Testing at the Barcelona circuit
3rd May 2007
Maranello, 3rd May
Circuit: Circuit de Catalunya – 4.655 km
Driver: Felipe Massa
Car: F2007
Weather: air temperature 12/16 °C, track temperature 14/27
°C. Partially cloudy, rain in the afternoon.
Fourth and final day of testing this week for Scuderia Ferrari
Marlboro, working once again today at the Catalunya Circuit,
near Barcelona.
As happened on Tuesday, rain once again made an appearance
at the Montmelo circuit, complicating matters for those teams
that stayed on for this additional day’s testing. Having
been held up with a technical problem on his car in the morning,
Felipe Massa was unable to get in much dry running, completing
just under thirty laps, concentrating mainly on finding the
best set-up for the F2007. In the afternoon, Felipe ran in
the wet to work on the balance of the car under these track
conditions. In total, 38 laps were completed, the quickest
in a time of 1.21.483.
With this session over, Scuderia Ferrari Marlboro will be
back on track on the 8th May at Fiorano, where Luca Badoer
will carry out the shakedown of the cars that will be used
in the Spanish Grand Prix, scheduled for Sunday 13th May at
the Catalunya circuit.
