Ferrari’s extensive run plan for Hamilton

The Italian outfit have planned eꦑxtensive testing to help Hamilton gear up for his first s🎃eason with the team.

Ferrari have booked the Barcelona circuit for at 🔜least four days at the end of the month to provide Hamilton with additional time in their older F1 machinery.

Ferrari team principal Fred Vasseur iꦦnsisted he is “not worried at all” about Hamilton adapting to his new environment after spending 12 seasons at Merc༺edes.

“We know thaꦐt we have a lot of procedures to assimilate during this couple of days, but h🍬e is experienced enough to do it,” the Frenchman said.

“We have the advantage to have the simulator and he will be able to do a race simulation and a qualifying simulation in the♏ simulator, and to be f𒉰ully prepared with the steering wheel and all the particularities of the car. But I am not worried about this, and it is not the biggest challenge.”

Hamilton will make his first public appearance as a Ferrari driver alongside new teammate 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Charles Leclerc at F1’s sp🦂ecial season launch event at London’s O2 Arena on 18 February.
