Schedule change to the Pirelli tyre test at Monza
With heavy rain predicted for this morning at the Italian circuit, the schedule of the two-day Pirelli tyre test has already been adjusted for Tuesday.
On Day 1, five drivers from four team tested slick tyre compounds for the 2026 season.
Max Verstappen and Yuki Tsunoda for Red Bull Racing, and Felipe Drugovich for Aston Martin, completed their programmes in the morning
Later, Williams and Red Bull ran their sessions, with Carlos Sainz and Isack Hadjar behind the wheel
How today's afternoon session will proceed depends on the weather.
If there is no rain, Williams and Racing Bulls will continue using slick tyres.
Should there will be moderate rain, Pirelli "might take the opportunity" to test the intermediate and wet tyres to gather useful data on the crossover points between the two compounds, the Italians explained.

Earlier this year, Liberty Media’s purchase of Dorna Sports (holders of MotoGP’s commercial rights) was confirmed by the European Commission, placing the company under the Formula One Group umbrella.
