The mirror effects bring out the height of the car, makes it look tall.   :thbup: to Johnnie Walker :naughty:

Well, it's definitely different, but I like it. Don't like the red and would much prefer the chrome and black, but on the whole it's a good looking livery.

"You just don't mess with Jacques Villeneuve" - Murray Walker, 1997 Hungarian GP.
"When Jacques was with us, he was a very aggressive driver, fiercely competitive, mentally hard as nails. Very quick with it, very gifted. A bright fellow, undoubtedly, very intelligent. He was an absolutely born racing driver - look at the way he'd bang wheels with Michael, pass people on the outside, that kind of thing" -Sir Frank Williams on Jacques Villeneuve
"This year, with BMW, JV's going very well, and I'm pleased for him. Whether or not he'll get a drive next year I don't know, but I hope he does, he's an unusual, and very strong addition to the F1 community. A character." - Sir Frank Williams again on Jacques Villeneuve
The Nojvnof1 2006 driver lineup - Jacques Villeneuve, Nico Rosberg, Christian Klein, Scott Speed.

Its definately different! I would think Mclaren has a little more class so as not to crome dip their chassis! I would absolutely have enjoyed the orange much more.

Brilliant!!!
"Schumacher has said he does not want to do anything bad or for anything bad to happen in this race, so I just hope that is what happens for his sake - but this shows how far Ferrari are prepared to go to help Michael win this Championship."

JV - Oct 25, 1997 - after Saturday Practice in the final round of the 1997 championship at Jerez, Spain. The next day would prove just how far Schumi was willing to go...................

Yeah and you won't see it on fridays either, they'll take it out just before qualifying because they're scared to blow-up

Not a fan. The black/silver livery was very sexy - but these bright red colours aren't attractive at all. F1 has seen much worse though. The plain white Stewart-Fords were very boring!

I just love the old 'wedge' style with the massive air box and the go-kart front wheels :thbup: (and the white isn't bad)

Having seen more pics of mclaren on itv-f1.com I realise that one can see the sponsor names ok. But I still dont like the bright red. Looks like a midland!
