Overcast, occasional rain.
Fourth and final day of testing this week for Scuderia Ferrari
Marlboro, working again today at the Vallelunga circuit, north
of Rome, with Felipe Massa and Kimi Raikkonen. Although the
rain finally moved on from the Roman circuit today, it had
stayed for a long time in the morning, when Felipe had only
done a few laps, interrupted by an off-track excursion on
the still damp track. After completing an installation lap
this morning, Kimi was back behind the wheel at one to continue
with his familiarisation process with the car. In the afternoon,
once the F2007 had been repaired, Felipe resumed development
work on the new car, but a technical problem caused a further
and final interruption to the session for the Brazilian driver.
The day in figures is as follows: nine laps for Felipe (best
time 1.22.279,) 52 for Kimi (1.19.758.)
The Scuderia will resume testing on 30th January, at Valencia’s
“Ricardo Tormo” circuit: on track will be Kimi
Raikkonen and Luca Badoer.
