Barcelona Test 20-22 March / Day 3

Panasonic Toyota Racing driver Mika Salo concluded the team's 3-day test in Barcelona today. Test driver Ryan Briscoe began the test on Wednesday with Mika Salo ending the session on Thursday and Friday. Allan McNish did not test this week, but instead will carry out the next test session in Valencia after the Brazilian Grand Prix.

Mika Salo

"We were planning some tyres test today but again our job has been interrupted by some problems with the hydraulics. In any case we are learning a lot about the car and I am happy with the 2 days I spent in Barcelona. Tuesday I will fly to Brazil where I think we can expect a relatively good result because Interlagos will suit the TF102 very well. It's a horsepower circuit, and our engine is good, and you don't have to run maximum downforce."

Driver: Mika Salo
Car: TF102
Best lap time: 1m20.090s
Total number of laps completed: 55

Weather conditions: Dry and sunny all day.
Air temperature: min 14, max 24
Track conditions: Dry throughout the day.
Asphalt temperature: min 17, max 32
