Hamilton set out on track at 9:16am local time.

Hꦑe is driving a 2023 version of their car, which is the newest allo🤡wed in F1's rules.

The 'testing of previous cars' sporting ꦍregulation insists that the car must be two years old, so Hamilton is driving the SF-23. The rule also limits a driver to 1000km of testing an old car for the entire year.

Ferrari's 2024 car became even more competi🐼tive than the version that Hamilton is dri🐻ving on Wednesday. And he will hope that their 2025 car is better, still.

But testing a former model will giꦗve Hamilton an important head-start as he adapts to a new seating position and steering wheel.

It also gives him a first day o⛎f working with Ferrari engineers.

Wednesday's first test as a Fer🐬rari driver was also the first time that Hamilton has driven an F1 car without a Mercedes engine.

Hamilton must wai🔜t until official F1 testing in Bahrain to drive the new season's machine.
