After six days of testing, no clear pecking order has emerged, a situation not helped by teams playing down (or up) their chances. However the stats never lie.

Over the course of the Barcelona 'event' and Bahrain 'test', the 23 drivers representing 10 teams completed 20,931 miles (33,684 kms) of running.

Over the course of the two tests, Carlos Sainz (1,399 miles/2,251 kms) completed the most, ahead of George Russell (1,368 miles/2,202 kms) and Pierre Gasly (1,281 miles/2,062 kms).

Of the regular drivers that attended both tests, Mick Schumacher completed the fewest (662 miles/1,066 kms), while Valtteri Bottas only managed 719 miles (1,158 kms) and Nicholas Latifi 928 miles (1,493 kms).

In terms of teams, Ferrari marginally edged out Mercedes, the Italian team completing 2,650 miles of testing (4,264 kms), while the German team manged 2,616 miles (4,210 kms), ahead of AlphaTauri (2,283 miles/3,674 kms) and Red Bull (2,280 miles/3669 kms).

Haas (1,388/2,235 kms) completed the fewest, while Alfa Romeo managed 1,745 miles (2,808 kms) and McLaren 1,896 miles (3,052 kms).

As for power units, Mercedes, which supplies four teams, completed 8,683 miles of running (13,973 kms), while Ferrari, which supplies three teams, completed 5,784 miles (9,308 kms). Between them, the two Honda powered teams managed 4,653 miles (7,344 kms).
