New plans for ‘filming days’ have been written into the Sporting Regulations for 2024, with Haas set to take advantage of the new offer.
Filming days in Formula 1 were originally meant for marketing purposes, but teams have found ways to use them as valuable test days. Until 2023, teams were allowed to cover 200 kilometres divided into two sessions. However, the rules for 2024 now allow teams to drive 200 kilometres per session, with a total distance of 400 kilometres. These sessions cannot be held on the same day. Haas, a struggling team, plans to make the most of this opportunity by using both filming days before the test days in Bahrain. They hope this will give them a strong start to the season.
