McLaren has confirmed its driver line-up for the second F1 2015 winter test.
The four-day event takes place at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya from the 19-22 February.
Jenson Button will drive the recently-revealed McLaren MP4-30 on the first two days of the test.
His team-mate Fernando Alonso will take over driving the Honda-powered car for days three and four.
The MP4-30 suffered a difficult debut test at the Circuito de Jerez last week, with numerous reliability problems costing McLaren track time. The new car completed just 79 laps over the four-day event.
McLaren is the first team to announce its driver schedule for the first Barcelona test. The team confirmed the news on Twitter.
