Grégoire Saucy was the first to set a representative lap time after running at or near the top of the leader board for most of the three-day test.
Bortoleto was next to take the top sport and held onto his lap of 1:47.417 as teams focused on race simulation runs in the final session before the season begins.
Gabriele Minì was second-fastest by the end of the session, just four-hundredths of a second behind Bortoleto, with Saucy third-fastest.
Aussie rookie Hugh Barter was fifth-fastest, with Christian Mansell 20th and Tommy Smith 29th.
The 2023 FIA Formula 3 season begins 3-5 March at the Bahrain Grand Prix.
