for the Formula 1 Gran Premio de Mexico at the end of the month, the McLaren-Honda suite is filled with racing gear and mementos like a track-used steering wheel, a stack of Pirelli tires and a slew of driving suits and helmets.

Champion F1 drivers Jenson Button and Fernando Alonso helped design the suite for Hilton and in addition to handpicking gadgets and equipment, they decked it out in checkered flags that Formula 1 fans may want to permanently “borrow” after check out.

Can’t say we’d blame ’em.
