Arthur Leclerc had his first taste of an F1 car in Barcelona
"You never forget your first," Ferrari captioned the video.
"Arthur Leclerc heads out for his first laps in an F1 car."
Important tests underway
On January 29 and 30, Ferrari's main drivers, Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz, navigated the previous year's SF-23, conducting essential tests for the sport's tyre supplier at the Catalunya Circuit.
While Leclerc and Sainz shared driving duties in both the 2023 and 2022 challengers on the 30th, Oliver Bearman will have the track to himself on the 31st in the F1-75.
Ferrari harboured optimism heading into these tests, seeking to address inconsistencies from the previous season that cost them second place in the constructors' standings to Mercedes.
