Would basically set them on par with 2018 Ferrari and Merc then. Though reports on engine gains are mostly meaningless..

I wonder if McLaren have taken advantage of the advances in additive manufacturing processes, both of the companies it uses on the spec list have made strides in that area -

Interesting information contained in those links, beyond the small amount of additive manufacturing info.

I really hope the expression of the third guy on the right side does not sum up the car this year.

I would guess McLaren have just shown the team a preview of the Car before everyone else gets to see it tomorrow

[f1rules]

that would be my guess also, also cause another mclaren marketing girl said it was beatiful and we can look forward to tomorrow, so i think they saw it today

Bold statements were being said, i just hope its not another PR stunt. Especially "hold my beer". If the car is not as good looking or fast, they will be verbally demolished right from the start.

I think everyone waiting is going to be pretty happy, major changes on the car around the sidepods and bargeboards.
