Anthony Davidson took over the driving duties for the SUPER
AGURI F1 TEAM on the final day of its test at the Circuito
de Jerez in southern Spain.
Anthony spent the morning completing engine mapping work
whilst also practicing race starts. He continued with set-up
work in the afternoon and completed a total of 78 laps for
the day.
The SA07 ran reliably and with out any issues for the duration
of the three-day test.
James Rossiter
“It was a very good week in Jerez. For the two days
that I was driving we worked on car set-up for Magny-Cours
and to further our understanding of the Bridgestone tyres.
The car balance was good and the longer runs went well. We
also worked on optimising traction control with the Bridgestone
engineers.”
Anthony Davidson
“We have had perfect weather for testing and it was
good to be back at the Jerez circuit again as I have not driven
here for a while. I could feel the improvement made on the
car since the winter, which is always positive. Today we worked
mainly on traction control and some set-up work to give us
better performance on long runs. I am happy with the work
achieved today and am looking forward to the French Grand
Prix next week.”
Graham Taylor, Sporting Director
“We have had a good three days with the both drivers
able to complete their workloads and, as always, we concentrated
on ‘quality not quantity’ with the car running
reliably. The lovely Spanish weather allowed for progress
to be made with both the Honda power-train and Bridgestone
Potenza tyres.”
