Kevin Magnussen topped the second day of Bahrain Formula 1 testing for McLaren, as Mercedes-engined cars led the way again.
The Dane produced a late flourish on Pirelli’s super-soft tyre to knock Force India’s Nico Hulkenberg from the top spot by a whopping 1.5 seconds and set the fastest time of the week so far.
Fernando Alonso continued Ferrari’s solid start to the test with the third fastest time, racking up nearly 100 laps in the F14 T and splitting the Mercedes-engined hordes with a soft-tyre run in the late stages.
