Jean Alesi:
"Today we have done our usual Friday's setup work. The main problem I have encountered is a strong understeering. We don't know the cause but we will set to work on it and find a solution by tomorrow."

Luciano Burti:
"As today was my real first day in the car, I focused on getting familiar with it. I still have to get used at not having the power-assisted steering which makes it quite difficult for me in the fast corners. We managed to do some setup work and, although this afternoon's session didn't improve my position, we know in which direction we have to work for tomorrow's qualifying."

Alain Prost:
"For Luciano's first day of testing, we had many things to adjust, particularly with his driving position and everything went fine. However, both cars are experiencing a significant understeering that we must eliminate. The Barcelona track changes a lot during the week-end, and we work with serenity, knowing that we still have a real margin of improvement on our cars' setup until Sunday."
