The Scuderia became the latest team to reveal the sound of its F1 2026 engine on Friday, posting a clip of its fire up to social media. The 46-second video shows drivers Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton in attendance as the powertrain comes to life, with the seven-time world champion filming the moment on his phone.

Lewis Hamilton has made a significant change to his backroom staff after parting company with race engineer Riccardo Adami following one fractious season together at Ferrari.

Fornaroli joined the McLaren junior team at the end of the 2025 Formula Two campaign after winning the championship ahead of Jak Crawford and Richard Verschoor.
