Game too third day of testing in Bahrain. turn during the 3 test day 2024 session in Bahrain they are: Sainz, Perez, Magnussen, Stroll, Hamilton, Albon, Ricciardo, Bottas, Ocon, Norris.
The first phase of the morning
THEStroll's Aston Martin starts first, loaded with rakes behind the front wheels to collect aerodynamic data. Behind him they leave Kevin Magnussen e Lando Norris, which is removed from Carlos Sainz on the left, as Leclerc did yesterday on Sainz. Norris stops and starts again. He also takes to the track Perez, Whose RB20 it is equipped with rakes underneath, in the central part of the diffuser, where other important air flows pass. After ten minutes Sergio Perez returns to the pits: the first ten minutes of this test session in Bahrain therefore went smoothly.
La Ferrari a little more powerful by Sainz – compared to last year – marks a 1:32'737″, a good time, but on a tire C4 (soft) a little tired. TO observe it from the box he is particularly attentive father Carlos Sainz senior. The world rally champion is looking for the best possible seat for her son, and it seems that the fate of the latter is also linked to that of Alonso and perhaps to the balance of Red Bull. So Carlos reduces his further temporary best lap at 1:31'247″, which is also the best time of the entire grid, for the moment.
Tests in Bahrain: new problems with the manhole
Also on the Hamilton's Mercedes are noted rakes, but in yet another area, before the rear wheels. Between little, however, these rakes they will be removed da all cars. In fact, during the 3 test day 2024 session in Bahrain theyet another curious episode from the previous day.
Lo same manhole as yesterday caused the session to be interrupted and Leclerc's bottom damaged again uncovered and the commissioners therefore presented Red flag. It was what hit him Perez, but this time it did no harm to any machine. There RB20 it is immediately promptly verified da Newey in person. The British engineer he lay down under the car, as can be seen in the photo, during the work of the mechanics, to check the status of the fund. The third day of testing in Bahrain it therefore began at same way as yesterday. The reboot è estimated for 9,45 Italian (11,45 local) to continue with a continuous session. The 8-hour countdown has already started again at 9,10 am.
Test in Bahrain, resumption of the morning session
The morning session has restarted third day of testing in Bahrain, which will continue up to 17 for make up for lost time for manhole. Stroll improves, takes to the track also Or with. In the meantime, times are rising Sainz, but is carrying out the long runs, with soft rubber C3 (a little harder than the C4). It remains anyway in front of Perez, who remains behind the Spaniard by 2 tenths. The Red Bull and Visa Cash app Racing Bulls they often return to the pits to experiment different arrangements.
Returning to the question of tires, mixes it C4, dear to Sainz, however, will not be used during next week's match. Instead, we will use the C1 (tough), C2 (average) e C3 (soft). The Spaniard carries out some starting tests towards the end of the session, at 11,45.
Problems for the McLaren of Norris, specifically to clutch. Your session ends therefore in advance, at 12,05 pm, for solve problems to his single-seater and for rearrange it for the afternoon, when he runs Piastres.

The fastest lap of the morning remains the one marked by Sainz just before the red flag: 1:31'247″.
