But that is not a conclusion that can be drawn solely and securely from events at the Sakhir circuit on Thursday. Red Bull has once again built the fastest ground-effects car and the double world champion has lost nothing of his edge. [ topping the first day of 2023 testing in Bahrain](https://www.autosport.com/f1/news/2023-f1-bahrain-test-verstappen-shades-alonso-to-top-opening-day-of-testing/10435581/) is the headline that Formula 1 probably didn’t want the media to be writing.

Max Verstappen was looking more than satisfied to finish the first day of pre-season testing in Bahrain on top of the timesheets.

There are a lot of races on the calendar where you need different things from the car, so step-by-step.” “It was good," Verstappen said when he stepped out of the cockpit after the chequered flag brought the first day of testing to a close. "But the car is running well, and I think that’s the most important. "It's a bit of an evolution from last year. Compared to last year, there are few regulation changes coming into effect this season meaning that the upgrades on the 2023 cars are fairly minimal. "Indeed, we are more competitive than we were last year to start off."

Outre les ennuis d’Aston Martin en début de séance, la plupart des autres voitures ont paru fiables jeudi.

Drugovich, le champion en titre de F2, a été appelé en renfort chez Aston Martin après que le Québécois Lance Stroll se soit blessé à un poignet lors d’un accident de vélo survenu alors qu’il était à l’entraînement en Espagne.

Red Bull's Max Verstappen ended the first day of 2023 pre-season testing in Bahrain on top of the timesheets ahead of Fernando Alonso.

Rookie driver Logan Sargeant was tenth quickest just ahead of Nico Hulkenberg, returning to the sport this year with Haas. We were able to do the run plan and everything is going well." The most important thing was to do mileage, and we had no issues. After the break he managed to reduce his time by just over a tenth. C3 Verstappen was the only driver to stay in the cockpit all day, meaning that none of the others taking part managed to follow him past the 100 lap milestone.

These were preventative measures, but we thought they were useful to make so we could run safely and reliably for the remainder of the day. There are plenty of positives to take away and we can focus on maximising the potential of the car in the coming days. George Russell: It was great to be back out in the car and get a first real experience of the W14. Hopefully the car continues to run like clockwork, and we can make the most of the remaining track time. Oscar Piastri: “My first morning of testing went pretty smoothly which is a good start to the season. The car was responding well to the changes we made and we will continue to review the data this evening ahead of Fernando’s time in the car tomorrow. “We will have to recover the time we lost over the next two days to ensure we maximise our learnings ahead of the race next week. We had a lot of good running throughout the day when it was hot and sunny and also in the evening which is more representative. We were able to achieve the targets that we had set out and I’m happy with how I felt in the car. The goal for the morning session was focused on reliability through a series of baseline runs with Hulkenberg finishing at the break with 51 laps to his credit. Of course, this is only the opening day of testing, and there is plenty of work ahead for everyone, but it’s been a positive start. The Swiss-based team had a successful first day of official track action, as Zhou Guanyu and Valtteri Bottas put the new C43 to the test at the Bahrain International Circuit.

“Our goal was to be able to race on as many Formula 1 Grand Prix tracks as possible, with circuits that could be a great challenge for the drivers. We will reveal the rest of the dates in due time.” One point for the fastest lap time will be up for grabs in each race, provided the driver finishes within the top 10. Race 2’s grid will be set by reversing the top eight drivers from Qualifying 1, with ninth and below lining up in the positions they qualified in. From there, June 23-25 will see them pay a trip to the historic Zandvoort circuit in the Netherlands. 8th 4

Drugovich, the Formula Two champion, is stepping in for regular Aston Martin driver Lance Stroll after the Canadian hurt his wrist while cycling as part of his fitness training. Verstappen did 157 laps, far more than any other driver and nearly triple the distance of next week’s season-opening Bahrain Grand Prix. The session had barely started when Felipe Drugovich ground to a halt on his first run for Aston Martin with what team principal Mike Krack called an “electric glitch.” The session was red-flagged and Drugovich's car was taken away on a truck under a cover to prevent other teams from taking notes on its design. That rule is meant to cut costs but favors big teams who can do more advanced analysis off the track, Haas driver Kevin Magnussen said. Early indications from Thursday's test indicate that is much less of an issue, Mercedes team principal Toto Wolff said. Verstappen lapped the Bahrain International Circuit nearly .3 seconds faster than Ferrari's Carlos Sainz.
