Red Bull confirms driver schedule for final F1 test
Red Bull has confirmed its driver running schedule for the final Formula 1 pre-season test session in Barcelona this week as Daniel Ricciardo and Max Verstappen get their final outings ahead of the opening race of the year.
Red Bull gave its new RB14 car its first extended test run last week in Barcelona, but lost time throughout the test due to a mixture of reliability issues and inclement weather conditions to ultimately rank as the third-lowest team for mileage.
