Day two of the winter test in Bahrain is upon us. Almost all drivers venture onto the Sakhir circuit on Thursday – only Red Bull and Williams opt not to switch drivers. Liam Lawson and Carlos Sainz take on the entire day and will only be replaced by Max Verstappen and Alex Albon respectively on Friday. Check here to see who gets in the car when!
From February 26 to February 28, the Bahrain International Circuit opens its doors to Formula 1. All teams get the opportunity to extensively test the new equipment. Each driver is allowed to put the car through its paces for a day and a half. This three-day event is a crucial baseline measurement. It provides the first opportunity to test the new cars on the circuit.
