There are some new shots of the F1 on the Serious Wheels website. They are under the heading Automotive Photography by Richard Thompson. There are additional shots of other cars there. Enjoy

They are old shots, but offered at a much higher resolution than ever before which was certainly kind of him to do. Also, I count 4 with the F1.

The rolling shot of the black Carrera GT and the shot of the yellow F430 Scud were two of my favorites from that portfolio. He does very talented work with the camera and usually has outstanding subject matter to work with too.

Off topic:
hurstg01 I LOVE the new sig photo! I am still hoping that one day Top Gear does a throw back episode and runs the F40, XJ220, Countach, and of course the Mclaren to get a proper lap time! Hey i can dream can't I?

I've been hoping for the exact same thing! And hope it to a year or two or three off, when I'll hopefully be tripping around Europe, and getting me some Top Gear tickets!

Yep those cars on the show would be nice!

By the way, McLaren F1 has never been tested at Top Gear "Stig" laptime?!
Me and my friend just other day discussed this, how quick McLaren F1 could be Top Gear's "Stig" lap.

Probably not that fast, because - as I have gathered form reading and watching - the standard McLarens had quite a lot of bodyroll, and didn't handle amazingly in general either.
Would be a great show to watch tho!

Yep so I have heard about the handling. Still it would be very interesting to find out, how fast it is compared today's supercars, will it still beat some of them.....

Apparently, at least one F1 has been round the TG lap, but the time isn't in the public domain

Ok, very strange. Well this means that the McLaren F1 was so quick that they run out of clock.
