What's Happened So Far At Pre-testing?

What's happened so far at pre-testing?

Pre-testing can be pretty boring to watch, but luckily for me I was studying so I had it on as background noise the whole time. So here are some notable moments since testing week is over:

Albon stops on track

Alex Albon's Williams stopped on track on the first day of testing, bringing out a yellow flag (but not a red one! because he stopped on a safe side of the track). Luckily for all Williams' fans (yeah all four of us) it was an issue with the fuel pump and was resolved.

Leclerc hits drain cover, testing suspended

Leclerc's bad luck streak continues after he hits a loose drain on the track, and Day 2's morning testing is discontinued with an hour left to go. Hamilton's Mercedes also hit the drain cover, hence the photo.

George Russel pose 'filmed for everyone'

Alex Albon makes an appearance in the commentary box on night 2! He gave us valuable insight, like how apparently everyone was filmed doing the "George Russell pose" and they just went with George....poor guy. On the other hand, I think Alex would be a wonderful commentator and should absolutely try after he retires (which, hopefully, is no time soon)

The drivers started racing each other??

The end of night 2 saw the first 'lights out and away we go' of the season, with all the cars lining up for a practice start. Leclerc went first, Russel second and Zhou Guanyu third (!!!!)

And that's it!! My highlights of the f1 pre-testing week :)
