Wrong way!

40

McLaren continued its filming at the Circuit de Catalunya on Tuesday, but the MP4-30 itself wasn't running. That didn't stop the team from getting shots of the car on track though, as it posted this onboard image of Jenson Button in Barcelona. For the eagle-eyed F1 fans, there's something not quite right about this picture... Aside from the steering wheel being completely blank, Button is actually facing the wrong way looking back down at the first corner from Turn 2.
