It was a small touchdown, just a few laps that tasted like little and a lot at the same time. After presenting on Thursday a Ferrari F1-75 that charmed almost everyone due to its appearance, the Cavallino team did its first test this Friday.
At its circuit, the Fiorano circuit, and coinciding with the presentation of the Mercedes W13, the Ferrari took to the track in the fog of Modena, ready to complete the shakedown with a few first laps to check that everything was ‘born’ well.
Enjoy the photos of the new Ferrari F1-75 on the circuit, this is what the car looks like

The photos, as you can see, show that the beauty that was observed in the new Formula 1 when it was presented online the day before is the same when you see it in motion on the asphalt. In addition, we could see that what Ferrari showed was really the first version of the car, with that extreme front wing, those “swimming pools” in the sidepods and the gills on the sides.
Ferrari has not yet resorted to a filming day (filming day) where up to 100 demonstration kilometers are allowed, but has pulled one of the two demonstration events , limited to 15 kilometers, with the sole objective of checking all the systems of the new car, to make sure that everything was in its place.
Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz have been in charge of driving the new car, with special Pirelli tires for this type of day. The Monegasque, who finished the 2021 season behind Carlos Sainz in the drivers’ championship, was the first chosen because he was the veteran of the lineup, and the Madrid native waited a few more minutes.
Leclerc was already the protagonist of a similar Ferrari test last year, although on that occasion it was not on the track but through the streets of Maranello, at a dawn that the residents of the town will take to wake up.
Carlos Sainz, for his part, and after the first contact with the F1-75, was in charge of making fans, approaching the fence that separates the road from the circuit and signing autographs to the brave tifosi who fought the cold (gloves were needed and hats) to see from afar the car that has to make them dream in this exciting 2022.
