2023 - McLaren Formula 1 Team

[mwillems]

The rumour from the camp of common sense is that no one knows how they compare to anyone else, if they have baked in any errors into the car or if the correlation really did work!

[Emag]

Rumors from the AMR camp are placing that car in a very competitive position in terms of pecking order predictions.

This is coming from a team which probably invented the word bullish though, so remains to be seen how that will translate.

If there will be a battle for 4th, so far it seems like Alpine and AM will be the main competitors at this point, so we are getting 2020 flashbacks I guess.

That's a valid glass-half-empty view. The glass-half-full view is that the rumors from the Merc camp are that the car is in serious trouble so we could be in with a shot at P3 if Oscar can be competitive. WHO KNOWS?!

Well, given where we ended last year, your point of view is more of a glass completely full and spilling instead of half-full

Since Lawrence Stroll took over Force India, every season starts with same high expectations. Granted, they've got a guy who knows a lot about producing fast cars, but will that be enough? Without the declarations of AMR, McLaren would have sounded measured, but instead, they're "downbeat". We'll see in a few days, but I'm more inclined to believe that it'll be close. I can't see anyone being so far ahead of the leading midfield.

Lol, where is my "so you're telling me there's a chance" meme?

‘That car’ as in the Aston Martin?

Yes, sorry if I wasn't clear.

We will get plenty soon enough

McLaren still running the same floor used in the filming day… I speculate that they are using it to create a base and allow themselves to make a performance comparison when upgrades are installed.

It has begun. Curious to see where each one stands.

Not something that will be answered today (or at all during testing) I’m afraid

Has the MCL60 taken to the track yet?

Yes, it was on track before the red flag
