P10. This is a wake-up call for Britain. It's time for many of you to stop acting like schmucks and recognize what you have. McLaren should elicit national pride, not contempt.
P9. In a few hours, several elderly Italian men will take their espresso earlier than usual and convene. Stratagems will be bandied about. But, really, most of them will be thinking "I'm too old for this shit."
P8. If any car will ever have the sheer significance and historical impact of the McLaren F1, it may very well be P1. If not for its outright performance, then for the fact that it will save us from the THREE Bs - Big, Bloated and Bangled. History has shown us that the most esteemed are those that offer us salvation. Look how many people love Jesus Christ.
P7. If journalists have a hard time understanding the 12C, then I fear a lot of grey matter will be sizzled trying to comprehend P1. What do you get when "too capable" and "too perfect" are augmented by five times the downforce?
P6. How exactly does a company so small build new products so quickly? Is this the Formula One development race being brought to the street? If so, somebody should let McLaren's competitors know. 12C, then Spider, now P1 and P13 still to come... even in Stuttgart they must be saying "Ich verstehe nicht".
P5. If you are still wondering whether Frank Stephenson is the right man for the job, then you are probably beyond help, at this point. However, one way to save yourself from further embarrassment is to go and find a different designer to critique.
P4. One morning within the next year, we will all wake up to find a YouTube video of Chris Goodwin, Jenson Button and, if we are lucky enough, perhaps Lewis Hamilton going round a racetrack faster than anybody has ever done before in a street-legal automobile. I'm guessing that will be a pretty cool video.
P3. Right now, a Ferrari dealership in Canada is trying to figure out how they can sue every blogger that writes a positive article about P1.
P2. All McLaren 12C owners will notice that their car has extra pep this weekend. No, it is not the 25 PS upgrade. It is the sensation of looking skyward, like battle-worn infantry men on the field, to see P1 overhead and flying the side's colours. "Hey, it's one of ours!!"
P1. A tall, oafish TV celebrity began conjuring a script today. In his well-worn style, it is peppered with words like "ruthless", "clinical" and perhaps the phrase "assembled by automatons". Sometime shortly after he delivers his sermon, a racing driver in an all-white suit and helmet will set a new lap record in a McLaren, ironically taking the top spot from...... another McLaren.
