And if McLaren is going to run its car in any livery, then it should either be its current chrome livery or orange. The red and white is just too obviously a branding exercise, but it seems to be the way that Lotus have gone, so why not.

Orange is not my favourite colour, but a McLaren with a Honda engine and that livery would be very refreshing.
Then make it a winning car, convince Kimi or Lewis to return or hire Seb, and any of them winning a chip in that car would be something I'd love to watch.

Bernie, make it happen

In many countries nowadays with cigarette advertising being so limited, we should expect to see historic liveries being rendered in vinyl wraps featuring diseased lungs.

That, or plain white cars with SMOKING KILLS all over them.

I wonder which government could be persuaded to put the money forward for that...?

It makes sense for Honda to enter....especially as from next year, an F1 engine doesn't have to be raced in F1 only.

Indeed. There is talk suggesting that the FIA/WEC will allow F1 engines and their energy recovery systems to be used in sports cars.

Absolutely nothing in the rules at all to stop it happening next year. It's a pretty open secret in the sports car world that Renault was pushing hard for that to happen. Make of that what you will.

Very sensible idea too. Better for engine makers and better for F1 teams.

Was just reported on BBC 5 Live as a partnership next year, rather than 2015.

Is that correct? Didn't see the formal announcement.

Producing few more of them will cost Renault very little for considerable marketing and pay customer mileage.

The circle of life. Honda, to supply the once Mercedes works team. Mercedes, built from the once Honda works team.

Wonder if Honda thinks of Jenson as the girlfriend who you onced dumped. But then she married your sister to be reunited in a freaky kinda way!!

Can McLaren please get serious about the pilot in its 2nd car, and hire a 'Senna-esque' bod... (all eyes to Mr Vettel now please...)

And put Mr Dennis back in charge of the boat...
