Mercedes driver,
George Russell topped the timing sheets on the final day of action in Bahrain with
Max Verstappen close behind and
Alexander Albon in P3.
Behind the surprising Albon, who confirmed the pace Sainz showed on Thursday,
Oscar Piastri took P4 after missing out on a lap that was certainly good enough to put him comfortably at the top. Behind the
McLaren driver, Alpine's
Pierre Gasly rounded off the top 5.
