Williams, Alpine complete F1 2024 shakedown package in Bahrain

Williams, Alpine completed the F1 2024 shakedown package as they are the last two outfits to hit the track in Bahrain.

After the eight F1 teams had their shakedown spread out between launch and pre-season testing, Williams and Alpine completed the package with their first running in Bahrain just a day ahead of the official pre-season running at the same venue.

Both the teams kept it until last two complete their shakedown when few of the other teams undertook two of it. Williams had Logan Sargeant in action as they showcased their FW46 for the first time in flesh after presenting renders on a showcar.

Alpine, meanwhile, ran both Pierre Gasly and Esteban Ocon in their first A524 drive in flesh. The Bahrain circuit was busy with Mercedes undertaking its second filming run after its first in Silverstone. Both George Russell and Lewis Hamilton were in action.
