Just 3 days to go until I get excited because a car launches and 4 days until I realise it's still 7 weeks until the first race and become incredibly frustrated then.
Pre-Season 2013 Car Launches
- Thread starter Brogan
- Start date
How is that a sneak peek? You don't see any of the car. I want my minute back.
I can clarify for you gethinceri.
That video was made by McLaren. Why did you expect an actual sneak peek?

Because it's called "sneek peek". Perhaps their failure to spell sneak correctly was a veiled indicator that they weren't going to show anything of the new car. I had assumed that it had been made by the creators of their infinitesimally juvenile Tooned team who are likely to be as piss poor at spelling as they are at making a cartoon that even approaches entertainment.
I still want my minute back.

gethinceri - The misspelling certainly doesn't sound like it comes from the Dennis end of the company...
Minute.
I'm not surprised by the steering wheel thing in fact he maybe using his actual McLaren steering wheel, when Coulthard left McLaren and went to Red Bull he was allowed to take his steering wheel with him...
Jos the Boss
Champion Elect
Lewis did get to design the wheel at Mclaren
The steering wheel or the layout?
Just the layout Bill Boddy just like every other driver has a say in such things, the same goes for pedal positioning, how low they sit in the car, what angle the wing mirrors are set at, you know, stuff like that.
If you pause the playing of the video gethinceri at 15 seconds and then operate the slider button manually there are plenty of shots of a car, although it might not be the latest and greatest (assuming that the wording there is correct). Anyway, the car shown there has a modesty panel amongst other features.
They still owe me a minute Bill Boddy, they're not having any more of it.
I don't think the Macca needs a modesty panel as it didn't have a bloody great step in the bodywork or an ironing board for a nose.
I'm with you gethinceri it's like Colonel Gaddafi a bloody piss take.
Kimi Humour. 
Launch address link thingy is at the end of the video.

Launch is live on youtube in T-3 minutes
EDIT: It appears I am inept with a 13-hour clock and the launch is not for two hours...
