Livery looks more like a Marussia than McLaren, wasted opportunity.

Out of curiosity, does anyone know the secrets of how they mount the front wing with such a small contact area? I'm wondering if they reinforce the mounts with titanium? The Mercedes is the same sort of solution. Very clever.

.....and don't say Gorilla Glue....or no nails....

Seriously though, no idea, been asking myself the same question already.

Looks like Dutch orange to me. Is The Stoff secretly Dutch?

If I see SpongeBob in the pitlane at Melbourne our suspicions will be confirmed

Ask Haas

I think that looks amazing... always nice to see a new scheme and this one is great... looks fast... if it is or not we will have to wait and see

 

[Andy 'Mars Bar' Graham]

Personally I think it's the best looking car revealed so far (I do love orange cars though. I loved the Spyker, Virgin, Marussia and Arrows cars in orange so I like this)

Anybody ever wondered what a piston-engined GA plane would look designed by an F1 team while meeting similar wingspan restrictions?

You're probably thinking of the Gee Bee R2.

That thing has conventional wings. I was wondering what F1 cars designers could give it for the wings. Maybe some light Cessna could be made just two Formula 1 cars wide?

 

[Steve Worrell]

Not that shade of orange.

We want orange! We want orange! We want orange!......Not that orange

 

[Marian Zelenka]

I absolutely don't care if the livery is ugly. If only the car would be fast because frankly it's the high time.

 

[aphidgod]

Lol @ the complaining about the orange. If you're not old enough or educated enough to associate that particular shade of orange with McLaren, well...

Are there any new cars without fins? I'm rooting for those cars.

 

[James Cook]

Love the livery! Nice to see McLaren return to a traditional team colour.

There was too much metallic silver and grey on the grid. This will stand out, as a race car should.

The car itself looks fine. All modern F1 cars are quite ugly compared to the simpler, cleaner lines of 25-30 years ago.

 

[MoerasGrizzly]

Looks better than last year, but does anyone else think it's odd for CNN to sponsor a race team?

I hadn't noticed that one yet, but it does make sense actually: CNN is not the BBC, it's a corperate entity like Sky News. On the other hand, it's an american news company and the US has never really been interested in F1. I'd expect them to sponsor Haas.

You want an airplane with downforce?

Zack said it will be fast durign the 2018 season

 

[paracletus]

The orange is good, but far too much black.
Should've kept it simple

 

[Ole Marius Myrvold]

It's a Marussia!
