The McLaren MCL32 has made its track debut at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya as part of a filming day.
Fernando Alonso was behind the wheel of the team’s new 2017 F1 car, which features a new orange and black livery.
The Spaniard was given the first drive of the new car, taking to the circuit on Sunday morning to shakedown the MCL32.
Teams are allowed two filming days per season, with each one capped at 100km of on-track mileage.
McLaren shared a picture on Twitter of Alonso heading out on track, with the Honda F1 account then posting a video of the car emerging from the garage.

The MCL32 will next be on track on Monday for the first day of pre-season testing at Barcelona.
