Test kilometres today: 354 km (80 laps)
Fastest lap: 1:18.675 min (lap 60)
Programme: In the morning the track was still wet, and that’s why the team started the programme later than scheduled.
Nick evaluated Michelin tyre options for Bahrain, but in the afternoon experienced a technical problem, which forced him to return to the pits and cost him some time. He was able to continue, but the team still need to analyse the data to identify the exact reason.
