The final test of the 2011 Formula One pre-season in Barcelona has been delayed until March 9.
Bahrain, which had been scheduled to host the opening grand prix of the year, was initially pencilled in as the home of the final testing session. However, due to political unrest, the Sakhir event was withdrawn at the start of the week.
As a result, all teams will complete their preparations in Barcelona, with original testing dates set for March 8 to March 11.
Those dates will now be put back by 24 hours, meaning testing will take place between March 9 and March 12.
The F1 season officially commences on March 25, beginning with the Australian Grand Prix.

Emirates boss insists he did nothing illegal in taking Jon Toral from the Nou Camp.
next fantastic game
Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has insisted that there has been nothing wrong in signing youngster Jon Toral from Barcelona.
Barca president Sandro Rosell described the Gunners’ approach for the 16-year-old prodigy as “a little immoral” in the Spanish press, with Toral set to follow in the footsteps of current Arsenal skipper Cesc Fabregas.
Reports back in Spain have suggested that Arsenal paid almost £300,000 for the player, who was free to sign with any professional club.
Despite Rosell’s protests against the move, Wenger claimed that their moves for players had been no different to the ones made for the likes of Fran Merida and Ignasi Miguel in the past.
“You forget that this boy is English. He has an English passport, his mother is from England and hopefully he will join us in the summer,” Wenger said.
“We have players who leave us for other professional clubs in England.
“We have done what just is legal.
“I love Barcelona, I love Catalonia – I have nothing against them, but when a player who is half English and Spanish wants to join us, why should we turn him down if it’s all legal?
“If we have done something illegal, I will say ‘sorry, my boy, we cannot do it’.
“Plenty of players leave us under exactly the same rule.”
Regarding Rosell’s comments, Wenger preferred to avoid a confrontation with the Catalan businessman.
“I do not want to go further on that front because it is very difficult,” he added.
“If you go in the academy of Barcelona and you look where all the players come from, come back to me and we can talk about it.”

Why do Barcelona make such a pathetic attempt to cause controversy over this very straight forward deal?
The basic facts are that Toral wanted to leave Barcelona, as he has family in England and wanted to get first-team experience.
He has not signed a professional contract at the Nou Camp and is free to go where he chooses.
As Wenger says Arsenal did nothing illegal.
There are moral issues, but at 16-years-old Toral can vote, so he can choose where he wants to play his football.
Barcelona putting Lionel Messi and Andres Iniesta on their books when they were pre-teens is more disturbing.
The real reason Barcelona are causing a stir is the fact they are 2-1 down to the Gunners with the second leg in two weeks.
Rossell would love to see Catalan fans booing the Gunners that little bit more, especially after last summers attempt to re-sign Cesc Fabregas.
The truth is Barcelona are not as upset at losing Toral as they were with Fabregas to Arsenal and Gerard Pique to Manchester United.
Coaches at the La Masia have likened Toral’s ability more with Fran Merida than Fabregas.
Barcelona are more upset with the Spanish government for not tightening the laws surrounding the signing of youth players than with Arsenal.
