2024 Bahrain F1 test: Leclerc top as morning session cut short

The second morning of Formula 1 pre-season testing in Bahrain has been ended prematurely after a loose drain cover caused red flags to fly shortly after the two hour mark.

Charles Leclerc ended the Thursday morning session at the top of the pile with a 1m31.750s set on C3 tyres in the limited running.

But as drivers were beginning to settle into their long runs, the red flags were shown as Leclerc’s Ferrari dislodged a drain cover on the run to Turn 11, before the debris was stuck by both the Ferrari driver and Lewis Hamilton.
