Programme:
During the three-day Barcelona test the BMW Sauber F1 Team
is focusing on testing the new standard ECU which will be
mandatory in all F1 cars in 2008. This includes driving without
traction control, set-up work and system programming. Apart
from some teething problems with the new electronics and several
red flags, it was a productive day. What comes next: Robert
and Nick will continue to drive on Wednesday and Thursday
and work together with the engineers on gaining experience
with the standard ECU
