McLaren MCL36

A place to discuss the characteristics of the cars in Formula One, both current as well as historical. Laptimes, driver worshipping and team chatter do not belong here.

Long time lurker and very infrequent poster...

I have been told that today we will see new front wing, sidepods and sides of the floor.
The car at launch was a 4 month old development model and from the numbers they are seeing if correlation is accurate then the car will be very very quick!

Bring on the shakedown today!
Are you saying the physical car in the studio was a 4 month old development model? Why would they physically make such an old car? Or are you saying the renders are 4 month old development model, that I could understand.

I expect car to look more or less like the car in the studio.
The renders, sorry I should have been clearer.

Not sure if we will even see McLaren run today. Nothing official has come out yet, and it is getting rather late.

Be a shame if they leave it for the test. Wanted to look what (if any) details they hid from the shown car.

If this is the case there are two options:

1, the info given was not correct
2, the car is not ready, they are waiting parts or they have problems #-o

---, did you save it? Maybe they showed something they did not want to.

Can't see anything from that, but it looks almost the same to the launch car.

Front wing endplates however do look new and more like Mercedes/Red Bull
