Special livery and suits for Monaco



McLaren needs a new livery designer, it's getting boring

Remember when McLaren used to do good special liveries....

I want to see race suits like tuxedos as the special design for Monaco. Have some fun.

The livery looks whatever, but honestly, the whole shape of a McLaren car for this year and the proportions are simply beautiful. I like the short wheelbase look, looks like a cougar ready to pounce

I don't get why they tease with old cars (Marlboro and West liveried ones) and then drop a modern McLaren livery?

Hmmm...not know if i hate it or I like it. But is not like I can change something.
Only one point to make, this livery show me that the "standard livery" black area under Gemini logo can have another layout. As is stands is so terrible empty space. No logo, no color, no nothing.

It’s certainly not ‘special’ more of a mild variation

I do prefer the glossy papaya chrome, rather than the standard matte papaya sections. Wish that was standard.

Maybe one day they'll get the message that we like chrome things lol

Sure would be nice. I'm so fed up with all the matte finish.

The special liveries of the past few years were designed by the guy from OKX, I remember him posting about it. I think they did a few a year, as part of tbe deal. If I remember correctly.

I'm not sure if this one is designed by him or us.

It's a shame LEGO helmets are these one offs instead of regular ones. At least Lando's is halfway his normal one.
