Friday, March 1 at 1:26 p.m
“It wasn't bad, I think it's very close,” Verstappen, 26, said after yesterday's training. “Maybe some of the cars around us have already boosted the engine a little to achieve a higher top speed. We have to focus on ourselves. Today there were some small problems with the front and rear balance, but nothing earth-shattering. We have to find the 'sweet spot'. You just have to find it.” “On the car. Especially here with the heavy asphalt. Once you find that sweet spot, make up your lap time. That's what we'll focus on tomorrow. It's not far.”
Friday, March 1 at 1:17 p.m
Results of the second training yesterday. According to Verstappen, there is nothing to worry about as other teams have already significantly boosted their engines. But is this also true? Or has Mercedes already found plenty of speed?
Friday, March 1 at 1:04 p.m
At 1.30pm we start again in Bahrain with the last free practice before qualifying. The big question is how much Max Verstappen and Red Bull Racing can significantly close the gap on the fast Mercedes drivers.
