Convenient that Alonso comes before Button in the alphabet, so they've got an excuse to show the name of their 'definitely not number one' driver first...!

I think that makes Vettel the last of all of them.

Would've be cool if Mclaren had gone all in and reverted to the 80's livery.

I'm not convinced we're looking at the final McLaren livery.

Car reveals have been interesting so far. Mercedes still have the best looking nose but something about that McLaren looks fast. It looks delicate like the MP4-27 and the coke bottle area looks really tight. If the engine preforms I think it could be up there.

I think Red Bull have something up their sleeves this year. Not passed crash testing, not being revealed until the last minute. Any other team and I'd be thinking they're in trouble but with them it's likely something tricky.
