Johnson's day at McLaren

Jimmie Johnson has arrived in London and is "seeing the sights" ahead of his ride swap with Fernando Alonso in Bahrain on Nov. 26.

The seven-time NASCAR Cup Series champion and two-time Formula 1 champion will take to Bahrain International Circuit the day after the F1 season-ending Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. On Wednesday, Johnson visited the McLaren Technology Centre, where he got an in-depth look at the Formula 1 facility before spending time in the racing simulator and being fitted for his seat.
