There will be fresh blood aplenty in Free Practice 1 sessions this Formula 1 season, with teams required to run rookies twice in each of their cars.
To be frank, a rookie's FP1 outing is usually not the headliner of an F1 grand prix. Teams often leave it until the very last second to tick that box, leaving young drivers with what are effectively the most 'perfunctory' sessions of the year: something like FP1 in Abu Dhabi, in conditions well detached from those of the actual grand prix, or in Canada, on a street track with oft-suboptimal weather.
