| 0:00.0 | The race is on, and McLaren has won the race to be the first to launch its 2020 Formula One car, |
| 0:12.5 | with the MCL 35M being revealed online on Monday. But just how new is it really, given the change of engine supplier, |
| 0:19.4 | and what should we expect from a team that's made huge strides in recent years? I'm at Straw and joining me to take a look at McLaren's |
