7 April: Team SAUBER PETRONAS continued its three-day test at the Circuit de Catalunya today.
Felipe Massa took over from Jacques Villeneuve and covered 83 laps in chassis C24-05 with a best time of 1:16.942s. He will complete
the test tomorrow.
Giampaolo Dall'Ara (Race Engineer): "In the morning we first adapted the car's set-up to Felipe's driving style. We
then mainly concentrated on evaluating mechanical development parts as well as new aerodynamic components. At the end of the test
day we did a long-run with decent pace as part of our race preparation. "Overall, we could feel an improvement today, but
still need more understanding to meet our goals."
