The Formula 1 season came to an end last weekend in Abu Dhabi. However, that does not mean that all team employees and drivers can go on holiday yet. Today the post season test will be completed at the Yas Marina circuit. All teams must field two cars in the all-day test.
Rookietest
The teams must each reserve one car for a rookie. This means that the youngsters get the opportunity to show themselves all day long. Only the Alfa Romeo team has not yet announced who will drive, but it is likely that Theo Pourchaire will drive. Most teams opt for the rookies who also played during the first free practice in Abu Dhabi. Only Ayumu Iwasa and Franco Colapinto did not race in FP1.
These rookies are in action today:
Red Bull Racing: Jake Dennis
Mercedes: Frederik Vesti
Ferrari: Robert Shwartzman
McLaren: Patricio O’Ward
Aston Martin: Philip Drugovich
Alpine: Jack Doohan
Williams: Franco Colapinto & Zak O’Sullivan
AlphaTauri: Ayumu Iwasa
Alfa Romeo: NNB
Haas: Oliver Bearman
Tire test
All ten teams must also enter a car for a tire test for tire supplier Pirelli. The intention is for the regular drivers to drive the car here. Only the Haas team chooses to use another driver, here Pietro Fittipaldi will take place behind the wheel. Only the McLaren and Alfa Romeo teams have not yet confirmed who will drive.
These drivers will be in action during the tire test:
Red Bull Racing: Sergio Perez
Mercedes: George Russell
