F1 is still in Bahrain for the final pre-season test ahead of the 2026 campaign getting underway in early March with the Australian Grand Prix.

The second three-day test at Bahrain International Circuit takes place between Wednesday, 18th – Friday, 20th February, with teams facing no restrictions on when they can run across the test.

On-track action starts at 10:00 local time on Wednesday, 18th, and runs through until 19:00 local, with a one-hour mandatory break for lunch between 14:00 – 15:00 local. 

Again, all 11 teams will be present in Bahrain for the test, with Aston Martin hoping for a better week than last, and the top four teams still fighting it out to not be perceived as the package to beat this year.

TV coverage will no longer be restricted to only the final hour of running each day, so the eight hours of running each day will be fully televised, with RacingNews365 set to be on-site in Sakhir for all the latest news and reaction to the day’s events, as well as the latest technical secrets from the teams!
