Published October 2, 2026 · Updated October 2, 2026 · Motorsport.com

Max Verstappen topped the long run times in F1 Bahrain GP second practice, running medium tyres for Red Bull.

Max Verstappen emerged as the fastest driver in the long runs during the second free practice session for the Formula 1 Bahrain Grand Prix. The Red Bull driver was running on medium tyres and, after adjusting for the different stint lengths and tyre compounds, came out ahead of the competition.

George Russell in the Mercedes was second, just 0.19s behind Verstappen, with Ferrari's Charles Leclerc third at 0.32s. These long run times suggest Verstappen could be the favorite for the upcoming Malaysian Grand Prix. umafrika.club
