    Has Alonso got any personal sponsors he's bringing to the team, like Santander?
    I think he means the 2007 mess

    Well the new engine clarifications are rather unfair on Honda imo. Doesn't seem right they will only get 26 engine tokens after this year as everyone else. Who would want to join F1 now? I am wondering if that's the whole point, and if Bernie really is trying to destroy F1 to remake a new series in which he gets more money and control, or something like that...

    Is this confirmed? I thought the FIA hadn't addressed this issue yet.

    It's 25 according to the version of the tech regs I have, but yes the engine points allowances for all the years 2015-2020 were written into the rules last year.

    Here are about 47 pic's of the MP4-30. I'm actually a little underwhelmed by the livery, but it still is a gosh darn good looking rig. I hope it is fast!

    That must an interim livery. Don't think Honda likes the silver that is associated to Merc.

    There is still no title sponsor. Some rumours suggest that Dennis is asking too much money for it

    The back end is very slim, a huge change compared to last year. That's the influence of Prodromou I guess.

    There is a very large removeable cover on top of the nose. Have they hired a front suspension mechanic who has enormous banana-bunch hands?

    No front brake ducts are shown on the pictures. Either they're hiding something clever or someone in the carbon fibre workshop is getting a slap for not finishing them in time

    Not as good looking as I have come to expect from McLaren, but it's still better than last year's car.
