My bad on the Canada crash then. But if everybody here is so sure that they were pretty equal, OK I guess that was the case then. I've never really liked Villeneuve, so that might've influenced my memories about him somewhat :P

Wow... I hope there's something ontop of that rear wing!

You should look at that picture very closely...

WIIIIIIIIIIIINNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR OMG

Is that the actual car? Cos as far as I know its not been released yet...

---

It's so ugly that it looks good.

EDIT: So the launch begins in half an hour. But will it begin with all kinds of PR talk or will they actually be taking the cover off in half an hour?

It seems that McLaren made an error, due to that error, this picture has already been released of the new car. In my opinion it looks nice :D. Can't wait for other pictures!

I knew we were expecting longer cars this year, but is McLaren's idea of locking out the front row to just cover every grid slot?

I presume that's just a (very) wide angle lens, because there's no way on earth that it's 18 miles long.

It certainly doesn't look great.

btw, Santander has gone from the airbox, so they have reduced (or removed) their McLaren deal.
