New nose for McLaren for Spain onwards, apparently a bit radical.

Although I'm doubting it's going to be as radical as the Williams walrus or Renault 2 prong thing: http://grandprix.com/news/mclaren-b-car ... -nose.html

Is it only the nose that is new for McLaren?

They said the proper 2018 car would come in this race.

It's a weird nose. I like it from some angles.

That’s... interesting.

But oh dear, it’s like 2008 all over again

Pretty sure that isn't going to improve their pace, at least not significantly.

The Ferrari DRS mirror/wing is the stupidest bit of aero I’ve ever seen.

It makes the X-wings from 1997 look good.

Unsurprisingly Magnussen has been summoned to the stewards for the incident with Leclerc.

I had hoped to get some good OnBoard laps from Kubica but he rarely popped up on any of Sky's feeds so this was the only lap I was able to get.

Magnussen defends like an idiot at times, but surely he wasn't trying to block during a practice session? I'm guessing he wasn't paying attention, or was trying to move out of the way far too late. Lucky that Leclerc was paying attention or else that could have been huge.

Having seen the onboard on the F1TV app, he checked his mirros atleast twice on the straight. Then again shortly before he moved to the right... looks a bit intentional

So I just noticed the start is scheduled for 3.10 PM CET. Is it like that for all European races?
