You’re McLaren. You’re one of Britain’s modern automotive success stories. A full-on supercar venture was a big gamble but it’s paid off in a big way. Your hybrid hypercar stopped the presses and your super sportscars have sold en masse.

With a newly-revealed and controversial track weapon on the way and a massive Carbon Composites Technology centre to open in Yorkshire, there’s scope for a bit of fun. That’s how we like to imagine this little stunt came about in the minds of McLaren’s people. After just seven years on the road McLaren is a household name in the supercar ranks and the Senna could be their greatest creation yet. Skidding one around a warehouse within the aforementioned composites compound to inaugurate it looks to be a good way of getting everyone’s attention. Though parking the stunning MP4/5 across the way from the squealing rubber might have been the perfect distraction before the Senna trundles up to park next to it.
