Looks like they've tried to properly cover it up and won't be releasing the cause of the accident, people on TF day told the damage was 'Roadworks'!

Tyre failure, apparently

Still, I recently learned they are opening a McLaren dealer down the road from me (the town's worst kept secret). Might have to get a test drive though.

Could be true though. Many rumours of sub 7 mins lap potential. That will seriously move the game on if right and they could well be pushing the tyres over the limit.

All this from their base, entry level car! Amazing really.Just wait for the next models to arrive!
