Formula 1 second pre-season testing, Day 1: live results and updates. Sebastian returns to the track for the first day of the second pre-season test.

The new week brings us one step closer to the official start of the 2017 Formula 1 season, and most importantly to one of the final preparation stages of the teams ahead of the new championship, the second Formula 1 pre-season test session. Another four days at the Catalunya Circuit in Barcelona, where Scuderia Ferrari will try to bulid on the positive feedback received after the first pre-season testing session, that took place last week, and gave the Maranello team many reasons to be satisfied with the technical development of the SF70H, the Scudera Ferrari car with which team principal Maurizio Arrivabene hopes to be able to bring the Italian team back in the fight for first place.

Sebastian Vettel will be on the Spanish circuit on Tuesday, ready to run the SF70H as much as possible in order to further gather important data for the team.
