Ferrari drivers Sebastian Vettel and Charles Leclerc will be running on Tuesday at Mugello where the Italian outfit will conduct a day of testing with a 2018-spec SF71H.<\/p>\n
Ferrari is the third team after Mercedes and Renault to kick itself in gear by with a 2018 car while Racing Point enjoyed a limited mileage filming with its 2020 RP20.<\/p>\n
It was initially believed that Ferrari would also opt for a filming day with its SF1000 when Leclerc drove the machine from the Scuderia’s factory in Maranello to its neighboring Fiorano test track.<\/p>\n
Instead, the team will rake up as many laps as it can at Mugello, a track owned by Ferrari and which has offered to stage a round of the F1 world championship a week after the Italian Grand Prix at Monza.<\/p>\n
Red Bull Racing will warm up its RB16 contender and its crews at a filming day at Silverstone on Thursday while Scuderia AlphaTauri will run its new car at a promotional day at Imola.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
In addition to helping drivers get up to speed, the tests also allow team personnel to practice the mandatory COVID-19 protocols that will be in force at races this summer and which will expect the teams’ work in the garage.<\/p>\n
