McLaren-Honda has been teasing “exciting changes” about its latest challenger - the MCL32 - for several weeks, ranging from a throwback orange livery to Honda’s ‘high risk’ power unit design.

In the world of alternative facts we now live in, McLaren moved quickly to set the record straight and remind its 2017-spec charger will be unveiled in one week's time, on February 24.
