Aero problems hold up new Mac?
Seen recently testing at Silverstone, observers noticed some obvious reasons the new Mac is'nt ready to hit the track.
However Michelin remain pleased at how well it's using its tyres, and are unconcerned of any changes to width allowed. . |

Nah, nothing wrong with the aero.... Newey strikes again! But is the side impact test that Mac keeps failing, and the new design is not going to improve things I'm afraid...

This car has to be shipped out of the UK due to the ban on Cigarette advertising.

The owner of that car lives around the corner from me. And, no, not at Ron Dennis' house!

But doesn't MINI belong to BMW these days? It should be white-dark blue-silver...

i heard that the design concept behind the new Mclaren was to make it as small as possible but i think the designers got a bit confused, Frank oviously said "i want a small car" and there you go.
