It seems amazing to me that McLaren have not won an F1 race since Brazil 2012.
They should get a boost with their new engine supplier Renault, but will that be enough to secure a first win in over 5 years? what do you think F1 fans?

Nope :-D
I think it would be realistic for them to win a race this season but if they do it will be by sheer luck. My prediction for McLaren in the constructors is fourth place though, right behind RB.
As much as would like to see them up front, i cannt see it happening. May be surprised, but cannt see it.
We'll see if they are able to produce a good chassis though by comparing them to RB.Quote:

Οn shear speed,NO WAY !!!!
They will be competitive and might have a couple of podiums and this under curtain circumstances.
No, I don't think Renault is quite there yet.
So even if McLaren can come up with a strong chassis, like Red Bull they will be held back by the PU.
From our point of view, I hope not! But I'd never write them off, both teams have a winning history and they have a reasonable chance if the current top teams fail or make mistakes.:Hmm
Why do we got a poll like this to be honest LOL! I really don’t care only want Ferrari see winning lot of races! Forza Ferrari :ferrarifl:ferrarifl:ferrarifl

We all bleed red.
Exactly, there's nothing wrong about discussing the environment around Ferrari and its rivals.Quote:

Alonso at 36 yrs. old is still one of, if not the top driver on the track. A good example where age is not the big deal, Ericsson is 27 yrs.old, and 48 {2015!], races since he scored a point! Meanwhile Leclerc alongside Ericsson with a new Ferrari PU should really have a good 1st. F1 season.Quote:

Well, I can hope it happens like that!
