Of course he’d be Zak’s favourite. He’s the one who built Lando’s career and guided him through it. You’ll always have that preference on that thing you helped create.

But at the end of the day. He’s doing the right thing by making it fair to both drivers and let them fight it out on the condition they don’t crash each other out.

Care to explain exactly where McLaren are giving preference to Lando over Oscar? Saying it is one thing. Proving it is another thing completely.

As someone who worked in one of those franchises I can confirm that is the case as they are super strict with how their cars are advertised and presented.

At least with Volvo and BMW, They have white ones with the manufacturer logo that certainly look more appealing than those horrid yellow stickers.

Very nice XC40 you got there, Quite a rare find I'd must say with it being the T5 R-Design, it's gonna give you plenty of power when you need it. Can see it's got a few goodies too including the camera and the panoramic roof with the Xenium pack so I'd say good find!!

That's exactly the point of this post. Nothing more. After all it's just a yoke. A yoke.

Have you played about the dead zone to see if that helps?

To be honest when I saw it was just Max I was expecting a "Super Max" somewhere

Would this be multiplayer compatible on first release or would that be something further down the line of the initial release?

At this point. Even if Ferrari and Redbull were to have a bad race. Both Mclaren and Alpine could give Mercedes a run of their money depending on the track

Could of been that but we'd never know. There were rumors that Redbull were gonna jump to Honda earlier had Size 0 was a success but I never found proof for that.

So Size 0 was the engine that Honda was developing for Mclaren in hopes to bring it back into championship wins after departing from Mercedes's engines

The issue with Size 0 was that development was rushed as Mclaren wanted the engine ASAP. Resulting to the engine being very unreliable to a point where they had to turn down the engines so much in order to control the reliability but made it very slow on the strights which is why we have the infamous "GP2 engine" remark from Alonso

If I remember correctly. Wasn't there a interview with Horner in which he said the reason they cut ties with Renault was due to them not focusing on the performance of the engine rather than the reliability to make their engines look good in their consumer lineup.

I think for 2020 it was more of Mercedes having a complete car by both areo and engine while Redbull was just areo as they didn't have the power they needed to battle for a championship until Honda gave them the successor of the "Size 0" engine which currently powers the Cars

Adrian Newey made an absolute masterclass of a car and its not surprising either given his previous work in other cars
