McLaren drivers Lando Norris and Daniel Ricciardo will drive a pair of Ayrton Senna's "iconic" cars at the Goodwood Festival of Speed in July, including the legendary MP4/4.

Norris and Ricciardo are the first drivers to announce their attendance at the annual Hillclimb event after five teams confirmed last week they will have an on-site presence.

The event, which was cancelled last year due to the Covid-19 pandemic, will run on the weekend of July 8-11, one week ahead of the British Grand Prix at Silverstone.

Across the weekend, Norris and Ricciardo will share three of Senna's most iconic cars, the 1990 MP4/5, the 1991 MP4/6 and the all-conquering 1988 MP4/4.

Neither driver is a stranger to the Festival of Speed with Norris having driven the Can-Am McLaren M8D up the hill when the event last took place in 2019.

In the same year, Ricciardo, then a Renault driver, took the V8 Renault E20 for a drive in extremely slippery conditions.
