ANALYSIS: How do McLaren, Haas and AlphaTauri stack up after pre-season testing in Bahrain?

The final day of testing, at Bahrain on Saturday, did nothing to change the impression given in the preceding two days that Red Bull look set to begin 2023 just as strongly as they finished 2022.

Ferrari and Aston Martin looked very evenly matched for pace as the next fastest after Red Bull, with Mercedes trailing just behind them by Saturday.
