Every F1 Driver's Fastest Test Lap Time Including Norris, Hamilton and Verstappen

Every F1 driver's fastest lap time has been revealed following the first 2026 shakedown test in Barcelona this week.

F1 returned to the track for the first time this week at the Circuit de Catalunya, as the 11 teams build up to the start of a new era in Melbourne this March.

Teams have been challenged with the most radical regulation change in decades, with new chassis and engines to deal with for 2026.

The drastic change means every team is allowed extra testing days to get their new challengers up to speed, with Barcelona the first of three test events ahead of the season opener.

Regulations aren't the only thing changing in F1, as Cadillac become the 11th team on the grid with veterans Valtteri Bottas and Sergio Perez making a welcome return to the grid for the Americans.

British 18-year-old Arvid Lindblad will be the only rookie on the grid this year, as he fills in Isack Hadjar's vacant seat at Racing Bulls following promotion to Red Bull.

Audi also make their highly anticipated F1 debut, with the German manufacturer taking over from Sauber this year.

Despite this week's shakedown being entirely about reliability rather than performance, unofficial lap times have been widely documented online through insiders at the track.

Out of the 11 team's, only one car failed to take the track in Catalonia with Williams missing the entire event due to 'focus on car performance'.

According to Soy Motor via X, Mercedes have been the most impressive team in Barcelona, however George Russell's 1:16.445 was not the quickest time of the week.

That was set in the dying moments by Ferrari's Lewis Hamilton who set a 1:16.3 with just minutes remaining of the week's test.

The Silver Arrows' reliability has also looked rock solid, with around 500 laps completed across their three day allocation, more than any other team.

After Russell, the next quickest driver was Lando Norris with a 1:16.554 in the final session of the week.

Ferrari's Charles Leclerc was also amongst the top times, clocking a 1:16.653 in his final session for Ferrari on Friday morning.
