The McLaren team has taken the covers off this year's Formula 1 contender, which has been given the designation MCL60 in celebration of the squad's 60th anniversary since Bruce McLaren founded the team in 1963.

This year's livery features once again a striking papaya orange and blue design. McLaren's signature color was first carried by the team in late 60s and a quickly became  a fan favourite, and that remains the case to this day.

Check out our gallery of pictures of the event and the team's new car.
