World champions Red Bull endured another frustrating pre-season testing session after last month’s Jerez ordeal at Bahrain’s Sakhir circuit on Wednesday behind Force India’s Nico Hulkenberg.
Sebastian Vettel’s all-conquering team missed out on the first five hours of the opening day of the second series of testing before the 2014 season begins in Melbourne on March 16.
When the German world champion finally got their RB10 out on the circuit it lasted only 14 laps, his session brought to a premature end with an unspecified breakdown.
