Ferrari back on track
Ferrari scheduled the SF-25 to run at Mugello on April 1 as part of the post-race shakedown, with a separate Monza filming day planned for the SF-26 — Lewis Hamilton is already feeding private development notes into Ferrari’s program. ( )
Test drivers Antonio Giovinazzi, Arthur Leclerc and Antonio Fuoco are named to run Ferrari’s SF‑25 during the Mugello sessions. (es.motorsport.com) A separate Monza filming day for the SF‑26 has been reported for April 21, with the outing constrained to the 200‑kilometre filming‑day limit. (superdeportivo.com.ar) Lewis Hamilton has held private meetings with Ferrari personnel, messaged the team’s head of aerodynamics and supplied development documents and notes intended to influence SF‑26 work. (planetf1.com) Italian coverage and team reports indicate Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton are expected to be present for the Monza filming day rather than reserve drivers. (sport.sky.it) Ferrari will use the Monza outing to validate high‑speed aerodynamic elements — including the rotatable “Macarena” wing — and to assess energy‑recovery and aero behaviour under real‑world running. (sport.sky.it) Those on‑track plans are enabled by recent adjustments to Testing‑of‑Previous‑Cars (TPC) arrangements that allow one‑year‑old 2025 machinery to be used in 2026 testing programmes, a change documented by Autosport and Motorsport.
