The final day of the Formula One winter test in Bahrain is already upon us. Red Bull Racing haVE been the most productive F1 team on the grid so far, despite a minor setback on Friday afternoon. Can Sergio Perez continue that line?

No Verstappen, but De Vries on final day of testing

While Max Verstappen made a strong impression during the first two days, the reigning world champions will not be in action on day three. Instead, Perez will take on the entire third day, after the Mexican stepped into the RB19 for the first time for an F1 session on Friday.

Besides Red Bull Racing, AlphaTauri were also very productive: the team of Nyck de Vries and Yuki Tsunoda set the most laps on Friday. On the final day of the winter test, De Vries will take charge of the afternoon session, while Tsunoda will take to the track in the morning session.

Mercedes will be hoping for a trouble-free third day, after George Russell was forced to stop his W14 on Friday afternoon. Before that, however, the day also did not go well for the German team, which struggled to find the right balance in changing conditions.
