With the end of Day 2 of testing, lights finally go down on the 2018 Formula 1 season.
Charles Leclerc tested the Ferrari as its official driver for the first time, scoring a lap time of 1.36.450s wearing Compound 5. Once again, the Toro Rosso has been the busiest on track, with Daniil Kvyat (who is, once again, behind the wheel of the Faenza team's car) who completed 155 laps.
Pirelli will now analyze all the datas collected during these winter tests to announce, then, which compounds will be available for the first Grand Prix of the 2019 season.
With the following standings the 2018 season ends. There are just 106 days before the Austrialian GP weekend officially starts.
