Programme: This was the final day of the three day test and, as the BMW Sauber F1 Team had almost completed its entire programme during the first two days, was used to validate the data gathered on Wednesday and Thursday.

Apart from this, Robert Kubica did some more work on the gearbox and both cars completed some long runs. The distance covered by both cars during the three test days is a total of 2,806 kilometres.

What comes next: Today was not only the final day of the Jerez test, but the final day of testing for 2006. The test team members will now have some well earned holidays, and the next time the team is in 'action' will be at the launch of the 2007 car at Valencia on the 16th January. A very happy Christmas and prosperous New Year to everyone from the BMW Sauber F1 Team.
