Dominic Harlow, Chief Race and Test Engineer:
"Christijan completed an impressive 99 laps in very warm
conditions today. With this, the last chance for a true circuit
test before the August testing embargo, we ran a comprehensive
tyre study, checked some aero developments that arrived at
the test at the last minute, and further suspension developments.
We are satisfied with the results of our three-day programme
here, having covered nearly all the items on what was quite
a long test list."
Christijan Albers: "It was another
good test day for us. We concentrated on tyres in the morning
but the track lost a lot of grip in the afternoon when it
became very hot. The suspension development is coming along
quite well and I think we gathered some useful data for the
coming races."
