The first practice session is over for the Sakhir GP in the desert of Bahrain. George Russell topped the session, leaving Max Verstappen, Alexander Albon and even Valtteri Bottas behind him.
Results first free practice GP Sakhir
Russell made a big impression during the first free practice in Sakhir. Of course it was only the first free practice, but Bottas will be left scratching his head as he was slower than the man who is yet to score an F1 point.
Max Verstappen and Alexander Albon stayed pretty close to the Mercedes duo and especially Albon did well again in terms of speed. However, just like last week, the Thai spun again. The Red Bull driver will have to stay calm in order to get the results for the team.
