We're finally here, it's time for teams to roll out their contenders and validate out on the race track the hard work conducted in the past months.

After the hype and talking, analysing and projecting, we'll now see who got it right and who may have got it completely wrong.

Most teams will be running a single driver this week, with Williams and Renault splitting duties on a daily basis.

Live from Barcelona: pre-season testing - Day 1

Testing on home turf, Fernando Alonso will be in action on Monday with McLaren's striking MCL33 and the hope of working unhindered by any unforeseen issues.

Mercedes is apparently keeping its options open for Wednesday and Thursday with regard to its line-up as the current weather forecast in Barcelona could wreak havoc on its programme.

While expectations are low for big changes among the front-runners, anything goes within the mid-field which is expected to see a massive battle this season.

The following schedule for this week's four-day test at the Circuit de Catalunya is provisional as teams are free to swap drivers at their will.
