sick of hearing talk from Mclaren. They absolutely need to pull their fingers out and be challenging for wins

I miss the days where they included stuff like wheelbase in the specs.

Last year's Mclaren livery was one of my favourites for many years. This year's....blurgh....

Also, that massive empty spot on the engine cover just screams "watch this space for a sponsor announcement" to me....

Turned down the chance to meet Vettel at Silverstone in 2007. He was a test driver at the time and I didn't think it was worth queuing!! 🤦🏻‍♂️

The sponsor placements for me are ugly! Looks tacky I think! However saying that I like the blue and how they have done the BAT!

I hate this livery so much. Looks awful. The blue on the airbox is bad and the sponsor logos are so poorly placed, especially compared to last year. Looks like a backmarker. Do not want.

I dont agree with you. Earlier I said blue-orange-black dont match, but this livery seems to me so beuty.

It just occurred to me. The shape of the blue on the sidepods is very reminiscent of the red on the sidepods back in the Vodafone era....

I feel like the airbox part could have been done better though. Probably wouldn't look so bad if there was something in the big empty space though....

You do have that feeling that they might be working on some deal, because you would have thought that they could find a sponsor for the front wing plates.

Zak Brown has lost some weight, looking good. Looks like the MCL35 inspired him to slim down.

Yeah, the big empty spaces on the car, for me it means that coming to Melbourne they should have a new big sponsor

I'm sure there will be something under "dell technologies" on the motor cover, under Richard mille and on the endplates :D
