Re: 2017 Pre-Season Testing Thread

Or perhaps "people" have been around for a few years to witness pre-season test sessions that did not provide a true picture of the pecking order.

Today Fernando Alonso, aged 76, came close to winning that elusive third WDC but just missed out by half a point after dragging h...

They'll make it even more boring somehow, don't you worry about that. If the shirt is anything to go by it seems that they've decided to remove all forms of colour and design. Didn't McLaren run a poll where people could vote on their preferred livery after Vodafone left and after all the fan fare ...

That seems like a big win for the new boss at McLaren. I wonder is they move was in play before Ron left or if it is a new signing by the new leadership.

If its a new signing then would look very good for Zac Brown.
