As usual, in the closing stages, the focus switched to race simulation work. Leclerc did 28 laps and Sainz did two more.

Programme.  Qualifying starts at 15 tomorrow, but first there’s the final free practice session at 12. The Spanish Grand Prix gets underway at 15 on Sunday.

Free practice 1: Carlos and Charles on track with Hard and Medium tyres

In the first practice session for the Spanish Grand Prix, the Scuderia Ferrari Mission Winnow drivers were fifth fastest with Charles Leclerc and sixth with Carlos Sainz.

Two compounds.  The drivers started off on the Hard tyres, before fitting the Mediums in the last part of the session, which is when they set their best times. Charles stopped the clocks in 1’18”996, completing 25 laps while Carlos ran 22 laps with a best time of 1’19”020.
