The entire day was dry so the team was able to get in a full
day’s testing. In the morning Jacques finished off some
worked started on Wednesday, and concentrated on aero and
set up work. In the afternoon he did a tyre casing programme
for Michelin with the results applicable to the forthcoming
races. Nick on his first day did some start practice and minimal
aero and set-up work in the morning. He then spent the entire
afternoon on a tyre programme for Michelin.
What comes next:
For the final day of the test tomorrow Jacques Villeneuve
will be replaced by Robert Kubica. The team has been happy
with the results of the programme to date. The final day should
see the completion of this and includes work for next week’s
British Grand Prix.
