Mercedes continue to dominate during testing
Mercedes followed up their impressive one-two
finish in Bahrain by dominating Day One of Formula 1’s return to full in-season
testing at Sakhir, with Nico Rosberg setting the pace during his 121 completed
laps. Apart from a one-off test at Mugello in 2012, Formula 1 has had a ban on
full in-season testing outside of race weekends since the end of the 2008
season, but those rules have been changed to allow four two-day testing runs
throughout this season.
Bahrain is the first venue to host the in-season
testing and it was little surprise to see Mercedes continue their stunning
start to the season that sees them favourites with Betfair to dominate F1 this
season. Following on from his thrilling second place finish on the Sunday
behind team-mate Lewis Hamilton, in a race that had Betfair fans to-ing and
fro-ing throughout the race, it was Nico Rosberg that set the pace with a lap
of 1:35.697 on a track Mercedes have looked comfortable on all weekend.
Force India, who had an encouraging and deserved
third and fifth finish in Bahrain, were Mercedes’ closest challengers again on
the track at Sakhir, with Nico Hulkenberg coming in ahead of Ferrari's Fernando Alonso
and McLaren Kevin Magnussen in an 11-car line-up on the first of the two days
of testing in Bahrain.
After a fairly dismal opening three races of the
season, this testing comes at a particularly good time for Ferrari. Alonso and
Kimi Raikkonen struggled to disappointing ninth and tenth place finishes in
Bahrain – despite both being tipped by Betfair punters to be challenging much higher up the grid.
