Ferrari has announced that Lewis Hamilton will take to the track first on the opening morning of pre-season testing. With each driver getting 12 hours in the car across the three days of action in Bahrain, Hamilton will be first out for Ferrari on Wednesday morning between 10:00-14:00 local time. Team-mate Charles Leclerc is to then take over the SF-25 for the afternoon session, running from 15:00-19:00 local time in Bahrain. Ferrari's plans for Thursday and Friday will be announced in due course. It means Hamilton and Max Verstappen will not be on track together during testing until at least Friday, with the world champion set for the afternoon running on Wednesday before handing over to Liam Lawson for a full day on Thursday before he concludes the test for Red Bull on Friday. A full overview of the driver line-ups in testing is available here.
