It was another cold and sunny day in
Barcelona for the second day of the Honda Racing F1 Team's first winter test.
Anthony Davidson continued his work in the 2006
Concept car during the morning session, completing further shakedown running, along with a short aero evaluation. A trouble-free
session saw him complete 47 laps.

suspension evaluation. Jenson completed 58 laps in the morning session.
