McLaren could return to historic orange livery
McLaren’s cars could revert to their historic orange livery in the near future, team boss Martin Whitmarsh has admitted.
Although the Woking based team’s cars have been silver since 1997, orange is actually McLaren’s traditional race colour, dating back to the Can-Am days of the 60s.
The last time the team’s cars sported orange livery was during testing in Barcelona ahead of the 2006 season, after ending their association with West.

16 May 2013
On Thursday morning the McLaren Formula 1 team announced that we will see the return of Honda to Formula 1 as of 2015 with the Woking based team. McLaren and Honda will be reunited once again.
From the start of the 2015 season, McLaren's Formula 1 cars will race using Honda engines and energy recovery systems, renewing an association that became one of the most successful and powerful in Formula 1 history during the 1980s and ’90s.
Honda will develop its engines at its R&D facility in Tochigi, Japan, where it has already begun development of its all-new 1.6-litre turbocharged V6 Formula 1 engine

Costly day for Mercedes after Hamilton prank
May 23 (GMM) Wednesday was a costly day in Monaco for Mercedes.
According to Swiss newspaper Blick's veteran F1 correspondent Roger Benoit, Lewis Hamilton lost his temper with a boatload of photographers whilst jet-skiing in the Monaco harbour.
The report said Hamilton performed an extra-tight turn in front of the photographers, deliberately soaking their photo and TV cameras and mobile phones with a wave of seawater.
"An expensive prank," said Benoit.
"Hamilton's team Mercedes apologised and paid for the $150,000 (!) in damage."
Later, Hamilton spoke to reporters in the Monaco paddock for his usual media duties with his pet Roscoe - a bulldog - snoring loudly on his lap.

Row over three-day Mercedes tyre test
26 May 2013
Tension is growing in the paddock ahead of Sunday's Monaco Grand Prix, with it being revealed that the Mercedes team staged a private three-day tyre test at the Circuit de Catalunya after its disappointing race performance earlier this month.
The Brackley-based outfit, which has claimed four out of a possible six pole positions so far this year, racked up 1000 kilometres, aiding its quest to understand why strong qualifying performances are undone amid intense tyre degradation on race days.
Red Bull and Ferrari have expressed dissatisfaction at the test, questioning whether clarification from governing body the FIA would have been required. Pirelli, however, is understood to have legally requested help from Mercedes to overcome its recent tyre issues, with more durable compounds being introduced for the Canadian Grand Prix.
When quizzed on the matter by GPUpdate.net on Sunday morning, Mercedes, which has locked out the front row for the Monaco Grand Prix, refused to make a comme
