VIDEO: Rosberg puts McLaren Senna through its paces!

The McLaren Senna has caused quite the stir in recent times, with people desperate to get their hands on the hypercar inspired by Formula 1 icon Ayrton Senna. The Brazilian's fellow former F1 champion Nico Rosberg was among those wanting a try, and he shared his taste on YouTube.

Rosberg took his McLaren Senna to Le Castellet, home of the French Grand Prix, to put the £750,000 beast through its paces.

Before he could get to the track, the trip from Rosberg's home in Monaco wasn't as straightforward as he might have hoped – a brush with the law and almost running out of fuel kept the 2016 champion on his toes!

However, once he got to the track, you can see just how powerful McLaren's latest monster is – the former F1 star getting out of shape on more than a few occasions.

Check out the video below to see how Rosberg got on!
