Daniel Ricciardo has made his first metres for McLaren. In the new MCL35M, Ricciardo went for a film day on the Silverstone circuit, and he immediately had a lot of fun doing so.

Ricciardo for the first time in the McLaren

McLaren was the first team to present its car for 2021 on Monday. Not much may be done to the new cars, but McLaren may have had the biggest change with a new Mercedes engine. To test that change, McLaren is therefore already on the track.

Lando Norris and Daniel Ricciardo were both in action at Silverstone on Tuesday to put their new weapon through its paces. Of course, their laps were filmed during this filming day and Ricciardo was able to wave at the drone. The Australian had to get used to the speed of an F1 car.
