Barcelona Day 1: Nasr tops morning times

Felipe Nasr led time sheets the first morning of F1 testing at the Circuit de Catalunya with the fastest time of 1min 27.307secs to lead at the lunch break.

He was just five hundredths quicker than Daniel Ricciardo, who made up for missing much of the morning in the pit lane by proving quick when he did eventually emerge in the Red Bull. The Australian has completed just 18 laps to Nasr's 56.

Lewis Hamilton brought his day to an end after just 11 laps when was too ill to continue in the Mercedes. He will be replaced by Mercedes test driver Pascal Wehrlein this afternoon.
