photoshoped...
the shadow on the F1 does not angle forward like the Ferrari on the right - both have a similar shape on the corner, but shadows are different
the reflection in the mirrors on the F1 is much brighter
the horizontal lines on the F1 have much more detail than the two ferraris and has less JPEG artifacts
no reflection of the trees (at right of picture) in the back window of the F1
no glare spot on the back horizontal panel of the F1 (compared to the ferrari on the right)

The thing that concerns me is how narrow the McLaren F1 looks very different to most supercar ie long wide even the fazza's are a fair chunck wider. I know they are big lanes but still.

i think the original chop just got the perspective on the F1 a bit wrong.. it should be a bit wider, btu then it would look taller...
i'm guessing whoever did it didn't have an F1 in the driveway to take multiple shots
didn't this pic originally have a different car in the middle??

No shit but try like 3 million it just appears very narrow for the type of car it is thats all. But since it has been said it was a chop that expalins it.

I don't see why everyone thinks its a chop. The shadow and stuff looks right to me. Maybe you should all have a closer look.
As for other pics.

And I suppose the moon landing was a fake too.

um the pic of the yellow mclaren F1 is called a F1 LM not a GTR.
also the MClaren is alot narrower as it only has 1 seat in the front that is in the middle offset a little.
Thats why its narrower as in the mid 90's they used to advertise the standard model on TV by having some newlyweds sit in the front seat leaving there wedding (it looks like a widder version of a bucket seat) so it can fit 2 people sorta didnt look to comfy.
and the weird thing about mclaren F1's are is the designer hates the radio so standard they come with a CD player but with no FM tuner built in  WEEEEIRD!!!???!!!?!?!?.
PS: Benetton is not a team in a way its a brand of womens clothing (United colors of Benetton) that is a vailable in your local DAVID JONES and MYER lol .
they have sponsorship all over motorsport.
they even had majority sponsorship on a Euro Toring car back in the mid 90's

I don't reckon its chopped:
1. Check the angle of the side mirror shadows on the ground of the F1 and 360. They are on the same angle.
2. The mirrors on the F1 are reflecting the reflection off its windows. The 360 and 355 have their windows open.
3. Pic size has been reduced creating this distortion. I have a larger version of this pic (1672x1017) the JPEG artifacts aren't there. PM your e-mail and I'll send a copy.
4. The tree aren't tall enough to be reflected in the F1s rear window. They're only just reflected in the 360.
5. Look below the righthand side mirror on the F1. There is a glare spot.
P.S Go the Mini!!!

I thought Benetton were bought out by Renault and that's why Flavio Briatore runs the Renault team now. AFAIK the Stewart team was bought by Jaguar then Red Bull.
The Benetton car in the pic seems to be the 1986 BMW B186 turbo, their first F1 car.

No, but I have been a graphic designer, and done photo manipulation myself since 2000. A lot of the things you point to as proof happen often in normal photos. You should know that. It makes it a little sus, but doesn't confirm chop status.
Also, the McLaren F1 came with 3 seats (atleast, the later models). One up in the center, and one on either side, and set back a little.
Have a look:
And if you can be bothered, look about half way down this page:
http://www.angelfire.com/biz5/extremesupercars/car s/mclaren/mclarenf1.html
has a good front on shot of the 3 seats.
And yeah, I hear the designer hates radios.
