The work for the day included the testing of tyres, different suspension parts and the aerodynamics. The test has been very positive and so the team is happy with the work done for the British Grand Prix. The drivers, Nick Heidfeld, who drove on day one, and Timo Glock, who drove on days two and three, covered a total of 1,048 kilometres.
What comes next:
The next test will be at the Spa-Francorchamps circuit in Belgium on the 10th, 11th, and 12th July where Robert Kubica and Nick Heidfeld are expected to share the driving duties.
