Re: Pebble Beach 2015

There are four F1s known to be in Monterey for Car Week this year.

036 is already there with its owner. 014 is on its way up from Santa Barbara now. 073 will be in the RM Auction and then 17R as you mention will be in the McLaren tent.





Images of all of them have been floating around online. Maybe Greg will be so kind as to share a few more.

Re: Pebble Beach 2015

Any particular reason the F1 is the only one connected to a power supply?

Re: Pebble Beach 2015

I'd guess the other cords were hidden a little better.

Re: Pebble Beach 2015

Is that a trick of the lighting and it's Silver or is it actually Pale Blue?

Re: Pebble Beach 2015

Happy to report that I got to spend some time with each of the four cars. What a week besides that!

Pictures in an instant - or hopefully soon anyways...
