 Thanks for that Admin, much appreciated and very true as the old saying goes .. "If it looks right - it IS right" .. so, as the new car is such a good looking one compared to the rest of the field, then it goes without saying that the new McLaren should be right up there at the start methinks ?? Hope so !!  Kev

Having looked at the ferrari and force india this morning I have to say Mclaren have the best looking car, however having got the car that sits lower compared to last year I wonder how good the mclarens will be in the wet.

just looked at all the other cars for 2012 that have been released so far and am i right in thinking that mclaren and lotus are the only teams that seem to have put some thought into the new regs regarding the nose tip not being above 550mm from the ground as apposrd to last seasons 650mm and not just put a big cheese wedge on the front so that the susspension arms didnt need to be lowered or shortend to get rid of the mouse bait.LOL god they are but ugly and shurly it has to mes up the aerodynamics

WOOHOO - get in there !! Great post by the way Stan and some nice food for thought - can't wait for Melbourne, not long now !!!  Kev
