They have not been for a long while now. It has been 4 full seasons since they even won a grand prix. It was time things changed at mclaren.WaikeCU wrote:An end of an era. I don't think they'll be the team they are used to be.Holm86 wrote:That sucks actually IMOmclaren111 wrote:Mclaren:
Getting rid of Ron's legacy
The guy is a douche but this is very disrespectful to all that he did for this team honestly.mclaren111 wrote:Mclaren:Getting rid of Ron's legacy2017 is all about change, and our car name is changing too. Ladies and gents, get set for the McLaren-Honda MCL32. #MCL32 #ChangeYourName
I don't think it's that easy. I don't think they have the most talented and best personnel on the team right now. The combination of staff and the positioning of the staff defines how good a team is and I don't think that's the case right now. We used to have Ron Dennis, Martin Whitmarsh, Adrian Newey, Norbert Haug, etc. I don't think the current line up of management is equal as impressive as those names to the least.turbof1 wrote:They have not been for a long while now.

Well I guess it goes to show that the team and organization as a whole is bigger than one man. Remember it was a douche move on Ron's part in the original mp4 name as it was a legacy of his reverse takeover from mclaren. Well Ferrari have been doing the flippy floppy with their names for years as well. Then again they've never been the same since they changed their car names from F200X..... Maybe a bad omen to come?????Sevach wrote:The guy is a douche but this is very disrespectful to all that he did for this team honestly.mclaren111 wrote:Mclaren:Getting rid of Ron's legacy2017 is all about change, and our car name is changing too.

We shall see if the organization is indeed bigger than the man starting now.cplchanb wrote: Well I guess it goes to show that the team and organization as a whole is bigger than one man.

Asked by NBC Sports whether McLaren chargers will stop donning the famed “MP4” label, Brown replied: “No, I think we’re going to stay where we are.”
Then why the MCL32, and not MCL01?KingHamilton01 wrote:Why can't people accept change, need's to make a mark on the team and he is doing that! can't just keep looking back at the past now, moving forward and embracing change is a good thing so why all the negativity??? Anyway most important thing is that the whole team improves on track!
If any of those end up in the official thread I'll send it to the paper shredder along with its poster #brutality.santos wrote:Embrace yourself... there is coming 300 pages of discussion about the name of the car.
Loool that is going to be a sensible F1 car. A driver also needs a place to put his stuff. Maybe it will also have cup holdersFrukostScones wrote:first (technical)drawing surfaced:
