Nico Hulkenberg quickest, but Ferrari finishes opening test on a high

MONTMELO, Spain -- Nico Hulkenberg finished the first test of 2019 at the top of the timesheets but it was Ferrari who can leave with bragging rights after another impressive day at the Circuit de Catalunya.

Hulkenberg's time led the way at the end of the session. The Renault driver set a 1:17.393 on the softest and quickest tyre, known for pre-season as the C5 compound, in the afternoon.
