Lando Norris set the pace on the opening day of pre-season testing in Bahrain at the Bahrain International Circuit, whilst Haas’ Esteban Ocon completed the most laps. 

Day one was a relatively calm affair, with the exception being a bizarre one-hour red flag following a circuit-wide power cut. 

Reliability was not a problem for the teams, with not one car having come to a halt on the circuit. 

Day two promises to be a fascinating one, with the FIA reporting a chance of rain throughout the entire day.

Cars will be on-track between 10:00-14:00 and 15:00-19:00 local time, with this being 07:00-11:00 – 12:00-16:00 in the UK, which is three hours behind Bahrain.
