Preseason Formula One testing continued in Bahrain ahead of the 2023 season. Of the 10 drivers on track in the morning session, Sergio Perez was seventh-fastest for Red Bull -- a contrast to teammate Max Verstappen setting the fastest time the day before -- and Lewis Hamilton eighth for Mercedes.
Red Bull driver Max Verstappen of the Netherlands steers his car during a Formula One pre season test at the Bahrain International Circuit in Sakhir, Bahrain, Thursday, Feb. 23, 2023.Preseason Formula One testing shows who has the speed to win the title and who is already having problems.
Sainz has the fastest time so far over two days of testing. American driver Logan Sargeant, who is joining F1 with Williams, was only .063 seconds adrift with a time set on the softest and fastest tires. Mercedes driver George Russell said the team might not be ready to challenge for wins and titles when the season begins next week with the Bahrain Grand Prix.
Times set in testing offer only a rough guide to a teams' true pace for the season with the cars often set up in very different ways, sometimes with heavy fuel loads to imitate a full race distance. Title contenders may try to hide their actual pace from rivals, while smaller teams may chase publicity by aiming for fast times over a single lap.
