Programme:
Before Robert Kubica went out for his first run of the day
members of the team stood in front of his car in the garage
and sang Happy Birthday, as this was his 23rd birthday. For
his third day of testing his programme included more running
on the 2009 spec Bridgestone slick tyres, set-up work for
the 2008 electronics and also some interesting development
on the mechanical side. After being in the car for the first
time on Tuesday afternoon, Estonia’s Marko Asmer was
back for a full day. The team gave him set-up work, which
produced some positive feed back. The test team finished its
tyre and mileage allocation for the season and over the four
days in Jerez completed 3,425 kilometres.
What comes next:
That is the final day of the final test for 2007. The team
will launch its 2008 car, the BMW Sauber F1.08, at BMW Welt
in Munich on the 14th January, while the roll-out of the car
will be the next day in Valencia.
