Honestly quite ugly and won't happen anyway.

Same here, not good, looks like a Galaxy chocolate bar.

Not a huge fan of that. Agree it does look like a galaxy caramel .

Some other concepts I have seen are below.

There's way more orange still on this years car, the second Tim Holmes will be about the closest of those.

You're right. They've focused the entire brand around that now and there's no getting rid of it soon.

There's a breeze of hope surrounding Woking

Marc Cox (Number 1 Mechanic for McLarenF1):
We've had a few horrible years at McLaren but I have a good feeling about this season. 2 new drivers, both of which are top notch and a team full of people new and old who are desperate for change. Keep the faith

Its always good news to hear that the team is upbeat for the coming season

Tasks for the team for the season?

Mileage from the opening practice session. All 8 days of testing with at least 100 laps each, then just keep pushing the design of the car until Melbourne.

They had plenty of time to rework the chassis to not only address its shortcomings, but to be as prepared as possible for the new regs. They are getting a massively upgraded Renault power unit.

I honestly think 2019 Mclaren will be over a second per lap faster than it was in 2018. Will that be enough, considering the deficit was 1.7 seconds, and if the new regulations slow the cars down a few tenths relative to 2018. They may be competitive enough to have a season long scrap with Renault for 4th best.

If Mclaren can start the season under a second from the top, that would be encouraging.

They'd be happy if they end the season a second from the top tbfh.

True.... it is, after all, a 5 year plan.
