You’re probably right. And showing their new livery on the same day as Mercedes was certainly not going to help, because, no matter how good the McLaren car might be, most eyes will be on Mercedes. After all, they have the 7x WC driving for them. Anyway, I can’t wait for this year’s season to start. It would be great if we can have four teams to battle for wins. Probably not going to happen, but you never know. 😊
The livery inspired of the triple crown at the back, the chrome numbers from silverstone livery, the singapur stealth mode and the cancelation of blue looks stunning.
Cancelation of blue is awful. It's a beautiful blue and as an accent, it looked awesome. Blue and orange are complimentary. Orange and black with blue is still a - as far as color ways go - a legit combination
I want a team to run a wind tunnel livery. The all orange with black lines and black wheels looked actually really cool. Would be fun for the test session
Didn't Zak Brown say that they wanted to do more special liveries? So maybe this is sort of a 'base' livery and they'll launch a special "start of season livery" at the launch, kind of like the BWT thing.
Yes, this livery is way better than the last one. I personally still prefer glossy colours but still this bangs. But that OKX logo is so weird and that makes the whole livery look so bad. Something slick or even something in a regular font would look way better.
I think kind of references all three special liveries from last season, with the chrome numbers with the chrome livery, the striped style for the triple crown livery, and the colours of black and orange referencing to the stealth livery for Singapore.
It looks good, I really enjoy the rear orange. The thing is that there will be many more cars with black liveries and all look the same. I miss full color, but yeah as long as it is closer racing it is good
Would have loved something similar to the silver one from last year, but this is nice too. But am I the only one who didn't hate the blue bits? I thought they were fine, but this is also nice without that.
Would be cool to see teams experiment with tinted carbon fibre, so many opportunities for cool liveries by tinting the carbon. I understand that it would add so much more lead time to parts than just wrapping it, but one can live in hope.
The orange primer and chrome wings looked pretty cool in the video. Personally, this livery feels the same as the last one. It’s better in the same way that it’s better to have enough butter to spread across your whole piece of toast than just half.
There should be a big event in Monaco where the champion gets his award, the teams present their new cars and they will compete in a showcase 3 lap fastest lap session
If I would have the paint brush and change that liver to make it a 10 I would just put the 2020 livery on. Something about the rainbow on the side pod was just perfect which you can argue whatever you want about the politicalness of that. But I just think the color combo of the orange and the blue and then throw in that rainbow is spot on
I liked the light blue on the older liveries, but as Tommy mentioned, it was mostly because of Gulf. So it was a bit awkward later down last season when Williams showed up in blue and orange because of a... Gulf sponsorship. It felt a bit like the spiderman meme
I think the only 2 interesting ones will be Stake and what was Alpha Tauri as these will be actual new brands. I would love it to be more exciting, but my expectations for livery launches are low. Everyone else will go safe with minor tweaks to what they have been running for 2+ years.
It was Max who said something with "whatever it takes" in an interview last year, when he was asked about Alonso and Aston Martin progress in 2023? I think he said that some teams want to do whatever it takes to succeed, or something like that.
I never liked the reverse Gulf style livery anyway. To me it was either embrace the primary baby blue over a secondary orange or go 'full' orange and quit messing around.
McLaren surprisingly dropping their “Whatever It Takes” slogan and livery release a week before AT/Visa Baby RB releasing an hour and a half long “documentary” titled ‘Whatever it Takes’ is just great marketing 😂
I can't lie, I love this new McLaren. Not just the car, but the attitide too. They're not just happy with podiums. They want more, they feel they NEED more. And the way they're talking, you'd be damn silly to deny them. I love hearing McLaren get this "fuck-you" attitude. It's what made them great to watch in their winning era's. They almost play into that role of people not expecting them to be able to beat Ferrari (despite their being historic rivalry and conflict there). It's just nice to see McLaren aren't gonna settle. They're actively pushing. A double points finish was a solid way to start the season. And before you write them off: In 2022 and 2023 they were the slowest cars on the gird (by a mile) in Bahrain. In 2022, in Jeddah onwards they were solid midfield team. (Literally just 1 week with 0 upgrades applied, yet they gained ALL that pace) In 2023, they did the same again (although didnt capatlise on it early on). I genuinely think McLaren could be fighting for P2 next weekend onwards. The last 2 years McLaren have been OBSURDLY slower ar Bahrain than anywhere else. I still reckon their 2nd fastest.
I think mclaren launched the livery so early to let it sink in and then in 14 feb they announce a special livery partner with monster for the first few races
The chrome numbers on the Papaya™ section are so hard to see in the renders. Between the stylized font and illegible color contrast-they aren't doing a great job of identifying which McLaren you're looking at-especially with both drivers having a lot of yellow on their helmets. Glad they dropped the blue, though. 8/10.
I have watched hundreds of videos with these two on this channel and the one before. When this video popped up I was sure I was watching Matt and Max Fosh posing as Tommy 😂
I remember in 2020 someone made a fan livery for McLaren which looked very similar to the 24 livery. I also remember people were digging that livery hard so I don't understand the hate now
Firstly, where is the lime green Monster Energy logo! lol But seriously, I say that McLaren decided to launch so quickly to keep eyes/interest off of them for as long as possible. You know... let the hype of the new livery die down in a day or two and then all quiet on the western front for a whole month. That sort of thing could be a huge advantage for a team while putting the final golden touches on their 2024 contender. Go McLaren! cheers, fellas!
"orange and black work so well together" They do?? Idk, to each their own but i hate that color combo. Now, orange and white on the other hand, that can be just lovely together
![ARGENTINA vs. PERÚ [1-0] | RESUMEN | ELIMINATORIAS SUDAMERICANAS | FECHA 12](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/xtI25ENDDSY/mqdefault.jpg)
Teams carefully thinking of how to be the 1st team to launch the car to generate as much hype and online chatter as possible
Mclaren:
McLaren: SURPRISE MOTHAF*CKA
McLaren: Hold my kiwi

