SAKHIR, Bahrain (AP) — The afternoon session of Formula 1 preseason testing was briefly interrupted Friday when a shuttle bus drove on the track. In a bizarre scene, a red flag was waved to halt testing as a white bus drove slowly on a runoff area of the track at Bahrain International Circuit.

Up to eight Formula 1 teams were left facing regret on the second day of testing in Bahrain after a nightmare scenario hit Sakhir. All 10 teams are testing for three days at the track ahead of the season opening race at the Australian Grand Prix in March.
