Awesome. Probably my favourite livery yet. Hope they stick with it.
Finally, everyone knows that Red Bull is a joke and Max Verstappen is overrated.

So, here it is... the new livery. Did Sauber sold their last year's livery rights?

I like it! Simple, yet pretty mean looking. Still has a distinctive McLaren look. The swoosh on the nose is as close to the Marlboro chevron as they could dare go.

I think the grey around the monocoque could be lighter than those shots suggest.

Could it be that the "rights" of the Red and White McLaren color scheme lies with Marlboro? and that that is the reason why they don't paint there current cars Red and White?

Anyway, this new livery is at least better than there previous one.

Maybe they're hoping that people will just think its and HRT trundling round at the tail end and not associate the current performace with the McLaren name.

I'm not a fan, I preferred the previous livery, it just needed a title sponsor. This looks more like a backmarker livery, like that of Hispania or Minardi of old.
