Do I see that right, that the front wheels are offset by what seems like 15cm from the most forward part of the front suspension wishbones? That's loving crazy. They either increased the wheelbase by a huge amount without making the car longer, or actually reduced car length without changing the wheelbase. I can't wait for Scarbs to freak out about this. e: this is such a typical McLaren solution, I hope it works better than the butterfly rear suspenion in (IIRC) 2014, because on paper, that was brilliant, but on track, it was a wet fart. Please don't suck, McLaren awesome front suspension.

In your heart you know this was caused by the chassis team using metric and suspension team using imperial and they only realised the day before launch

The Fia should ban McLaren. The colors of the team scream second rate league to me. They could look good on Indy or something like that. #missionwindow

 that front wing is interesting also, with the differenct camera angle, the front suspension looks much more normal than on the renders

Feels Villeneuve posted:Those triangles were a really cool look 6 years ago Let me share some unique Barcelona soccer experience with you, in this very thread, because you are missing the subtlety. Instead of following the ball, follow the off ball movement. Look for triangles to appear, dissolve and then reappear right before your eyes. Watch as player's heads swivel to find the man making the run for the second pass, not the first. Watch the tight control and decision making. Don't appreciate the pass that was made, appreciate the pass that wasn't because it was more difficult and less likely to be successful. Watch the instant pressure applied once the ball is lost. Appreciate the monumental patience and discipline required to maintain possession without making foolish passes for long stretches. Realize that they are making things that are incredibly difficult to do both physically and tactically look so easy that it becomes boring. Or you can just say lol Barcelona matches are boring and hate them.

The McLaren isn't terrible but blue/orange is like the most neutral color scheme possible on a race car and I've literally never liked it.
