Zhou Guanyu finished on the top of the timesheets on Friday evening in Bahrain pre-season testing.<\/p>\n
During the session, Mercedes brought out a red flag as George Russell’s W14 ground to a halt with a problem.<\/p>\n
In the morning Carlos Sainz set the early benchmark on the C3 tyres of 1.32.486m. In the afternoon, though, Max Verstappen emerged in the afternoon and set a faster time just 30 minutes into the practice.<\/p>\n
Under the lights, Zhou eclipsed the Dutchman’s time by 0.040s when he equipped the soft compound and rounded the circuit in 1.31.610m.<\/p>\n
Mercedes hit trouble just before the sun set, when George Russell stopped on track with a hydraulic issue. Earlier his teammate Lewis Hamilton faced a floor damage, which was quickly taken care of.<\/p>\n
Fernando Alonso managed more than 130 laps and finished third overall for Aston Martin, ahead of AlphaTauri’s Nyck de Vries in P4 and Haas’s Nico Hulkenberg, fifth.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