It looks like a Duracell battery
@@mariodriessen9740 u talk to much
I don't know about an "emergency podcast", but any day we get a Matt and Tommy podcast is a happy happy fun day.
Lads...what if Guenther being let go was collateral damage form the Mazaspin sue? 😮
Matt looking super healthy right now, after a month off fresh Ferrari pain.
Just what the doctor ordered!
He will be back on the sauce in just a few weeks.

@@Real28Yeah I miss the blue too. Last year’s livery was much better imo
@@Real28 the only blue which was good and complimentaey was in 2019. Hope for such livery again. To much unpainted carbon
The chrome numbers
The fact its a classic Malboro livery just black and orange rather than red and white.
I'm in love.
I want a team to run a wind tunnel livery. The all orange with black lines and black wheels looked actually really cool. Would be fun for the test session
McLaren have run all orange cars in pre-season testing several times over the years.

welp it seem like another season of "majorly black liveries" is arround the corner
Matt inspires me.. My parents said if i get 70K followers They'd buy me a professional camera for recording..begging u guys , literally
Begging..
That’s just radical weight saving. Every single gram counts. And guess what, carbon fibre is black
I mean im not too fussed by black cars. It looks pretty nice.
oh i know that,but if anything that just proves my point further@@LucasBeaufort
@@namantherockstarstop
Matt looks absolutely glowing with the new lighting
He's radio active! 🤣
@@mikehippersonor pregnant…
*drunk/hungover
Just recovered from his Ferarri pains
14 Feb is also Ash Wednesday this year, so any "bad" launches can be classed into puns of ashes and disaster too.
Remember the days you'd only find out who drives for a team during these launch events?
I miss those
Tbh insiders sorta killed any possibility of that.
imo releasing the livery now means:
we are ready
we can't wait to begin this season
let's f-ing goooo
They also haven't added Monster energy green yet as well. That may come at the launch on Feb 14th.
It's gonna look like the 2014-2016 Force India cars
Monster colours will not be on the car, it's just on water bottles
@@Sahil.Thomas on team kits in general
Only 6 weeks until the 2024 season gets underway. LETS GOOOOOO

