Mercedes has stayed in Italy for a few more days to test Pirelli’s 2022 18-inch tyres. Lewis Hamilton is testing on Tuesday and Valtteri Bottas on Wednesday.
Mercedes has already tested the 18-inch tyres in Abu Dhabi with George Russell behind the wheel.
Renault, McLaren and Ferrari also tested the new tyres before, while Red Bull and Alfa Romeo will perform the test in Barcelona, after the Spanish Grand Prix in May.
You can look at some photos of the tyres below.
