Hello. I just realised 😅 At the end, what I meant to say, was that Jenson’s criticism of the car and Sergios bad year was enough proof for us as to why this gamble failed. Not the only reason this car failed. Big brain moment.
All McLaren needed to do for 2013 was improve their trackside operation and the reliability of the otherwise brilliant MP4-27, which could have won the 2012 championship if Hamilton hadn't been so unlucky with reliability, pitstops, strategy, and being crashed out of three races. Instead the team lost their star driver and messed up the MP4-28 bigtime. 2013 was the start of their decline, and they only really started to recover and rebuild in 2019.
Whats also crazy so that they would blame Honda for all of their issues in 2015-17 and only realised they had a chassis design issue with their car in 2018.
@@NHR_Music yeah absolutely. It was clear that Honda was significantly to blame in 2015. But then Honda improved quite a bit in 2016. Whilst I suspect that McLaren got the 2017 aero regs badly wrong and that's why that year was so bad. McLaren only realised that in mid-2018
Oh, absolutely. The MP4-27 was without doubt the fastest car on the grid in 2012. It just wasn't reliable enough, wasn't as light on tyre wear as some of its competitors, and it was operated by a team which started to make some real strategic errors in that year.
@@rjfaber1991 the MP4-27 was about as fast as the Red Bull RB8. It wasn't without a doubt the fastest car, though McLaren had had the best driver lineup on the grid. What is certain is that it would've been a great title fight between Hamilton and Vettel had both cars been reliable -- with Alonso a strong third, but well out of contention.
@@rjfaber1991 The mclaren car was very bad on some tracks instead of the red bull. The McLaren was fast but not enough consistent to be able to get the driver championship. You guys are amplifying things and getting biased.
The only car Perez genuinely sucked in/couldn't race with. Mind you, he has scored podiums with a Sauber, won with a Force India/Racing Point and a Red Bull, but not in a McLaren out of all cars.
@@mike04574 Button is the only driver to outscore both Hamilton and Alonso in the same car across a season. And that's only happened twice to both Lewis and Fernando
@@elliotcrossan6290 I mean, yeah, but he lost both of those battles overall if I'm not mistaken. I think it's better to look at his whole career since he has shown to be extremely adaptable, getting good drives out of multiple eras of car and showing his veracity.
"it's embarrassing, i can't even keep up with the fricking Renault in front of me. My tyres have gone off, i'm heaver than a fricking boat. Guys you need to build us a new car, we need a new car to be able to win these races"
You know 2013 was bad when Ron Dennis said with hindsight a few years later that they should've reverted to their 2012 car at the start of the 2013 season.
Ohhh man, As a mexican I clearly remember the disappointment of watching Checo getting beaten race after race in what was supposed to be an amazing car. It also was my first full season as an f1 fan.... Keep up the amazing content, I love your work
I think the problems with McLaren were starting to show even with the 2012 car. That car had pace to win the championship if not for the amount of retirements it had especially from race leading positions. Hamilton had 6 retirements that season. That's double what everyone ahead of him in the championship had added together
McLaren had a tendency to mess up big time when they had a great car. Not just in 2012, but 2005 and 2007 as well. Even in 1999 they tried very hard to lose both championships. It wasn't just retirements in 2012. They had some insanely poor pit stops and that fuel blunder in Spain as well. The championship should have been between Vettel and Hamilton, not between Vettel and Alonso (who had a terrific season). Vettel would probably have won anyway, as Hamilton was insanely unlucky as well.
In retrospect, McLaren needed to only evolve the concept from 2012, that had been the fastest car for the majority of the season, but the team had had finger trouble, like pit stop blunders and poorly timed reliability issues. With 2013, they seemed to inexplicably threw caution to the wind and came up worse for it. They went from winning the Finale of 2012, with Jenson Button, to having their first season without a podium since 1980. They would have a false dawn of a podium in Australia 2014, but really, they wouldn't be podium contenders until 2020
I remember mclaren as a great when mika and kimi developed the car, and they had newey onboard. After that, lets say the fernando-lewis incident, they showed their true colours. These colours were show uptill the honda partnership. It wasn't just that it was the worst engine, they had also the draggiest car. It was evident after they swapped to Renault. It was not the livery that made it awesome, brawn was the catalyst.
