Seven-time World Champion Lewis Hamilton got his second taste of Ferrari Formula 1 machinery when he completed an afternoon of running in a 2023-spec Prancing Horse at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya.
It came after Hamilton completed 30 laps at Ferrari’s own track Fiorano, adjacent to their Maranello base, as part of an acclimatisation programme to adjust to his new team after spending 12 seasons with Mercedes.

On Tuesday at a bright but chilly Barcelona track, the Briton took over from team mate Charles Leclerc, who did the first half of the day, with both expected to get more running at the same venue over the next two days (weather permitting) as part of a private test.
Hamilton’s focus will be to adjust to his new cockpit, including getting comfortable with the feel of the pedals and the steering wheel settings as well as starting to gel with how Ferrari operate at a race track.
