Hey F1's fans! Today we had the first day of testing before the begining of the season! 

The 20 best drivers of the world, had their first encounter with what will be their cars for this season! This test session took place in Bahrein, more specifically in Sakhir International Circuit, where the first race will occur.

Every team took advantage of this tests in order to learn more about the feeling of the car while is driven! So they tried to do as many laps as they could.

Morning Results

During the morning, we've seen a very fast Red Bull, driven by Max Verstappen, who had some issues at the begining because he wasn't confortable with his new car. The car had some inestabilities, vibrations and slide more than it should.

He was followed by Charles Leclerc in the new SF 24 and Fernando Alonso.

During this session we've had some interesting moments, like when Ocon had some oversteer in curve 4 and slide! Also Alex Albon had some problems with the new FW 46, when leaving curve 2, the car started to lose power and 20 minutes before the end of the session the car stopped and never restarted!
