That McLaren Chrome livery looked so nostalgic (i.imgur.com)

I had my doubts when they announced it, and first pictures didn’t look that great to be honest. But once I saw it on track, just wow.

Together with their performance, really makes me feel nostalgic to the good old days.

It really did look great on track. I’d be all for them making it permanent.

Let's see them bring back the Marlboro McLarens, now that's nostalgia...

It did look much better on track than under studio lighting/renders. But I didn't personally feel much nostalgia, it looked too different.

The chrome looked great!

Would prefer to see less of the browser logo though. It clashes hard against the chrome.

I didn’t like it, the Papaya and Chrome didn’t go well together.
