McLaren took to the track for the first time with the MCL35M in a filming day at Silverstone on Tuesday.

Both Lando Norris and new signing Daniel Ricciardo got behind the wheel of the first Mercedes-powered McLaren since 2014 in damp conditions at the home of the British Grand Prix.

McLaren became the first team to launch its 2021 car during a ceremony on Monday evening, although it was absent as it was already nestled in a garage at Silverstone.

Wasting no time in taking to the track, Norris was the first to experience the MCL35M, with the 'M' a reference to Mercedes, with Ricciardo taking the reigns later in the day.

GPFans has compiled a gallery of images from McLaren's first day of the year trackside.
