Since 2024, each team has been required to have young drivers participate in at least two Free Practice sessions (one per car) on Friday morning. To be considered a “young driver”, the rookie must not have participated in more than two F1 World Championship races during his career.
At Silverstone, three rookies will take part in Free Practice 1 of the British Grand Prix: Oliver Bearman with Haas, Jack Doohan with Alpine – the only two teams to have already complied with the obligation of two practice sessions – and Franco Colapinto with Williams. The Argentinian will take part in his first official session in Formula 1.
