More tests for Pirelli: the upcoming sessions before start of 2025 F1 season. Here are the upcoming Pirelli tests scheduled before the start of the 2025 F1 season.

The two-day session in France and the one recently concluded in Barcelona will not be the only Pirelli test sessions planned before the 2025 F1 season kicks off. The Italian company has scheduled additional on-track sessions with different teams and at different circuits.

On Tuesday, February 4, and Wednesday, February 5, Ferrari and McLaren were in action in Barcelona. The teams’ drivers covered many kilometers in their respective 2024 cars, adapted for the occasion to test the 2026 tire prototypes. Prior to that, during the previous week, McLaren had already tested a type of wet tire during another two-day session at Paul Ricard.

However, the French and Catalan sessions will not conclude Pirelli’s on-track testing program at the start of the year. Before the lights go out in Australia, the Italian company is set to conduct further tests with different teams.
