    McLaren MP4-27

    The McLaren MP4-27 was unveiled today. Looks to me that it IS possible to produce decent looking F1 cars even with the 2012 rules. It's good to know it won't all be Caterham looking cars on the grid.

    It will be interesting to see how the testing goes on February 7. Hopefully both McLaren and Ferrari will get off to a better start this year or lest be as competitive as they were at the end of last year.

    Hmm, I don't know. I think the front wing needs a few more elements.

    Pretty nice. I always think with McLaren's color scheme it's hard to make a bad looking car.

    My guess is you (1) have not seen the 2012 Caterham & (2) hated the McLaren MP4/26???

    This year's MP4/27 is very similar in appearance & the internet is already full of side by side comparisons of the 2011 + 2012 McLarens

    I'm still thinking if the Caterham photos had any light on them they might look better. Hard to tell in the dark.
