Jenson Button took to the track for the first time this season on the final day of testing at Valencia and said he was "quite happy" with the Pirelli tyres.
Using the 2010 McLaren for the last time - this year's model is unveiled in Germany tomorrow - the team said the three days had "given a very broad dataset with which we can begin to understand and hone the tyres and car set-up for 2011".
"It was an interesting day and a new experience for me to try the Pirellis," Button said. "They obviously work in a different way to last year's tyres - but most of my runs were reasonably good. I was quite happy with the way the car was working; we did a lot of good work on set-up. We're moving in the right direction.
"There's degradation - but you'll find that on any tyre - particularly on the Super-soft tyre, but that's to be expected. Now I'm looking forward to seeing the new car tomorrow and starting to test it properly next week."