Thank you very much for taking the time to read through the other videos' comments, and through the poll comments. A lot of people are passionate about the colors of McLaren, and you do a very good service of bringing information about them to us. Stay safe, stay happy! I admit to being a part of the Gulf cult, but I do fancy the orange in any aspect it's used, but FLURO ORANGE was the best ever.
As a McLaren fan, 2013-2017 (and somewhat 2018) was just painful to watch. Jenson (my fav driver) and Alonso (my fav "bad guy" of the grid) were absolutely robbed
MP4-18, the F1 car that never raced, and MP4-28, the car that was bad. There's only a few years left till MP4-38 now, hmmm... Edit: MCL-38, didn't notice the name's changed, my bad.
As a McLaren fan, 2013 was massively disappointing considering that the team had been in contention for wins and championships over the past 8 years. To then suddenly have no podiums at all was a huge shock to my system as I felt McLaren would never fall that far back ever. Great video as always Perspective 👌🏁
In a way it’s like Ferrari in 2019 who almost had the fastest car like McLaren but fell into the midfield a year later when the regulations staying the sm
Checo getting sacked was the best thing to happen, who knows where he’d be if had stayed, realistically probably an Indycar Champion which honestly would be cool, Indycar is a massively underrated motorsport but even better he’s now in a capable winning Red Bull. Good things come to those who wait. 🙏🏽
This for me is where all of the mistakes and mishaps McLaren made from about when newey left(end of 05) to 2012 culminated from the controversies and behind the scenes mess to losing Lewis and their status as mercedes main focus
Fun fact - Mclaren didnt win a race in the year before Lewis joined, 2006. ... and the same in the year after he left. .... but they won every year he was with them.... Lewis is the bringer of luck.
I read somewhere the main problem with the '13 car was underfloor airflow stalling because of the brand new concept. Apparently, it was multiple design projects trying get the car together and it was a complete trainwreck. Didn't help that they went to pull-rod front suspension and raising the chassis height so on bumpy circuits, it was at its absolute worst.
Kmag performed better for McLaren that Sergio did granted it was a slightly better car but considering Kmag was a rookie in 2014 he did a pretty decent job
The Vodafone livery especially from the mclaren from 2008 is what got me into F1 and I was feeling some nostalgia when Mclaren announced their livery during 2020 and earlier this because of how its similar to the vodafone livery
Flaws aside...the car looks so dope, side profile looks like some advance fighter jet. Hope mclaren again uses the same colour in 2022...i absolutely love that red-silver combo with voda sponsor.
Ferrari 2020 was a shocker,but id say the conspiracy about the paycheck is real,for both teams,Hamilton moved to a planned championship winner,ah how i miss Og Ron Dennis
To dash or not to dash? I always read the names as MP4 28 but I've noticed lots of people, like yourself Sam, saying MP4 dash 28. Is that the official way?
Such a shame that Perez got written off by a lot of people. It took so many consistently excellent performances in underfunded midfield cars to rebuild his reputation
There is an interesting post on the 2013 McLaren somewhere on the internet (McLaren 2013 - Where did the pace go?). Another post claims they couldn't develop the 2012 car any further, so they had to develop a completely new car. "2013 was a failure in the making for several years already" as someone pointed out. By the way, I think it was pretty amusing the car was fast in testing when a part of the suspension was fitted incorrectly.
The Chrome/West livery was better than the Vodafone grey and red livery by far !!! The 1997 to 2005 cars were magnificent ! The 2005 MP4/20 is, still to this day, the most beautiful F1 car of all times in my opinion. After that, they introduces some red and I think it wasn't that good looking.
I agree, that design from 97' to '01 during Hakkinen's time at McMerc (I call it that because they had a 40% stake at the time) was absolutely gorgeous. It's still my favourite livery on an F1 car to this day.
