Here's all you need to know about pre-season testing this week 👇 F1
Just over three months after Formula 1’s last group outing, the drivers will hit the track at the Bahrain International Circuit on Thursday for the start of a three-day pre-season outing.This season, the second with the new generation of ground effect aerodynamic cars, the teams have been limited to just three days of pre-season running.
The teams will be in action at the 5.412-kilometre Bahrain International Circuit in Sakhir from Thursday morning through to Saturday evening where the aim of the game is quite simply to eradicate all niggles, perfect the car’s set-up, and find a spot of speed. Simple, isn’t it? An unreliable car means the team goes into the season-opening race often with a lot of question marks and they have to spend the first few races trying to understand what’s going on.
That’s because teams often sandbag, the term used for downplaying the pace of the car. They may eventually turn up the engine and put minimal fuel in the car on the final day, or they may opt not to if they’re confident enough in the car to surprise their rivals come the first qualifying of the season.Reliability and porpoising will be the two key points this season as the teams hope to have the first and not the second.
