The parts of the livery that will presumably be red have been concealed by tape, but here are some shots of the new McLaren.

i actually think thats the MP4-21..cos the launch gambit is gonna have fernando drive the mp4-21 around the streets of valencia first in vodafone livery before the launch of the mp4-22...it really does look like the mp4-21

Mon Jan 15, 2007 4:35 am

yes actually it is an mp4-21

It has number 1 written on it because of Alonso.. only a theory

And it's MP4-22, not MP4/22 :).

Whatever it is, I'll just call it "Third Place."

Number 1 is the perfect number for a Mclaren. Sadly I'm unable to see the rest of the car since it has been taped.

As I have an exam this afternoon, the news about the launch can be a bit later than normal, Tomba will try to put the news online as soon as possible from work and the rest will be online when I get back :wink:

It are indeed pics of the MP4-21, with the new vodafone livery! Alonso and Hamilton will drive around with that car at a street circuit in Valencia and than the new car will be launched!

Not very sure, but did somebody ever saw Alonso test with Mclaren in the winter? But I can assure you that the car with number 1 on it is Alonso's car. :wink:

if the tape part has read and vodafone on it.. that its a total mockery of the silver livery...

mclaren have been testing all winter with N0s 1 & 2, regardless of drivers
