The second session on the opening day of 2025 Formula 1 pre-season testing has been suspended due to a power cut at the Bahrain International Circuit.
The issue struck just past 5pm local time, with just under two hours remaining.
Floodlights around the track went out as dusk descended, with power lost in the pitlane and in paddock buildings too.
It is not yet clear what caused the failure or how long it might take to restore power.
Bahrain circuit officials are currently investigating the issue, but F1 initially had no official comment to make on the cause of the problem.
