Fernando Alonso put the Ferrari on top of the timesheets ahead of Sebastian Vettel’s Red Bull.

Alonso set a time of 1.33.247 on the softer medium tyres 7 mins before the end of the session, and it proved to be an unbeatable time.

Here are the timesheets for the final practice session in Bahrain.

Alonso had a wild spin out of Turn 2 earlier in the session while he was still on the hard tyre but managed to save himself from the gravel trap and was able to continue.

Sebastian Vettel looked set to beat Alonso’s time in the end and waited til the final seconds of the session before heading out on his medium tyres but he came across some traffic. Though it must be added that his times were already not on par with Alonso’s before he encoutered Pic’s Caterham on the track.

His second timed lap was scruffy and he failed to beat Alonso’s time and came in second, with Mark Webber just behind him.

Lewis Hamilton suffered was seemed like a left rear tyre failure on his slowing-down lap, which looks to have broken his suspension.

Here are the official timesheets for the session.