I still have the Monaco Gulf livery as my phones background photo. It’s just beautiful but I think if it were used every race, it’d be bad for the livery itself
@@eric11Apart from Ferrari style strategy calls, botched pitstops, Mechanical failures for Hamilton when he should have won at Singapore & Abu Dhabi when he had both of those races in the bag.
The MP4-27 was not at the end of its development cycle no matter what McLaren said in the wake of the -28's poor performance in early 2013 season. Throughout 2012 season, the -27 was the car to beat. It was fast in qualifying, and had race winning pace with minimal issues with the 2012 Pirelli tyres. It was also the car that had the best interpretation of the Coanda exhaust system before Red Bull unveiled their definitive version of the system from Singapore onward. McLaren's failure was due to poor strategy, pit-stop blunders, poor reliability caused by misplaced priorities on development, and wasting half the season focusing on getting Button's poor performance up to par with Hamilton. While an 'MP4-27D' might not have won 2013 against the Red Bull RB9, it would have been competitive against the Mercedes W04 and Ferrari F138, and certainly outperform the Lotus E21. Button initially described the -28 as the "best car he's ever driven and the most sophisticated F1 car McLaren ever made". Fair enough, the car displayed impressive speed during day 1 of pre-season testing. But then that turned out to be an anomaly caused by an incorrectly fitted suspension component (really?). Perez described the -28 being notoriously inconsistent. The driver, mechanics, engineers, and race strategists would always alter the set-up of the car every time it left the garage. Sometimes the car would excel in qualifying but would be hopelessly uncompetitive in the race. And other times the car would be competitive in a race but unable to gain position due to poor qualifying pace.
Ah yes, the 2013 McLaren the car that made Lewis's move to Mercedes not seem as illogical as it had seemed at the time, and the one when Checo's brakes decided to pull an uncommanded 2021 Baku GP Lewis Race restart just as Checo exited the tunnel in Monaco
And this is the car that more or less allows Martin Whitmarsh to get sacked, Paddy Lowe to leave for Mercedes and Vodafone stopping their partnership with McLaren
McLaren downfall began when hamilton left the best driver they ever had. they did not have him to develop the car. just like when mansell left williams because the were to cheap to pay him
I never understood why they didn't just use the 2012 car. They were too proud to admit the concept was flawed and decided to keep the race winning car from the previous year in storage and continue with the 2013 flawed concept.
1:01 - Yes, it was a reminder that anything can happen in F1 except a driver earning a seat purely on driving ability only and not how many 0's daddy has in the bank 😶😅😂
I love Malaysia and sepang, but I won’t let anyone come by and claim sepang is more bumpy than Albert park (McLaren), speangs bumpy af, especially sector 2
If they’d have listened to Whitmarsh and kept the 27 chassis who knows what could’ve happened, while Dennis was a time bomb 2013-2018 mclaren may not have ended as badly as it did, arrogance and stubbornness really wrecked the team.

They thought they couldn't develop the car further, that's how I understand it.
If they’d have listened to Whitmarsh and kept the 27 chassis who knows what could’ve happened, while Dennis was a time bomb 2013-2018 mclaren may not have ended as badly as it did, arrogance and stubbornness really wrecked the team.
Didn't Whitmarsh want to re-unite McLaren and Honda in 2013?
Then 2015 came...
mate, no hate, but PLEASE, just speak a lil faster, I gotta watch at like 1.75 speed
Vodafone and Chrome was the best.
Who was the technical director in 2013 I hope he got sacked
I mean it was a looker but.
i rate the car a stinky pooper/10
The tytle and the video have two diferent meanings.
Mclaren, why must you make me hate towards you, huh?
Soz
i think u forgot the 2009 mclaren
That car won 2 races
That car was pretty quick after it got the double diffuser.
@@MadeByPerspective the updated car won 2 races it was called the worst F1 car at the start of the year by martin brundle
@@Adithya13303 I believe the front wing was a problem as well. Once they fixed it, the car was quick indeed.
Beautiful but shit, just like the Ferrari from 1993
