The 2025 Winter Test schedule

      This year's winter tests will be held according to the usual schedule.

      All three days in Bahrain, from February 26 to February 28, unless additional changes occur, riders will spend two four–hour sessions on the track - from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. local (and Moscow time) and from 3 p.m. to 7 p.m.

      Between sessions, there is a mandatory one-hour technological break for lunch, changing machine settings and configuration, if necessary.

      The weather will not be hot – up to 16...18C in the afternoon with variable clouds and gusty north-westerly wind, rain is even possible on Thursday.

      The broadcast from the tests will be conducted by Sky Sports F1.

      The new Formula 1 season starts in Melbourne, Australia, with the Albert Park race scheduled for March 16.
