new car. Robert Kubica was at the wheel of the F1.08 working
on the mechanical and aerodynamic set-up of the car. In addition,
he did numerous systems checks and tested different suspension
parts. Both cars ran reliably all day.

will continue driving the F1.08 while Nick Heidfeld will again
be at the wheel of the F1.07B