loving matt's new set design, definitely needed that pop of colour!
It looks good, I really enjoy the rear orange. The thing is that there will be many more cars with black liveries and all look the same. I miss full color, but yeah as long as it is closer racing it is good
I just feels less creative when all teams are incentivized to to use one color
Bring back the Monaco gulf livery full time. My god that was a beauty
Gulf isn't a sponsor anymore though.
Would have loved something similar to the silver one from last year, but this is nice too.
But am I the only one who didn't hate the blue bits? I thought they were fine, but this is also nice without that.
Would be cool to see teams experiment with tinted carbon fibre, so many opportunities for cool liveries by tinting the carbon. I understand that it would add so much more lead time to parts than just wrapping it, but one can live in hope.
Great to have the best F1 RUclipsrs back
Man, you guys are so easily pleased! I can barely tell the difference from last year.
Damn Tommy even already supported Verstappen in the Orange Arrows 😃👍
They should have done like a spray paint kind of fade between the orange and black would look soooooo good
Would be cool to see the orange suspension members. But probably too heavy.
Their livery is basically just their 2017 livery but done right
i saw the livery when f1 posted it on insta and the comments are wild you can definitely see the newer fans brought by dts
DTS for Formula one is what social Media IS for the Internet
I feel like the only thing that could top this would be if redbull went white or glossy/chrome and ditch the matte

It's sad that human rights are a "political" topic 😔
I liked the light blue on the older liveries, but as Tommy mentioned, it was mostly because of Gulf. So it was a bit awkward later down last season when Williams showed up in blue and orange because of a... Gulf sponsorship. It felt a bit like the spiderman meme
Matt, there are actually many Chrome emblems on the bodywork too, it's just hidden within the black carbon fibre using Incognito mode
It's the Marlboro Livery but in black and orange.
I’m ready for Aston to drop the same livery for they have had since 2021
Matt & Tommy's prayers to the patron saint of content generation have been answered
Reminds me of the Arrows livery back in the days. It's okay for me. Not amazing, not terrible.
It looks like an orange 2023 Alfa Romeo, and now i cant unsee it
Orange & black is this mclarens modern take on Orange Arrows?
This has kept me conscious in the dark depths of off season...
People will complain about the lack of paint but jokes on them exposed carbon turns me on
I think the only 2 interesting ones will be Stake and what was Alpha Tauri as these will be actual new brands. I would love it to be more exciting, but my expectations for livery launches are low. Everyone else will go safe with minor tweaks to what they have been running for 2+ years.
Okay, that "Bye Guenther" at the end.... I wasn't ready for that :(
I'm sure that Matt read that 16.01 picture like "Yeah, McLaren also rooting for Charles P1 in the championship" :D
The shade of orange is also more papaya! 🧡
Next time when editing have a side by side comparison between the new and old livery
Love to see the orange cape hanging proud Tommy
It was Max who said something with "whatever it takes" in an interview last year, when he was asked about Alonso and Aston Martin progress in 2023? I think he said that some teams want to do whatever it takes to succeed, or something like that.
They were willing to drop the blue for the acceleration gain. Whatever it takes to win am i right?
I never liked the reverse Gulf style livery anyway. To me it was either embrace the primary baby blue over a secondary orange or go 'full' orange and quit messing around.
“Just kidding it’s pink!” 😂
I love Tommy’s humor
@4:39 you surely mean a brief view back to the past
Like George Russel ounce said, it looks fast.
McLaren surprisingly dropping their “Whatever It Takes” slogan and livery release a week before AT/Visa Baby RB releasing an hour and a half long “documentary” titled ‘Whatever it Takes’ is just great marketing 😂
Okay, I never realised that the wheels are the colors of Google Chrome untill Tommy said it. Mindblowing lol
Do you think they should release their updated livery based on championship order from the previous year?
I can't lie, I love this new McLaren.
Not just the car, but the attitide too.
They're not just happy with podiums. They want more, they feel they NEED more. And the way they're talking, you'd be damn silly to deny them. I love hearing McLaren get this "fuck-you" attitude. It's what made them great to watch in their winning era's.

