20:29 And thankfully it was over! Here's our report from today's testing:

F1 testing: Red Bull's Daniel Ricciardo top, McLaren loses time

Daniel Ricciardo set the fastest ever time around the Barcelona Formula 1 circuit on the second day of the final Formula 1 pre-season test, as McLaren missed most of the running

20:16 Hopefully when that quintet comes back round they'll filter into the pitlane and this is over.

20:15 Everyone's away! And this is officially getting a bit repetitive.

20:14 Bottas and Grosjean make up the front row. Raikkonen and Sirotkin occupy the second row. Alonso looking to get the jump from fifth.

20:14 They're coming back round again.

20:12 Alonso better hurry back round. His media session is in just over two minutes.

20:12 And they're away!

20:12 As did Raikkonen.

20:11 Alonso's joined them on the grid too.

20:11

20:11 Bottas, Grosjean and Sirotkin line up at the start.

20:09 "Standing start", race control declares.

20:09 Raikkonen's popped out in the Ferrari again.

20:09 There's Alonso, too, in the McLaren.

20:08 Bottas, Grosjean and Sirotkin head out. Hartley too.

20:08 Of course. Green flag...

20:08 Well it's now 6.08pm and still in a red flag situation.

20:06 Pit lane open at 6.08pm...

20:06 There are thick black lines heading off the circuit on the exit of Turn 12 to the gravel where Leclerc's Sauber came to a stop.

20:05 And now the truck heads back to the pits with a Sauber onboard.

20:04 Leclerc's Sauber is still being recovered. It's on the back of a truck now.

20:02

Leclerc has caused the latest red flag

20:01 The timing system just states a red flag situation for now.

20:01 So Renault has clocked up 190 laps between its two drivers today - cumulatively that's just eight laps shy of three Spanish Grand Prix distances.

20:01 We're not going to declare the action definitely over until race control tells us they aren't extending the day by five minutes or sending the cars out for a practice start or something.

19:57 Either way, that's the session surely over. Four minutes left on the clock and Leclerc's Sauber is firmly beached in the gravel at Turn 12.

19:56 We think - by the way - Hartley's improvement there was on hypersofts.

19:55 Red flag! Leclerc is in the gravel.

19:54 We may be into the final 10 minutes, but that's not putting off Hartley. A 1m19.823s puts him fifth - one place, incidentally, ahead of Alonso.

19:54

Alonso on track with under 10 minutes to go

19:51

19:51 Alonso meanwhile has finally cracked 50 - five more than Raikkonen, but the Finn has only been driving the Ferrari in the afternoon.

19:51 Ricciardo still getting the laps in between pitstop practice, he's up to 164. Hulkenberg now just a lap shy of a century, giving Renault a very impressive total of 187 for the day.

19:48 Just the six hours and 37 minutes we've had to wait for another glimpse of that McLaren.

19:48 Hartley snuck in another improvement there, a 1m20.257s, but he remains ninth.

19:47 Stop the presses! Alonso is out in the McLaren with 13 minutes left...
