Haas have recorded the most laps during the second day of testing. They didn't set the timesheets alight with a 12th and 14th place finish but any reliability question mark seems to have been removed. AlphaTauri and Williams also topped the lap count list. 

Nikita Mazepin and Mick Schumacher recorded 162 laps combined. While the positives sit with Haas, concerns will sit with Aston Martin. Sebastian Vettel only managed to drive 10 laps during his four-hour morning session. 

The four-time World Champion was stuck in the garage with a gearbox problem. He will need to make the most of his final four hours on Sunday. 

Despite looking solid out on the track, McLaren only completed 102 laps. Though reports suggest they are ahead of their pre-season testing schedule. Mercedes caused a red flag this morning when Lewis Hamilton stopped out on the track, hence why their lap count is less than the others.
