Crawford Leads Abu Dhabi Post-Season Tests
December 9, 2025
Jack Crawford, driving for Aston Martin, topped the timing sheets during the one-day post-season tests in Abu Dhabi, where teams evaluated the 2026 tires and gave opportunities to young drivers.
Each team ran two cars: one for junior drivers and another adapted to the new 2026 tires and concepts. Mercedes, for example, tested a steerable front wing. The session was interrupted by a red flag following an accident involving Rio Hiraoka in the Haas the Japanese driver was unharmed, and his car was cleared in 15 minutes.
A total of 25 drivers took to the track. Kimi Antonelli led both in distance covered and fastest lap, completing 157 laps almost equivalent to three full race distances.
