Ferrari Barcelona test notes 2007-05-03

Fourth and final day of testing this week for Scuderia Ferrari Marlboro, working once again today at the Catalunya Circuit, near Barcelona. As happened on Tuesday, rain once again made an appearance at the Montmelo circuit, complicating matters for those teams that stayed on for this additional day's testing.

Having been held up with a technical problem on his car in the morning, Felipe Massa was unable to get in much dry running, completing just under thirty laps, concentrating mainly on finding the best set-up for the F2007. In the afternoon, Felipe ran in the wet to work on the balance of the car under these track conditions. In total, 38 laps were completed, the quickest in a time of 1.21.483.

With this session over, Scuderia Ferrari Marlboro will be back on track on the 8th May at Fiorano, where Luca Badoer will carry out the shakedown of the cars that will be used in the Spanish Grand Prix, scheduled for Sunday 13th May at the Catalunya circuit.
