Max Verstappen began his title defence when leaving the garage for a full day of running on Wednesday as Red Bull revealed the true RB18 for the first time.

The Dutchman was joined on track by George Russell in the Mercedes W13 in the morning session with Lewis Hamilton scheduled to take over driving duties in the afternoon.
