168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Max Verstappen set the pace in the opening F1 practice session for the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix, 0.186s ahead of 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Fernando Alonso.

Red🔴 Bull continued their dominant start to the year as Verstappen headed the ti💮mesheets in FP1.

Like in Bahrain🌜, FP1 - which takes place in 🍃the afternoon - is ultimately unrepresentative of the conditions teams will face in qualifying and the race - which are under the floodlights.

However, Verstappen was the driver to beat in first practice with a 1m2ꦓ9.659s 𒈔his best time.

Alonso put his Aston Martin inside the top two with ᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚan𒆙 impressive time, although based on the first race, it’s unlikely the Spaniard will be able to maintain it come race day.

Sergio Perez comple💝ted the top three in the second Red Bull, 0.209s off Verstappen’s top ti🐲me.

Perez claimed his ▨maiden pole position back in 2022 in Jeജddah, while he took the race victory last year ahead of Verstappen.

It wasn't an entirely smooth ses💫sion for Stroll, who brওushed the wall at Turn 22 with his front-left tyre.

Valtteri ༺Bottas was just outside of the top 10 in the lead Sauber, 1.1s off the pace.

Daniel Ricciardo set his best time on the mediums, and didn’t run on the red-marked soft, as he set the 12th fastest time ahead of Este💮ban Ocon, Logan ♊Sagreant and Oscar Piastri.

It wasﷺ the same for Yuki Tsunoda, who didn’t run on the softs as h𓆉e ended up 16th overall.

Pierre Gasly, Zhou Guanyu and the Haas duo of Nico Hulkenberg and Kevin Magnussen cꦇompleted the order.
