A place to discuss the characteristics of the cars in Formula One, both current as well as historical. Laptimes, driver worshipping and team chatter do not belong here.

I think MX meant to say the thread will be locked at that very instant (when the 27 is unveiled) not this very instant (now)

Correct, and I've edited "that" post to clarify.

I can't believe we're at this time of the year already, the winter break went by extremely fast!

Random thought...

McLaren announce that they're showing off the -27A, and that the car that they show off might be border line illegal?

Are we going to see them launch a red herring to get the other teams messing about designing crazy things?

I Think Sidepods are extremely narrow. It is like narrower than the front wheel base

Mp4 25 is a bit different. Am I wrong?

I haven't gone to the school so that I can watch MP4-27 car launch.
I'm very exciting

Not when its the Monza spec like has been said.
As if the new car would be just sitting there! Just so nobody is in doubt here is that spec 25 doing some demo work

Thanks for the link – I was hunting for that picture, I knew I'd seen that un-shark-fin on it before.

Good grief #-o
Became a McLaren fan in the late 70's when I ended up laminating their Kevlar nosecones.
