Scuderia Ferrari’s five days of testing at Fiorano ended today, with Mick Schumacher driving in the morning and test driver Callum Ilott taking over for the afternoon. No fewer than seven drivers took part in the test: apart from Mick and Callum, the others were the official race drivers Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz, the latter making his track debut with the Prancing Horse, Robert Shwartzman and Marcus Armstrong. Giuliano Alesi also bid farewell to the Ferrari Driver Academy, having his first drive in a Formula 1 car, 30 years on from his father Jean’s debut with the team. Over the five days, the SF71H completed over 500 laps, equivalent to more than 1500 kilometres. It was a useful experience for the drivers and also for the team, enabling the crew to get back in the swing of racing, testing all the procedures for the coming season, which at least for the first part will be the same as last year’s, with personnel split into sub-groups and bubbles and having to wear masks as part of the Covid-19 protocols.
Following the great success of visitors and the enthusiastic response of the fans, the Ferrari Museum has extended until April 30 "Michael 50", the exhibition dedicated to Schumacher.The exhibition, opened last January 3 on the day of the 50th birthday of the champion, tells of his extraordinary career and his unparalleled record in the history of F1.The most important Ferrari single-seater among those driven by Schumacher in his eleven years with the Scuderia are reunited in the Hall of Victories: from the F310 of 1996, with which he won three GPs in his first season with the Prancing Horse, to the F399 that conquered the title Builders in 1999 opening an exceptional winning cycle. There is also the F1-2000 of the legendary "Red Dawn", with which Michael won the world title 21 years after Jody Scheckter at Suzuka. Also present were the F2002 and F2004, the record cars, and the 248 F1 of 2006, the car of its 72nd victory, the last one with Ferrari.The exhibition also reveals a lesser-known side of Schumacher, the developer of road cars. After leaving Formula 1, in fact, the Kerpen champion remained in Ferrari not only as a Scuderia consultant but also to contribute to the development of some road cars, including the 430 Scuderia of 2007 and the Ferrari California of 2008."Michael 50" is organized in collaboration with the Keep Fighting Foundation, and joins the other Ferrari Museum exhibitions: "Driven by Enzo" and "Passion and Legend".
