Ferrari and Alonso close the tests with a promising race pace. The grate of a sinkhole in Turn 11 once again affected, for the second consecutive day, the preseason tests in Sakhir.
The work to seal the sewer was delayed for 75 minutes and the FIA had to eliminate the one-hour break between the morning and afternoon sessions. Charles Leclerc brought the hope to Ferrari with the best time on Friday (1:30.322) and a great pace in the long runs, although behind Red Bull.
