It was Sergio Perez who set the pace for the second consecutive day, as Ferrari and Red Bull showed signs of significant improvement during the final pre-season Formula 1 test in Bahrain.
The Mexican put himself on the top of the timesheet with his first flying lap and a mid-day improvement meant he remained there for the rest of the session, while most of the teams switched attention to completing long runs.
Fernando Alonso was less than a tenth adrift in the new F14-T Ferrari. He completed an impressive long run for the Scuderia in the afternoon and clocked the most laps of any driver on day two at the Sakhir circuit.
Daniel Ricciardo went third fastest for Red Bull. The Australian’s best lap was less than two tenths slower than Perez’s benchmark and easily the quickest by the RB10 since it landed in Bahrain.