Ferrari is not, oh the car is red. What about ‘23? It was dope! They brought the Tifosi & THE REVEAL WAS THE CAR BEING DRIVEN ON THE *TRACK* ‼️
When tommy said it looks like a nod to the marlboro, i can no longer unsee it
The 2019 orange and blue really was the peak
Loving the pre-season livery talk, can't wait for another season with you lads. Here's to 2024!
The chrome numbers on the Papaya™ section are so hard to see in the renders. Between the stylized font and illegible color contrast-they aren't doing a great job of identifying which McLaren you're looking at-especially with both drivers having a lot of yellow on their helmets.

Looks like a friggin jack-o'-lantern 🎃 gonna call it the spooky car
I have watched hundreds of videos with these two on this channel and the one before. When this video popped up I was sure I was watching Matt and Max Fosh posing as Tommy 😂
Imagine a McLaren livery with BWT as a sponsor😂
5:45 Matt: "Nah, they (Mercedes) are Cheffing." ... this aged well🤣
What a great adverting pitch.. so early it gets the most attention
It will change 12 times throughout the season, so don’t get too worked up. 😂
Look closely at the black/orange pattern. There is a resemblance to the red/white Marlboro McLaren pattern, isn't there?
Thanks guys, excellent video. 👍🏽🇯🇲
I remember in 2020 someone made a fan livery for McLaren which looked very similar to the 24 livery. I also remember people were digging that livery hard so I don't understand the hate now
i feel like they are actually teasing us. Suprised that Monster is not on the car at all, will they add neon green at their actual car launch?
Really looking forward to this season!!!
New lighting looks great
Mclaren are doing a shake down at Silverstone on the 14th not a launch
“They found something” …hopium lol
I want more dark blue. Loved the 2020 car
For me a 9 , makes it a 10 if the wheel covers were plain carbon with a disc of orange mclaren logos but im sure google pays decent for that exposure
With the dark background it looks like a huge Duracell battery
Firstly, where is the lime green Monster Energy logo! lol But seriously, I say that McLaren decided to launch so quickly to keep eyes/interest off of them for as long as possible.

That sort of thing could be a huge advantage for a team while putting the final golden touches on their 2024 contender. Go McLaren! cheers, fellas!
This is them being super-pumped for 2024 - hopefully thy match the development trend from the end of the year.
"orange and black work so well together"
They do?? Idk, to each their own but i hate that color combo.
Now, orange and white on the other hand, that can be just lovely together
Done developing in January, gonna be a fun fight for P12.
Looks like they removed some more paint, maybe they're still struggling with weight limits
Chrome covers are dope! You're wrong Tommy! lol
Tommy, can you show us the poster behind you on the wall please?
Matt grasping at straws.. "They've found something!" 😂
The Chrome (colourful) wheel rims are the best!!!
I wish it was a redder orange though. Because it’s giving more Arrows than true mclaren for me. But hey it‘a 100% an improvement on previous years!
They gonna be on top. Not this year but soon I think.
I thought that was Ernie Wise for a minute there.... No it's Matt with his syrup slightly skewed
I've missed technical Tommy at 8m50
matt saying stake without missing a beat hit me like a brick
we could just collectively agree to only call them sauber i think that would be funny
1998 McLaren MP4-13... Best Looking McLaren ever.
Yay, another video🎉
Should have had the OKX livery like last season Singapore x Japan
The blue right behind the front wheels makes me not like it as much even though it’s hard to see
Monster sponsor McLaren now so I’m hoping for a black and green alternate
And from now until March, every single F1 fan will be obsessively discussing paint in an effort to not get too bored...
