McLaren Getting a New Paint Job?

[PG_Gabriel]

This article is a great little read, but one part caught my eye.


"Chassis #03 was the running car for the first Bahrain test, and will also undertake testing duties this week – it then hurries back to MTC, gets dressed (ie: it gets a new paintjob) and is rushed out to Melbourne"

Does this just mean the car gets refinished? Or do they have a whole new race paint job that differs from what we have seen in testing? A new title sponsor maybe?

McLaren usually tests under a different colour from the racing season.

Too bad, it looked really nice

Yeah maybe Honda's 'Earth Dreams',  now wouldn't that mess with Ron's ultra neat & sharp tendencies.

The test paint was notably lacking in sponsor names. That's probably what will be added.
