Oh my what a superb evening. I really didn't had any clue how this day would end. I just can not tell the feelings to see #01R be driven again. Very touching moment, just can't help it. Even I haven't seen the car ever my self on live. That would be one of the bigest dreams to see this car with my own eyes.! HOpelly someday.....!

Very proud to be F1 GTR Fan to know you all here in Forum.
Very proud day to be a FINN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Two historic racecars there, Le Mans winner mostly done by JJ Lehto's out standing drive in La Sharte's night and Mika Hakkinen's 1998 World Championship winner.

I'm totally out of the words now. Very touched. Thank you McLaren.
Thank You Erik those screenshots, absolutely stunning work again and that video clip added by WaZzZuPpP; thank you very very much indeed.!

I think I need a drink, good old Famous Grouse would to the job today. I think I will enjoy it and watch that 3.00 part of the clip...again.!

Great to see 01r driven round the lake. Could this year top last year for us all on the forum ? Surely there must be a big gathering of Mclaren F1 / GTR for us to see!
The P1 looked better than i thought in the flesh also

One of McLaren's development drivers - I didn't notice who climbed out as they were wearing a helmet.

Finland's press didn't notised this historic day at all, so far anything really hasn't told about this. Just McLaren new F1 car 2013 season and that's it.

I hope, I really hope Finnish Motorsport Magazine- Vauhdin Maailma (which I added scans 1997 FIA GT1 season) would mention about this day something. It's not usual that McLaren which has so incredible racecar collection, choses 2/6 cars which has Finnish drivers name on the door. So IF Finnish press doesn't get it, then it's very very sad.

Watched again that 3.00-> part of the video. Funny how it still effects me very emotionally way. There is something so magical these cars. I just can't explain it. Of course, Ferrari, Lamborghini (Lamborhighini I love really much), are both different way very exeptional sports/race car manufacturers, but McLaren showed yesturday the whole world what it really is about. Something very exeptional, totally different world than anything else.

What a January. Oh My. :smokin:
Henry, If you read this Thread; Thanks if you hade more or less fingers on it what we saw yesturday. Thanks.! :smokin:

Just a quick one on a related item - the latest issue of GP International magazine looks back on the 50 year history of McLaren and is surely one to look for on the newsstand as the content in the magazine is generally top notch!

After last nights increbile shock to see #01R back on the business again, my plan was clear. This what McLaren did, must be respected someway, but how! In the morning plan was clear. Waited the midle day arrivaled and then startet the work. Used a poor day light, but it was better than any lamp

I think this is the least what I can do after thursday's emotionally "shock".
This car deserves it.:smokin:
Just really hoping to get this collection some point Presentation livery and Pre-Qualifying livery. Maybe someday.
