2018 McLaren F1 Team - Renault

Really like what Ferrari did with the air intake on the side pods. I know it's a carry over from last year's design but they've pushed it a little further. Hopefully McLaren have done something like that.

They've made the entry on the front of the side pod small while creating a similar size hole from above. Not sure if that's creating some kind of venturi effect and pulling down large amounts of air from above while decreasing drag.

The McLaren social media guys having a bit of fun to try and throw people off the colour of the car. Colourised the launch teaser from orange to blue. Nice try though!

He is poking fun at people who said "McLaren is the new Williams". It's called sarcasm.

Aaaah - missed that

I see similarities, as I see in many parts in many teams. But I don't see a real copy.

I’m guessing this is the correct place for livery talk...

Why the black??? The orange & blue is perfect... why the black?

I think the colour is nice, and the halo, despite being a strong contrast, actually seems less obvious. The lack of sponsors also makes it look better, F1 cars really do look like dodgy websites sometimes, the sponsor logos really ugly up the lines.

Wasn't too sure about the blue in the Studio shots. But in the Garage Picture it looks quite good. I'll reserve final judgement until i've seen it in Daylight. But it looks promising.

I'm pleased to see more sponsors on the car than last year

But the biggest is missing. I think that hurts.

[marvin78]

Yes. The sponsor Honda ist missing and so is the load of money.
