The second day of testing in Bahrain saw the first red flag of the Formula 1 season. A drain on the kerbstone at turn 11 came loose, which the Monegasque driver then drove over. As a result, the red flag was waved. Meanwhile, while this problem is being resolved, the test clock continues to tick on.
Red flag in Bahrain!
The kerbstone drain was dislodged by Lewis Hamilton. The driver with number 44 on the car, is likely to drive alongside Charles Leclerc at the Italian Scuderia from 2025.
