Report: Mercedes, McLaren to change colors in 2015 | Autoweek Wish McLaren would do a combo white and orange.
Orange was the colour of McLaren in Bruce's time, and during the CanAm campaign. Orange was officially the colour of Dutch cars, as seen on De Beaufort's F1 Porsche, or Ben Pon's 904GT Porsche, and recently Spyker F1.
F1 needs better livery, sponsors or not, to have more contrast between the cars. I especially liked the Simtek livery, Jaguar with the big logo on the side, and the 7-UP Jordan. I'm hope McLaren are really moving away from silver, too similar to Mercedes IMO. Image Unavailable, Please Login
Rumors only. Started by the king of false rumors, Omnisport. Maybe they'll be right about this one but I doubt it
Well, it's being pushed by Honda, so it makes lots of sense that they would want to differentiate themselves from silver colours. White with some hints of orange wouldn't harm anybody, would it?
Took someone else's concept of the McHonda, added more orange in place of the silver. I can fux with that, although I would prefer colors more in the range of blue/teal/turquoise, metallic paints too. Image Unavailable, Please Login
Seems a little darker than the McLaren papaya/historic orange they used on the test cars in the 2000s.
here's another "photochop" I did on someone else's rendering with more random logos on it. Image Unavailable, Please Login
Honestly don't know who that color belongs to. Just a concept I found using google. I just added random logos. Should I have put a prancing horse on there instead? Red Bull?
Well, there are many renderings out there, some are nicer than others. I'm not saying that I dislike it, it looks alright, though it looks more like a Sauber from '96. What I'm saying is that those colours there are probably not reminiscent of a McLaren. If you asked me, I'd prefer something like this instead: Image Unavailable, Please Login
