For both drivers and their engineers this was a positive
day with track conditions very similar to those experienced
yesterday. In the morning Nick briefly did some aero work
and then in the afternoon did both set-up and tyre work. Jacques,
on his first of two days at the test, did aero and set up
work and also tyre evaluation work for Michelin for the Barcelona
race.
What comes next:
Nick Heidfeld has now left the test and so Robert Kubica will
take over again in chassis 07, having driven chassis 06 on
Wednesday. Both Robert and Jacques Villeneuve will continue
a varied testing schedule, with the team working toward both
the first European race at Imola, a week this weekend, and
the race here at Barcelona two weeks later.
