My CFD eyes are having a good feeling about this McLaren. The Alfa can be a real challenger or a real disaster, or maybe one of those cars that shine in one or two circuits, like the Force Indias a few years ago, when they were backmarkers but got podium finishes at Spa, for example.
Aside from the front wing, the rest of the Alfa car is more or less "run of the mill"... they clearly blew most of their budget on the front wing and that airbox.
Its been said in Brazil that Petrobras might bail out.
HAHA!Let's hope it's better than last years efforts...
I read (don't remember where) that the designers were told to go crazy.

Well, they did have Coca-Cola as a sponsor for like 2 races last year.
I really enjoy Marc Priestley's analyses. He's very well-versed with the technical aspect of F1 and has a clear passion for the sport.
Bleh, little detail on that McLaren. Would have been interesting to compare the floor on that vs the Merc.
Section behind the front wing looks fairly complex though.

It would be nice if McLaren actually scored a big title sponsor.
I subscribed to his channel when he was only getting like a 2000 views per video.
Glad to see his channel growing because I actually like his analysis and background stuff more than Autosport and even Scarbs who was my number F1 info dumper before he got big.
Once Marc did the RB14 car analysis I knew I had to click that bell.
50 to 100k views per video now.
So true its impossibly skinny, Adrian Newey is a madman an absolute madman.
Please Honda let this engine be stable and Redbull should have this season in bag for third place.
I love the bargeboard area on that McLaren. The new front wing rules don't seem like a big deal at first but considering the entire car is designed around what the front wing does with the air flow whoever gets it right will have a huge advantage.
Plus a bald tubby bloke in orange happy slapping the paddock? I'm down for it.
For the folks in the USA... There's a sale on F1 TV Pro. 50% off using code F1TV50.
Not sure how long it will last. I just signed up.

I'm really hoping Renault get their act together and Ricciardo manages to stick it to RB this year, personally.
Even though you can't extend your subscription with it (mine is still active from last year until april), you can add a second sub and profit from the rebate anywhere, not just the USA.
Worth it at that price imo... it's less than 3$ a month!
Saw a tweet saying sale ends feb 17th.
I want to renew but i want a fire tv app or smarttv app.
Are all races still being broadcast on ESPN (2?)?
If not I'll probably do this.
I would like a Roku app or an Apple TV app. For now I'll just have to watch on my laptop or iPad.
I have no idea. I have been too poor to afford cable my whole life. And then when I had the money to afford cable, the streaming services took off. So I still don't have cable. So... no clue if all the races are on ESPN.
Hmm. Is that for a yearly sub? Any idea if it'd work via the iOS app store somehow? Because I think that's the only way I'm able to subscribe to it.
Yes. Races are commercial free and all the practice sessions and qualy are available on espn3. Hence, I didn't buy the subscription.
yes a years sub ( choose f1tv pro not f1 access) and yes you can pay through the app store. Ios and google play which is what i will do because F1 tv doesnt allow paypal and i dont use creditcards in germany.
Having access to all onboard cameras and live uncensored team radio and being able to use splitscreen is awesome. The only thing missing are TV apps but iam sure they will be ready soon.
also the huge library of old races is awesome if you are a F1 fan. Watching Schumacher and Co. is such a joy.

That code works somehow too? I didn't know if you could apply discounts to app store stuff or not.
looks like you cant put in any code in the phone app... only on the website and there you can only pay with creditcards.
fail.
Look at that rake!Let's hope it's better than last years efforts...
Yeah, the commercial free aspect was the deciding factor for me. My fiance wanted a live TV subscription again, so we went with YouTube TV, and then I'll be able to watch all the races that way.
Great up-close look at the new Mclaren.
I hope they've built a decent car this year as I really like the look of this machine.

This unofficial design looks so much better tho:
I thought that was a Williams for a second.

Massive air intakes compared to a lot of others. Interesting.
Can't seem to see the nose inlet either.

Cars in the next test will be different anyway. We could see massive changes in Melbourne as well.
That Ferrari nose looks a bit like what McLaren had earlier. Not sure if that's a good sign.

Well, McLaren have abandoned that concept and are now running with a Mercedes style bib / cape... Yeah.
