Mick Schumacher, son of seven-time world champion Michael, made his Formula One test debut for Ferrari in Bahrain on Tuesday and lapped second fastest behind Red Bull's Max Verstappen.
His time of 1:29.976 was set on the softest and fastest C5 tyres – softer than anyone else's – and he completed 56 laps on a day when track time was limited by bad weather washing out much of the middle of the day.
Tuesday's test in the SF90 was Mick's first experience of a modern F1 car, although he did drive his father's 1994 title-winning Benetton at the Spa-Francorchamps circuit before the 2017 Belgian Grand Prix. He last raced for the team in 2006, before a comeback with Mercedes from 2010 to 2012. He has not been seen in public since suffering severe head injuries in a skiing accident in the French Alps in December 2013.
Lewis Hamilton, Sunday's race winner for Mercedes after Ferrari's Charles Leclerc suffered a late engine problem, was sixth fastest.
