I am a passionate and knowledgeable Formula 1 fan who has watched the sport since age five, watching every single race. Having karted competitively throughout my teens, I understand what it takes to be a racing driver, and every aspect of motorsports fascinates me. I am now studying sports journalism at the University of Gloucestershire with the hopes of one day landing a dream role in motorsport. As well as English, I speak Spanish fluently after living there for some time when I was younger.
An unprecedented incident has caused pre-season testing to come to a halt at the Bahrain International Circuit. On the pit straight, a large quantity of glass shards had scattered all over the track.
A pane of glass from the race start booth appears to have failed and fallen onto the track. To avoid punctures or other problems, the session was red-flagged so the debris could be cleared. Drivers returned to their garages, and marshals swiftly cleared the track.
