Friday practice in Bahrain is different compared to most other races on the calendar. Because the Grand Prix is held at night, FP1 is difficult to deconstruct as the conditions alter completely.

Ferrari locked out the front-row here 12 months ago, and after Friday's performance, there doesn't seem to be a reason why the result can't be repeated. Though Vettel had a little moment in FP2!
