Yup!

So do we know on the title sponsor and livery yet? It all seems to have gone quiet lately

[acosmichippo]

I thought they said there will be no title sponsor.

Aren't they going to announce the new CEO this Thursday?

And more ... maybe.

You aren't giving a press conference just for a new CEO. Expect something like a new road car, sponsor for f1, and/or mid-/longterm plans to be announced.

I was also thinking on the 650S. But then that was officially unveiled today. Are they still having a press conference 6'th of march?

What do you think, will Mclaren have a large update package at Melbourne? I expect FW, RW, floor, sidepods, engine cover.
I really can't imagine thay they will go only with a FW, while all the other teams will have many new parts on the car sincer Bahrain's last 2 days.

Yes, it has nothing to do with McLaren Automotive.

Okay. But no one has given a source. And I havent seen it myself. So where have you seen the invitation to the press conference?

[Pup]

James Allen mentioned it in passing - complained that it was the same day as Williams was unveiling their new livery. I think he may have only mentioned it in a comment on his blog.

Has anyone found any sources indicating what the upgrades for Bahrain that are now going to be introduced for Melbourne were supposed to be? As only the front wing made it and even that was never properly tested on the Sunday due to technical issues. The latter half of the final test seemed very unproductive for McLaren.

Could someone explain to me what the purpose is of the material within the wheel rim?

Is this the only update McLaren have for the first race, in a season with huge rule changes, and supposedly the biggest budget they have ever had! They've had weeks since the first test and another two weeks until the opening race. What about the updates jenson said they had in the pipeline for the start of the season?

[Thunder]

You guys need to calm down a little.

First not all Updates are visible, they can be Internally, Floor, the Brakes / Suspension.... or as in this Test Season mainy cooling and reliability related. As the Macca already had a big hot Air Exit from the start it's possible they worked on internal Air Flow most of the Time.

And second, wait until the EU Races start before you Doom them.
