Ferrari conducted a filming day at the Circuit de Catalunya on Sunday, with Sebastian Vettel shaking down the Scuderia's SF90 a day ahead of the start of pre-season testing.

Vettel did most of the running, but team mate Charles Leclerc was also given a series of laps onboard the Italian outfit's 2019 car.

Ferrari remained under the 100 km limit, as filming day regulations impose, and ran its car on mandatory demo tyres.

Vettel will handle testing duties on Monday in Barcelona while Leclerc will be in action on Tuesday, with the team alternating its drivers again on Wednesday and Thursday.

Phillip van Osten

Motor racing was a backdrop from the outset in Phillip van Osten's life. Born in Southern California, Phillip grew up with the sights and sounds of fast cars thanks to his father, Dick van Osten, an editor and writer for Auto Speed and Sport and Motor Trend. Phillip's passion for racing grew even more when his family moved to Europe and he became acquainted with the extraordinary world of Grand Prix racing. He was an early contributor to the monthly French F1i Magazine, often providing a historic or business perspective on Formula 1's affairs. In 2012, he co-authored along with fellow journalist Pierre Van Vliet the English-language adaptation of a limited edition book devoted to the great Belgian driver Jacky Ickx. He also authored "The American Legacy in Formula 1", a book which recounts the trials and tribulations of American drivers in Grand Prix racing. Phillip is also a commentator for Belgian broadcaster Be.TV for the US Indycar series.
