Management needs to steal that Malboro deal from Ferrari so they can bring back the ICONIC livery. Not this orange ****. Granted it will be better than what they had last year.

To me, orange cars now remind me of Arrows and Spyker

That's why it needs to be papaya and not orange. Papaya is unmistakably McLaren. Orange ain't.

We could go back to listing reasons why Fred only has 2 championships...

Imagine if he had gone to RB for 2009 and 2010.

Definitely not an MP4/4. Snorkel on top = Non-turbo car.

I'd guess MP4/5 since it was the only other car they drove together.

Looks good but they need to do something with the numbers now that it's harder to see helmets . White on silver is not gonna cut it.
