Lewis Hamilton gets first taste of another Ferrari F1 car in Barcelona
Another important day fo🍃r Lewis Hamilton behind a Ferrari F1 car.

168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lewis Hamilton was back behind a Ferrari F1 car on ꦏTuesday as his preparation for the 2025 season continued in Barcelona.
This time, Hamilton got the opportunity 🐼to drive Ferrari’s 2024 challenger - the SF-24.
The SF-24 narrowly missed out on the F1 constructors’ championship to McLaren, with 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Charles Leclerc and 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Carlos Sainz winning five races in 2024.
On paper, th𓄧e 2024 car was 🅠a significant upgrade on its predecessor - the SF-23, which Hamilton drove last week.
The seven-time world champion crasꦫhed the 2023 car during his second day of running last week at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya.
However, Ferrari are involved in a Pirelli test, which is focused🍒 on next year’s tyres, and they were forced to make an unusual set up change as a result.
As per, to re🎃plicate 2026’s rules, Hamilton’s Ferrari was set up with extremely low🃏 levels of downforce.
This is uncommon for Barcelona, given traditionally teams would opt to run a lot more downforce during th༒e actual season because of the nature of the corn⭕ers.
With the 2026 rules expected to result in a 20 per cent loss in downforce, the set up tweak should give Pirelli better data as 🅰they continue with their tyre development.
Specific details of what happened in the test have yet to be revealed by Pir꧒elli, but it seems that for Hamilton, it’s gone a lot smoother than las𓆏t week.
Leclerc makes up for lost ground
On the other side of the Fe🦩r𓆉rari garage, Leclerc was also in action, driving the SF-23.
This utilised some of his allocated TPC (testing previous♈ cars) mileage.
Leclerc missed out on crucial running last week following Hamilton’🔜s shunt.
Sunday sounds are almost back 😮💨
