Pretty crazy what lengths militaries will go to win a war!

"Project Habakkuk or Habbakuk was a plan by the British during the Second World War to construct an aircraft carrier out of pykrete (a mixture of wood pulp and ice) for use against German U-boats in the mid-Atlantic, which were beyond the flight range of land-based planes at that time."

How amazing this place would be to see! Pretty cool that they remanufacture parts for the heritage cars to keep them in top shape.

McLaren forging closer ties with Toyota as F1 rumours swirl by echelon7 in c/[email protected]

When Toyota was in F1 they had the largest budget of all the teams. Too bad they can't bring that kind of fire power to the grid with the cost cap!

At a minimum we deserve a two-way battle! 2021 was so intense.

Irony is they tried with Honda to rebuild their glory days together and it failed miserably. I hope Honda has the same level of success with AM that they are seeing with RB.

It would be pretty amazing to see Toyota back on the grid along with the addition of Audi and Ford! We'd have a proper engine constructor battle going.

McLaren's impressive turn around after the summer break looks like they could be on the path to fight Red Bull next year. Could this be the end of years of pain being a McLaren fan? 🤞
