AlphaTauri has become the fourth team to announce what the lineup looks like for the winter test in Bahrain. As in Barcelona, Yuki Tsunoda and Pierre Gasly will have a full and half day.

From March 10 to 12 is the winter test in Bahrain. After the so-called 'shakedown' in Barcelona, the official season opening will take place in Bahrain. Again there are three test days, where fans and film crews are now allowed to be present. Because of this there is live footage available of this test.

Testing in Bahrain

AlphaTauri was the fourth team to announce the line-up for the test days in Bahrain. Gasly will be responsible for the first day and Tsunoda will be in action on Friday. The third and final day will be split between the two men. The Frenchman will arrive at the Bahrain International Circuit on Saturday morning, followed by Tsunoda in the afternoon to conclude the test.

The test week in Bahrain is the last chance for the Formula 1 teams to prepare optimally for the season. After the three test days, the teams have another week to get ready for the first Grand Prix of the season, which is also held in Bahrain.
