News just in, Kubicas crashed his rally car and has been airlifted to hospital... urk, not the way to start a season. Bruno Senna is the reserve, be interesting to see him in a quick car.

A couple of things-

McLaren site showing footage of the launch, plus a CG 3D model you can pan around, zoom in/out and even drive (in a fashion!). Some interesting parts/ideas that you can't pick out from the static shots.

heh that Mclaren hing is cool:

New virgin: Er.... well if the way it looks are anything to go by, they're screwed. Looks like last years car with blown diffuser.

Low nose too.... and midgets for drivers, photochop anyone?

So car designed 100% computer no wind tunnel looks very different to all the others... bet they used a Mac...

Muppets, who is going to be confused by that.

Dear Mr Ford,

I went and bought one of you're new F-150 trucks, shame it only came in red, and the price! $5,000,000 dollars was a bit more than i was expecting. On the trip home I noticed a few strange quirks, no indicators, no brake lights, infact no lights of any kind, and they exhaust noise is terrible.

Then we get to the load capacity...

etc...
etc...

Its bollocks, total bollocks.
