With the first day of the Barcelona Shakedown complete, we round up the best social media posted by F1 and the teams at the track.

The first day of the Barcelona Shakedown has been and gone, with a number of teams putting their new-look 2026 cars through their paces out on track.

In a change from last season, and with all new regulations coming into play this year, every F1 team has been offered the chance to gather crucial data in both Barcelona and Bahrain, with the Spanish track hosting a five-day shakedown.

Each team can only run on three of those five days, with some, such as McLaren, opting to wait until later in the week, while Aston Martin have confirmed they will run on the final two days. Williams, meanwhile, will miss the week entirely.

However, for plenty of other teams Monday was their first opportunity to hit the track and see what their 2026 creations are made of, as the likes of Mercedes, Red Bull and newcomers Cadillac all ventured out.

Check out the best social media posts below as all the teams shared their exploits from Barcelona.
