F1 | Libres 3 en Bahréin: Verstappen y Leclerc se alejan demasiado de Carlos Sainz
Últimos entrenamientos libres con cierta ventaja de Red Bull sobre Ferrari, aunque las diferencias son sensiblemente más pequeñas que el año pasado. Verstappen lideró con 96 escasas milésimas sobre Leclerc, si bien el campeón se pasó de frenada con su último juego de blandos y no hizo la vuelta en las condiciones óptimas. Charles, por su parte, tuvo una excursión por la grava sin consecuencias. Checo Pérez se acerca, está a dos décimas de su compañero, pero no termina de llegar un Carlos Sainz descontento al volante del F1-75. Faltan sensaciones, no convence el 'set-up' y se acaba el tiempo antes de la clasificación (16:00 horas CET).
