Well to be honest, their silver-grey livery looked EXACTLY like the west-era, so I really don't see why they couldn't do a red-white combo.

It would be epic if Canon came back. Japanese connection and also red /white corporate colors

Edit: ha! Weird...

Not sure what's weird about that......you realise that's a massively old McLaren car yea? DC's car from the years of WEST. Or was you pointing out how the corporate colours fit in with a Red-White livery and that Canon/McLaren have a past together (and quite possibly still)?

This is exactly what I was thinking the other day.

That would suggest white-black-red.

I wish i was greeted like that when i come to Work. :shock: :shock:

And i, too, think the livery will be white with red and black. But i'm not sure how much it will be a reminiscence to the old Livery.

What about a Red engine cover, Black nose & wings and then White in-between?
Or is that totally reading too much into what I think is subliminal messages?

"It ain't over till the fat lady sings"

So, untill Mclaren actually shows the car, we can keep chatting and fantasizing about :mrgreen:

And, if i understood correctly, weren't they going to do a Orange test livery? is there any chance they'll
show a orange reveal car, but will have a different livery for the actual season?

would that mean we won't know until melbourne? :mrgreen:

I'm sure they'll do that just to have us keep speculating until 13/3 :D

The Mercedes had better aero though... surely it would look more like that.

In all the graphics posted off late including the following one, there are not 3 but 4 colors used - White, Red, Black and Grey. Looks like the livery will be based on these 4 colors

though the red has a more orange teint to it :mrgreen:

i say take the force india livery,
replace what's grey on the force india with white,
replace what's orange on the force india with black
replace what's black on the force india with red
and somehwere there'll be some grey

i dunno though, could be anything, really.

somebody please leak the new Mclaren like Williams was leaked 6 days before the launch.
Except instead of us discovering this just 1 or 2 days in before the actual launch,
rather give us the leak today!!!! [-o< :mrgreen:

and we allow orange!
