Aren't those lights off a Fiat 131 Abarth?

Max!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[PolePosition_1]

I've seen this video before, isn't it a joke with the mechanics always being clumsy etc?

I can't imagine them lights being used, surely on aerodynamics alone they'd be a no go zone.

Thank you , Ron , for having a sense of humour .

This kind of thing is exactly what we need at the moment .

These last races , with so much on the line , and so many still in mathematical contention , have the potential to be absolutely ridden with contoversy .

Fasten your 5 point harnesses kids . We're in for a wild ride !

But , It's nice to have a giggle to break the tension before it starts .

I wonder how many takes it took to get straight faces from everyone .

[SGWilko]

Good god, sense of humour in F1?

Gafaw gafaw.

[Tonieke]

So happy to see some rally technology introduced in F1 ! :-)))

[aryan]

Good to see this coming from McLaren. The team most people accuse of being without any sense of humour.

[ArrowsFA1]

:laugh:

[Viktory]

haha, that was funny :)

[Daniel]

That was a pretty poor attempt at humour :mark:

[CNR]

will they have to stay 200 meters behind at all times

Police in the UK could soon give speeding crooks a bit of a shock by chasing them down in 200mph Formula 1 supercars.

[janneppi]

Good show. :)

[wmcot]

Partisanship? WTF? It's not funny..... it's .... just.... not..... funny.

IMHO of course :)

Is there any reason you didn't accuse me of racism? :confused:

[Marshall]

Hehe certainly didn't expect to see that when I opened the link.

Well done McLaren for providing us with some timely light-heartedness.

[ArrowsFA1]

... It's not funny..... it's .... just.... not..... funny.


It wasn't "rolling-on-the-floor-peeing-in-my-pants" funny, but in light of the recent staid events in F1, particularly surrounding team McLaren, it was quite refreshing.

[jens]

:laugh:

They should use it some day on the circuit too - would be fun to see the real effect!

[BoilerIMS]

didn't they know yet that the track will be brighter than daylight?

One word.... one word... "Sarcasm"

[Robinho]

That was a pretty poor attempt at humour :mark:


do you hate everything?

[truefan72]

Partisanship? WTF? It's not funny..... it's .... just.... not..... funny.

IMHO of course :)

now just being foolish,

trying to ruin the mood in this light hearted thread.

Stop hating with the negativity and the mclaren bias.

They could find a cure for cancer and you would see the downside in that
:hmph:

[Daniel]

or perhaps I just don't find it funny. What you gonna do?

[Tonieke]

or perhaps I just don't find it funny. What you gonna do?

..think everyone knows by now you not find it funny..3th time you mention it in this thread.....no need to repeat it over and over...

[ioan]

..think everyone knows by now you not find it funny..3th time you mention it in this thread.....no need to repeat it over and over...

Why not? What are you going to do about it?

[tintop]

or perhaps I just don't find it funny. What you gonna do?

Laugh at you :p - hands down one of the funniest team spoofs ever.

[Tonieke]

Why not? What are you going to do about it?

nothing !

[ioan]

nothing !

Excellent!

[Daniel]

..think everyone knows by now you not find it funny..3th time you mention it in this thread.....no need to repeat it over and over...
Perhaps I was accused of hating McLaren 3 times :) Anyhoo whadya gonna do? :laugh:

[AJP]

This thread started as a great, light hearted, funny introduction to the Singapore Grand Prix. Two people have done their best to ruin it...
Well Done !

[Knock-on]

:laugh:

Your wish is granted :laugh:


Q. (Tomas Richtr – TV Nova) To the McLaren drivers: could you please quantify the advantage from the headlights that your team at Woking installed on your car last week?

HK: Yeah, I had a chat about that with my engineer but I still prefer the aerodynamic advantage, so I will keep the lights off.

LH: For me, I thought I needed a bit more downforce, so I've opted to use them.

Is Mark Fogarty on day release from a pre-school or is he just a out and out fool?

I'm surprised DC didn't beat a few shades of something out of him for his rather moronic questions :)
