SUPER AGURI F1 TEAM concluded its three-day test at the
Bahrain International Circuit in Sakhir today. With this being
his final track day prior to his first Grand Prix with SUPER
AGURI F1 TEAM, Anthony's test programme focused on build-up
scenarios with Melbourne in mind. A qualifying run, grid simulation
and race run were all successfully orchestrated.
Anthony Davidson“It has been a positive
test for the team and we have continued to learn about the
new Bridgestone Potenza tyres. It was interesting having two
different compounds here and we found good car balance with
both types. I feel that we have been competitive with our
lap times, especially on the longer runs, and with the reliability
of the car. As the track grip improved it seemed to suit the
car more and more, and this gives me a good indication of
rubber levels that we will see over the race weekend.”
Graham Taylor, Sporting Director"We
wanted to ensure that Anthony ran a good number of laps during
his final test before the season opening Grand Prix in Australia.
This was achieved and he seems happy with the balance of the
car and his testing so far.”
