Formula 1 pre-season testing ahead of the 2026 season officially got underway earlier this week as Monday represented the start of the first event of the year in Barcelona.
Held behind-closed-doors and with no live timing available, each team is permitted to run for three days across the five-day test.
Dry weather greeted the paddock for the opening day, while Tuesday saw rain for the majority of the day. So far, only Red Bull has run on both days, leaving them with one final day of running.
McLaren and Aston Martin are yet to be seen and with more mixed weather expected for Day 3, tricky conditions could make data gathering rather difficult.
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 3 from the Spanish track takes place!
