Peloton, F1 question I'm sure you can answer. How much is the gold heat sheild worth off a Mclaren F1?

Been told that all the foil - keep in mind there is a lot more than you can see in your photo - adds up to 25 grams of gold. That is slightly less than one ounce, so take the market price plus the cost of manufacturing it into an adhesive backed foil. Less than $5,000 probably.

Unless the 25 grams is not accurate - then my answer could be way off.

So apparently McLaren are planning to release shots of the new hypercar next month. It makes sense. They revealed the MP4-12C's design 2 years prior to production.

Can't wait.

I asked about seeing it at Goodwood next year and was told that would be too soon. I think the photos that are coming out are spyshots of the mules for 'P12' which will be the successor to the F1 - not actual concept photos.
