These drivers will be in action during FP1 for the Abu Dhabi GP

AlphaTauri has already complied with the rule requiring each team to field a driver with less than two races of F1 experience during two free practice sessions in a season. Nyck de Vries and Liam Lawson, as well as Isack Hadjar, all drove a first free practice session once as rookies at the time.

For Williams and McLaren, they have not previously put a driver other than their regular driver in the 2023 car during a FP1, but with Logan Sargeant and Oscar Piastri starting the season as rookies, they only need to put one other driver in the car to comply with FIA regulations. Respectively Zak O'Sullivan and Jack Doohan will get the chance.

Red Bull Racing is the only team yet to field two drivers. Isack Hadjar and Jake Dennis will sit in the RB19s of Max Verstappen and Sergio Perez.
