    Yeah I doubt it'll have Marlboro shapes on it but I expect red and white livery. McLaren have never unveiled an ugly livery so it should be good

    Being a Kiwi fro NZ (now) I would love them to go all the way back and race in the old McLaren team Orange. But with honda as a part owner in the company red and white is the most obvious and practical

    Unless I am wrong.... again, in which case ignore what you have just read
    you are right,

    Apaprently its only the new livery and the car will be seen on Feb 19 - why are they calling it the launch of the new "car" then?

    The colors are nice though.
    It's last year's wing! I doubt the new one will look hugely different though.

    So the pen1$e$ are still there... they just seem less... excited. Couldn't they come up with something that makes them really go away? And what was Vettel's porno name for his car last year?

    I like the livery I guess.

    Someone said it looks fast, which is a strange thing to say, but I get what you are saying. It does look a decent start of a car.
    I still exist and still find the forum occasionally. Busy busy

    I wasn't really being serious There's always someone trying to judge the performance of the cars on the basis of the launch photos.

    The black basis is nice but that silver color definitely shouldn't be there. It is too common and looks like a cheap-cola imitation of another team(s). Fresh green was much better. It should've been orange instead of silver and green instead of orange.
