Mercedes F1 left feeling 'disappointed' after electric issue ends day early
Mercedes got most of the attention during Thursday's F1 testing day because of an innovative steering wheel which moved forwards and backwards. Some of the attention from this was switched to their early finish after Valtteri Bottas experienced electrical issues in the final hour of testing.
