Location: Circuit de Catalunya
Driver: Jenson Button
Track Length: 4.655km (2.892mi)
Laps: 70
Km covered: 326 (201mi)
Best Laptime: 1m23.633s
Final day of the Barcelona test, and the second day in the cockpit for Jenson.
Despite temperamental weather – it started to spit with rain from first running this morning, meaning Jenson only conducted a single run on slicks – the team completed a full programme and was pleased with progress.
The rain also allowed the team to run Pirelli’s Intermediate and Full Wet compounds – another very useful opportunity ahead of the unpredictable weather often encountered at the opening races.
What’s next
The team remains in Barcelona for a second session next week (Feb 28-Mar 3). Driving duties will be split Sergio-Jenson-Sergio-Jenson, and the car will run in Melbourne-spec for the first time.
