With just 30 minutes left on the clock, Max Verstappen had a spin in the final corner of the Bahrain International Circuit. The Red Bull Racing driver lost control of the RB16 briefly, but soon the Limburger had his car under control again.
With a perfect '360', Verstappen could continue on his way. The set of tyres were ruined however: "Ah, lovely. I think the tires are flat-spotted," Verstappen told his engineer Gianpiero Lambiase about the radio.
