Every rookie to drive in FP1 in F1 2026

The 2026 Formula 1 calendar mandates each of the 11 teams to field a rookie driver in free‑practice 1 twice, totaling four rookie outings per team. A rookie is any driver with no more than one Grand Prix start. So far, the list includes Leonardo Fornaroli (McLaren) in Barcelona and Hungary; Frederik Vesti (Mercedes) in the same two venues; Ayumu Iwasa (Red Bull) in Barcelona and Italy; Dino Beganovic (Ferrari) in Barcelona and Austria; Luke Browning (Williams) in Austria and Italy after a Barcelona snag; Arvid Lindblad (Racing Bulls) in Australia and China; Jak Crawford (Aston Martin) across four races; Ryo Hirakawa (Haas) in Austria and Hungary; Paul Aron (Audi) and Freddie Slater (Audi) across four events; Paul Aron again for Alpine; and Colton Herta (Cadillac) in four locations. The table tracks each rookie’s FP1 appearances to date.
