The 2022 and 2023 liveries have been absolutely awful. And Iโ€™m a McLaren fan. 2021 was the last decent livery and even that was pretty whelming.

Just so meh.....

[โ€“] TeamSheep 1 points 2 years ago

My exact thoughts...

I'm not sure this is better than the white attempt.

The Monaco tribute livery has been the best one in recent memory. Iโ€™m not enthusiastic about this one.

[โ€“] [email protected] 9 points 2 years ago

Wish theyโ€™d made it the actual classic livery, this seems so half-assed

[โ€“] MouldyPriestASSHOLE 7 points 2 years ago (1 children)

If only they went full chrome!

[โ€“] Rob 1 points 2 years ago

Or replaced the orange with red. But I think full chrome wouldโ€™ve been best. This is just ugly.

Then againโ€ฆ The normal livery is awful as well. Those Chrome logos arenโ€™t doing them any favours.

[โ€“] jamesorlakin 5 points 2 years ago

Oh, well that's not exciting. Those wheel cover stickers are still incredibly ugly.

Special liveries are so not special anymore. The Gulf livery was amazing. Every other โ€žspecialโ€œ livery was so underwhelming.

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Firefox would be a better colour match

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

I guess the sponsors will be happy with this.

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

And itโ€™s horrible :(

[โ€“] Benjamin_Kenobi 2 points 2 years ago

Let's hope it doesn't have a RAM issue.

Hurhur.

[โ€“] sammeeeeeee 2 points 2 years ago

I mean it's alright

I actually really really like it. The chrome plays off the orange bits really well, and I like how the black through running gives really good contrast to both the colors for once.

Ive seen some criticism of them not going full chrome, but it would look far clumsier if they did. Going entirely one strong color like orange made for some real ugly cars imo, was never a fan of the 18 onwards Mclarens. Ferrari makes the red work by contrasting it with the white or black depending on the season, its far harder with papaya orange but this one is good.

It's understandable to still have the orange on the sides. Changing it to red pretty much gives free advertising to Vodafone.
