Quite an interesting array of photos.I like the McLaren lighting setup- perhaps they are again one step ahead of the pack again!!

With the “daylight” lights, I hope they take some satellite pictures of the GP taking place. This should be an interesting pic

The McLaren pic… priceless!
Reminds me of the “Keep your distance” Williams painted on their rear wings a while ago.

If the live TV images are as dark as some of the still photos I’ve seen here and at autosport.com, we may all be in for a disappointment.
Here’s hoping I’m wrong.

I saw few FP videos, and the cars look absolutely stunning under the lights. Especially, BMW and Ferrari; simply WOW…
