Valtteri Bottas discusses the debut of Cadillac in the F1 season, noting his first test results and the importance of the initial steps for the team.
In a unique start to the 2026 F1 season, media and the public were unable to attend the January 'shakedown' event at the Catalonia circuit, marking an unorthodox beginning to the new season. Following this, the official F1 testing began, with media allowed at the Bahrain GP circuit, although public attendance was still restricted. For the first week of testing, audiences can expect one hour of live coverage of the test drive each day, providing fans a glimpse into the teams' preparations before the races commence.
