Carlos Sainz set the pace on the second day of pre-season testing, but it was McLaren and Lando Norris who grabbed all the headlines.
McLaren demonstrated exceptional long run pace, putting the Woking-based team's rivals on high alert.
However, the final day of pre-season testing could paint a very different picture, with Max Verstappen in for Red Bull across both the morning and afternoon sessions.
Cars will be on-track between 10:00-14:00 and 15:00-19:00 local time, with this being 07:00-11:00 - 12:00-16:00 in the UK, which is three hours behind Bahrain.
