The McLaren MP4-21 - 2006 F1 Contender

[Kapel]

Y the orange colour??

Its the original McLaren colour Kappy

Hmm,yes i recollect..but i dont like the colour

I just hope they return to balck & silver

Yes i hope backmarker ur correct

[Kapel]

Sorry to tell you, Alonso in the Renault will dominate Kapel
He did a race simulation the other day without any problems while the others are still trying to sort out what to do with their cars (especially McLaren )
And I haven't heard of any Renault V8 blowing up unlike the Mercedes, the Honda, the Cosworth, the Toyota and the Ferrari

The Renault will be FAST and RELIABLE but the rest will be either FAST OR RELIABLE.

I wouldnt want to argue yet JayVee.But i seriously have my doubts that any car for tht matter is ready for Bahrain already.
I think i read somewhere that Fisi had some problems in testings?

Mayb Renault are giving PT to Alonso in testing

Yes Fisichella did have some problems but no where near the problems any other team has had so far. And you'd want one or two problems to appear

Alonso is just so good. Didn't you get that from last season. PT why ? Alonso is leaving them at the end of the season. Some actually think that Fisichella will be getting PT. I doubt either happens at Renault but even if they do think of giving Fisichella PT, two races later they will realise their mistake when Alonso still beats him

[Kapel]

Is the colour of the Mclaren 2006 contentder gonna remain orange??I'm getting depressed seeing that colour.

[Graham Ross]

I say they will switch back to Silver and Black but I don't really care if it stays orange. They did race in Orange ages ago. What is depressing is the pace of the car.

Montoya in the new car had another engine failure overnight and was more than 2 seconds slower than Alonso

This is bad

This is sad

we've got a month to put a good package on going.

on the other habd i saw the log of some tests and Montoya was doing the longest sprints, so it was fine then to be down on the timesheets...

GO MONTOYA!!!!!!!!!!!

08 Feb, 2006: (Itv)
"The surprise of the day was Juan Pablo Montoya, whose third fastest time gave McLaren a welcome boost after the MP4-21’s recent lack of both speed and reliability."



Hope!

you see Ross?? i told u!

[JayVee]

You cling to hope.

Now 3rd fastest is good huh ?

At least it is better than 9th I suppose

That was probably the only lap they revved the Mercedes to its max

...Rear wing problem on Kovalainen's R26...

[JayVee]

I don't expect the Renault to be problem free in testing

But have you noticed the lap times

[rah]

Sure have, isn't Williams the fastest at the moment?

[JayVee]

Alonso smashed that time last night.

Ed ?

[rah]

Alonso smashed that time last night.

Ed ?

ahhh, i have not caught up yet.

[Ed]

We are a bit delayed today sorry . Report and times will be up soon

I don't expect the Renault to be as reliable as it was...in 2005.
as in tets, as in the race, furthermore.


fast? yes.
