McLaren launch orange MCL32

McLaren launch orange MCL32

McLaren have launched their 2017 car, the MCL32 and as expected, it wears an orange livery. It also features black and silver but more than likely all the talk will be about the orange paint.

"I think it is a beautiful piece of art and I can't wait to see Fernando [Alonso] and Stoffel [Vandoorne] take it around the track," were the words of new executive director Zak Brown. 

"For me its been quite easy, they [McLaren] have welcomed me, my challenge is the same as everyone else's which is to get a fast race car on the track to get back to winning."

The team haven't won a Grand Prix since Brazil 2012 and look to regain composure and push onwards for during 2017. Brown thinks that once McLaren gets back on top, they will be hard to topple.

"2016 wasn't a great year by McLaren's standards but it was forward progress and I think that's what we need to see in 2017 and once we get there we will be pretty hard to knock back down."

    My god. The most ugly looking livery of them all. What a disappointment.

    Im not sure what to make of it. I sort of like it and sort of dont like it. I definitely preferred last year's livery. But then again, looks aint all. Either way, its still a beauty compared to Force India's car. But will it be competitive?

      I admit it gets better the more you look at it :p It depends from what angle you look at it tho, the side is pretty ok, because of that random white paint I guess. From some other angles I find it horrendous. But it's also because I'm not really a fan of orange.

      If it's quick, I am sure I'll start liking it though.

      Hehe I feel ya. Im not very fond of orange either, but from the side it is pretty good, and honestly I think it will likely look better "IRL" compared to these images. Also, McLaren's colour has long been orange, so I understand why they want to have that colour. Wont be my favourite livery this year though.

    All those resources and all they can come up with is a 2007 Spyker.
