Its electric blue and is legitimately the best colour ever stop calling it purple

Now answer why it's even on the car lol

Black wings would have looked amazing but instead some random loving deep dark blue instead.

Great brand synergy between McLaren and Sensodyne by including that splash of blue for them. #forzaron

The blue is loving rad is why it's on the car. The slate grey stuff looks better on track. Comparing with last season it's hilarious how much smaller all the intakes are now they don't have to cool the Honda down.

The FIA have made a rules adjustment to stop engine manufacturers restricting engine modes for customer cars.

Supplied power units must be (unless declined by the customer) run with identical software, oils and fuel, so that they are capable of being operated in precisely the same way as the factory team.

So basically Mercedes can't lock customer teams out of Q3 mode with software and nobody can burn oil additives without their customers knowing about it as well.

Customers can still choose to run their own fuels and oils if they choose

In the mclaren doc there was a nice lad who was really sad about loving Buttonīs Monaco race. He should work for a good team like Scuderia Ferrari.

The Woking Stink is on him sadly. Probably can't be hired by any other team. Will have to go work at a Tesco in Woking or something.
