Red Bull’s Perez leads final day of F1 testing, Hamilton 2nd

Associated Press  

SAKHIR, Bahrain — Red Bull driver Sergio Perez moved up the leaderboard as the sun went down to lead the third and final day of Formula One testing on Saturday. “A very successful end to the test with another day of uninterrupted running,” Red Bull head of race engineering Gianpiero Lambiase said. “We don’t know where we will be next week, but we will stay positive.” Alfa Romeo’s Valtteri Bottas was.52 behind Perez in third ahead of Ferrari drivers Charles Leclerc — who led after the morning session — and Carlos Sainz Jr. “It’s a private matter.” There was a brief red flag minutes into the morning start after some debris was cleared off the track, seemingly from Perez’s RB19.
