They've gone from having one of the best liveries to one of the worst. And with their testing issues, I'm struggling to maintain my McLaren hype



Totally agree, the launch livery was delicious, now it just looks like a mess :(

If that McLaren is sponsored by Android, I'm pretty sure they'll have to reboot it at the pitstops, to mantain a decent performance.

That car might require an update mid-race, which is concerning

If I were given the choice of having my first, last, or middle name be Larbalestier, or have my full name be Dick Trickle.... I'd take Dick Trickle, thank you.

So super sub Hulkenberg will be stepping into Vettel's seat as he's tested positive for the C word

just like when a football team launches a new kit, with a good looking jersey, but then they go to their first match looking like a F1 car embedded with sponsor logos

They will add extra fuel capacity that the car will doggedly refuse to make use of.

Hulkenberg is the Roberto Moreno of this century.

This pleases me as it replicates a lot of the issues I see when LEGALLY STREAMING F1 races on websites

Now I won't know if the stream has trouble or it's just the McLaren on screen :lol:

OMG how woke F1 has become that the drivers don't even have freedom of speech to express themselves using whatever language they wish. CANCEL THIS SPORT NOW! :roll:

If the car was sponsored by apple, it'd look really good but every time they wanted to refuel it the team would have to buy another adapter for their fuel nozzle at an extortionate price
Then the pits to driver radio frequency would be changed every 5 laps, again at a high price.
Then if a driver had a mirror crack, an entire new car would have to be purchased as they'd lock out the ability to change anything on the car without sending it back to the factory

If it was sponsored by Samsung it'd fold neatly into quarters to be able to fit into the pit lane and garage better, but people would still be wary of using this technology.

LOL brand wars
