Default McLaren Mercedes Launch

The launch today of the Vodafone McLaren Mercedes team marks the start of a new era for the team, including the arriving of two new drivers with Fernando Alonso and Lewis Hamilton and the new sponsor: Vodafone. Here are the first pictures of the MP4-22.

I'm no fan of Mercedes, but I have to say, this car looks way the heck better this year.

NOTE: I have seen several other sites hosting these images and I have to say, the ones I linked are the only ones that appear to be more orange and silver and not red and silver. I suspect the real look of this new MP4-22 is indeed RED and silver...

I have just never been a Mercedes fan, I guess you can blame that on my 17 some years of being a part of BMW CCA
I thought you were a Renault fan, errrm i mean a Ferrari fan, wait i meant a Toyota fan...i can't keep track any longer.
