The F1 2026 season officially got underway earlier this week as Monday in Barcelona marked the first event of the year.
The behind-closed-doors test allows teams to carry out running as they collect data on their new cars.
Lap times are largely irrelevant at this stage of the year as teams rack up mileage and an initial understanding of how the cars are behaving on the track.
While F1 is restricting as much access to this test as possible, RacingNews365 will do our best to keep you informed about what is happening in Barcelona!
Below, you can follow live updates as day 2 from the Spanish track takes place!
