McLaren will unveil its 2019 challenger with a little help from Cupid apparently, although the Woking-based outfit's car will likely be draped in papaya once again.

McLaren will launch its Renault-powered MCL34 on Valentine's Day on February 14, according to the team's post on social media.

McLaren's new design will hopefully help Formula 1's second most successful team move up the grid compared to its disappointing 2018 campaign.

For this, the outfit will also rely on drivers Carlos Sainz and rookie Lando Norris.
