Expect a different look for McLaren when they unveil the new MP4-30 on January 29th, 2015. Gone will be the familiar liquid silver color due to its possible association with the “Silver Arrows” of Mercedes and in its place will be a brand new livery. Two key questions remain ahead of the reveal, which will take place online. First, did McLaren land a title sponsor? The Woking-based squad ran 2014 without one and said that they don’t necessarily need one for 2015, either, buoyed by the strong growth from McLaren Automotive. Second, will the renewed partnership result in a heritage livery? With white being a traditional racing color of Japanese teams and orange being the traditional color of McLaren a throwback livery is certainly possible provided it fits with the colors of a potential [paying] title sponsor. We’ll find out in 19 days. In the meantime, let us know what you think.
