“More Excited to Watch Now OMFG”: KSI’s Partner in Crime’s Unexpected Collaboration With McLaren Sends F1 World Into a Meltdown
Follow Us
The 2023 car launch season is well underway. And let’s say, it’s been very interesting up to this point. We began with Haas unveiling the livery on the VF23, then we got treated to the same livery Red Bull has served us since 2016. That being said, the Bulls did compensate by disclosing the blockbuster return of Ford to F1 during their launch. Williams didn’t make a meal out of their livery reveal but did a solid job with the color scheme for 2023. And finally, Alfa Romeo presented us with arguably the most beautiful looking 2023 F1 car yet! Now, McLaren are next in line and they have something special in store for the fans!
With 4 out of the 10 teams done with their launch, all eyes have turned to the storied McLaren team. The Woking-based outfit have announced that they will be revealing the MCL60 (marking the 60th anniversary of the team in the sport) on the 13th of February. What’s more? They have also revealed the line-up of hosts that will do the business on reveal day. Safe to say, this announcement has turned a few heads.

The team announced that KSI’s friend, Vikkstar123 (of The Sidemen fame) and Channel 4 presenter Ariana Bravo will be leading the launch of the MCL60. The venue of the launch is as yet to be disclosed, however, an educated guess says it will happen at the Woking headquarters of the team. As soon as the news of Vikkstar123 hosting the reveal broke out, many fans stormed to Twitter to share their reactions.

It would appear that the internet personality has a close affinity with the sport, given his duel with Mark Webber. That being said, the announcement that he would be hosting an event of such importance was not expected. However, the fans were pretty buzzed to learn that Singh would be at the forefront of this epic crossover!
