Magnussen puts McLaren on top on day two in Bahrain

Kevin Magnussen topped the second day of Bahrain Formula 1 testing for McLaren, as Mercedes-engined cars led the way again.

Magnussen produced his fast lap using Pirelli's supersoft tire to knock Force India's Nico Hulkenberg from the top spot by a whopping 1.5 seconds and set the fastest time of the week so far.

Fernando Alonso continued Ferrari's solid start to the test with the third fastest time, racking up nearly 100 laps in the F14T and splitting the Mercedes-engined cars.

Finally World champion Sebastian Vettel completed a decent number of laps – 59, but was 5 seconds off the pace.
