The curtain has closed on the F1 2022 season with a Ferrari 1-2-3 in the Abu Dhabi test. Fernando Alonso and Oscar Piastri make their respective debuts with Aston Martin and McLaren. F1Testing F1
Carlos Sainz set the pace on Pirelli’s 2023 tyres at the end-of-season test in Abu Dhabi, leading the way from Charles Leclerc and Ferrari’s young driver Robert Shwartzman who delivered an impressive display, recovering from an early spin.
Alonso wasted no time in venturing out, not only the track going green, but also the car that he was driving as he got behind the wheel of the Aston Martin AMR22 which was rocking the unbranded look. Still, experience was not exactly proving a virtue in this regard as Alonso also had a moment at Turn 13, but all of the spinners would carry on unscathed.
Then came the red flags as Piastri’s McLaren came to a halt at Turn 7, a delay fortunately lasting only 10 minutes as Leclerc went on to clock a 1:25.383 to put him on top of the timings at the unofficial lunchbreak, 0.32s up on Shwartzman with Alonso third. Sainz looked to carry on Ferrari’s pace-setting form and Lance Stroll was in for Alonso at Aston Martin, after the Spaniard had upped his tally to 97 laps.as he looks ahead to Aston Martin’s chances in 2023. “When I signed for Aston Martin [in July], I was 90% happy. When they started improving and they finished the season on a high, I was 100%., Lando Norris was flying solo and so pressed on with tyre testing duties, though a spin at Turn 13 threatened to derail his plans.
Once that arrived, it was now a Ferrari one-two-three, Sainz going fastest with a 1:25.245 to sit ahead of Leclerc and Shwartzman. Stroll had the closest look at that fearsome Ferrari trio, going a tenth faster than Alonso’s best effort of a 1:26.312.
