Third and final day of testing this week for Scuderia Ferrari
Marlboro, working again at the Catalunya Circuit, near Barcelona.
The main item on today’s agenda for both drivers –
Luca Badoer and Felipe Massa - was a simulation of a race
weekend, starting with the third free practice session, followed
by the three qualifying sessions and the Grand Prix, along
with all the relevant trackside procedures.
Felipe successfully completed the simulation, however Luca
had to stop while in the final stint of the race, because
of an oil leak. The summary of the day in figures is as follows:
95 laps for Felipe, (best time 1.20.508) and 75 for Luca (1.21.808.)
The Scuderia resumes testing, this coming Monday 25th February,
when Kimi Raikkonen and Michael Schumacher will take to the
track at the Catalunya Circuit for the first of three days
of a test session, that brings to a close the preparations
for the forthcoming season
