Why would Haug go to McLarens launch? They are rivals now? Is it standard for the bosses to go to customer cars launches?

Got to be veru accurate,... it wil take some time... Better checking up the tech specs perhaps... I did this based on the wheel size

Mercedes still has a stake in McLaren. Even if it is to be reduced.

Looks like there's about an inch or so in it. Not a huge difference to be honest. I think it's more interesting how they've packaged the engine/fuel tank. Macca seem to have their engine further back, maybe to keep the fuel tank as central as possible so when the load goes down the balance won't change that much?

What a brilliant strream, watching it on a 37' TV... cool.gif

This is a barrel of laughs isn't it?

Least the stream has been working flawlessly, probably due to the fact almost anybody with an interest has already seen pictures of the new motor.
