Bahrain - Massa once again on Sakhir track
Circuit: Bahrain International Circuit - 5.412 km
Driver: Felipe Massa
Car: Ferrari F60
Weather: air temperature 20/22 C, track temperature 21/29 C. Sunny, with
hazy skies and windy.
Penultimate day of testing for Scuderia Ferrari Marlboro at the Sakhir circuit in Bahrain.
Today, Felipe Massa was back at the wheel of the Ferrari F60. The Brazilian driver's programme consisted of evaluating various set-up options in the morning and a race simulation in the afternoon. Proceedings were delayed by a gearbox problem early in the day and an electrical one towards the end, the latter resulting in the car stopping out on track. Nevertheless, the Grand Prix simulation was completed successfully.
The day in figures is as follows: 105 laps completed by Felipe, the quickest in a time of 1.32.917.
Testing at this circuit comes to an end tomorrow, when Felipe will once again be on track.
