It was Mercedes one-two again after the first day's practice for the F1 Abu Dhabi GP - with Valtteri Bottas just ahead of Lewis Hamilton. Lewis's return to F1 was seamless and he's looking good for another win on the Yas Marina Circuit.

The two Red Bull-Hondas of Max Verstappen and Alex Albon finished third and fourth, ahead of McLaren-Renault's Lando Norris, Renault's Esteban Ocon and Sakhir GP winner, Sergio Perez (Racing Point-Mercedes).

Peter Windsor details the results, looks ahead to qualifying - and pinpoints his highlight of the day.
