Test result: 9th Best laptime: 1m32.549s (Logan Sargeant) Laps completed:439 The Williams looked to be a good, solid platform for the season to come. But it’s no surprise to see a car produced by a team that recently shed its technical director and head of aero being a little deficient in terms of downforce and therefore pace. But the fact the car ...
Test result: 8th Best laptime: 1m32.160s (Lando Norris) Laps completed:312 McLaren is the least-prepared team after testing, completing comfortably the fewest laps and with what appears to be one of the weaker cars in terms of both pace and on-track poise. Part of this was to be expected given McLaren’s downbeat tone and the public acceptance that ...
Test result: 5th Best laptime: 1m31.261s (Yuki Tsunoda) Laps completed:456 AlphaTauri’s pace looked troubling until Yuki Tsunoda banged in a quick lap on the final evening using the grip of the C4 Pirellis. We have to be careful not to be swayed too much by what could have been a deceptive low-fuel run and AlphaTauri is probably at the back of the ...
Test result: 6th Best laptime: 1m31.381s (Kevin Magnussen) Laps completed:415 The best way to justify Haas’s position in this list is that despite being the sixth-fastest team in testing, we think Alpine will move ahead, and Haas just seemed profoundly seventh. It has all the signs of being a very dependable midfielder. Reliability looked good, the...
Test result: 3rd Best laptime: 1m30.827s (Valtteri Bottas) Laps completed:402 It would surprise us greatly if Alfa Romeo replicates its testing result next week but we’re reluctant to bump it down too many places. There were positive signs trackside and the drivers seem very happy with the progress made after a big technical effort over the winter....
Test result: 10th Best laptime: 1m32.762s (Pierre Gasly) Laps completed:353 Why would we put the slowest team in testing bang in the middle of the pack? Great question. And it has a simple answer. Alpine is the most out-of-position team from testing and we are convinced it is holding quite a lot back. Pierre Gasly and Esteban Ocon never looked like...
Test result: 3rd Best laptime: 1m30.664s (Lewis Hamilton) Laps completed:398 Mercedes can only be judged based on the three days of running in Bahrain, which suggests it’s behind Aston Martin in terms of preparedness and long-run pace. It started out on day one with genuine optimism, which turned to confusion on day two and then settled with the ca...
Test result: 7th Best laptime: 1m31.450s (Fernando Alonso) Laps completed:387 Agonising over how high to put Aston Martin is not something we’ve had to do… at all, really, in the last two years. But there is no escaping the excitement around what this team might be capable of this season. We’re not saying Aston Martin will beat Mercedes next week b...
Test result: 4th Best laptime 1m31.024s (Charles Leclerc) Laps completed:417 Slotting Ferrari into second is one of the easiest choices in this ranking. It does not look like it has the measure of Red Bull, despite some latent optimism within the team, but nor does it look super vulnerable to Mercedes or even Aston Martin. Ferrari is closer over on...
Test result: 1st Best laptime: 1m30.305s (Sergio Perez) Laps completed:413 Red Bull produced as ‘dominant’ a performance as it’s possible to in testing. The Red Bull RB19 looked comfortably the best car on track, the team is upbeat and it has a clear pace advantage over one-lap and over long-runs. If it has any vulnerabilities, Red Bull kept them w...
