Oliver Bearman took the
Haas F1 car out for its first laps at the Italian track after
Ferrari also debuted the SF-26 a day ago.
Haas launched its car back on Monday, 19 January,
featuring a largely white livery for the upcoming season. Moving forward, the American team continues to use a
Ferrari power unit during the new regulations as well.
Next week, the Barcelona pre-season test will follow from 26 to 30 January. Teams can run on track during three days out of the five.
