It's not great, but it's not quite as bad as some of the previous mockups of a finger nose.
McLaren have recruited Ciaron Pilbeam from Lotus F1 Team as chief race engineer
He only lasted at Lotus for 1 season then? Who does he replace, Phil Prew?
Wonder if this is part of the Ron effect already?
Doesn't seem like people are being paid, hence everyone jumping from the sinking ship.
A €100m of the debt is to the Genii group (or whatever they are called). In that regard it's no different to Ferrari borrowing from Fiat. So i'm not understanding why there is a big problem. The Genii group aren't suddenly (not just yet anyway) going to call the debt in and wind up their own team.

Double points for the last race confirmed. Completely throws away the hardwork the leading driver and team have achieved up to the penultimate race then. What a farce.
Just when people thought the stepped noses looked ugly, they go one better.
My god I wish they'd think these nose rule changes through before finalizing them.
Ugh. How on Earth they went ahead with that when it was pretty much met with 99% negativity is beyond me. The FIA really do live on their own little island.
The proposal - the idea of F1 supremo Bernie Ecclestone - was raised at a meeting of the sport's bosses but no attempt was made to overturn it.
However, none of the teams chose to make a major issue of the plan at the meeting, probably because they felt it was not worth falling out with Ecclestone over.
What time is McLaren launch tomorrow. 6pm-10am shift tonight![]()
