"Originally we had planned for Felipe to test Michelin tyres for the Imola race in April, and Jacques was supposed to run a race simulation," said Jacky Eeckelaert, the team's Chief Race Engineer. "However, due to the bad weather conditions and in consequence the cold track surface the tyres didn’t reach the necessary operation temperature. Under these circumstances testing had been too dangerous and moreover pointless. We will see tomorrow morning if the weather and track conditions will allow us to complete our test."
"Nonetheless we are happy that we didn’t have this situation yesterday already, but that we were able to run a lot of laps to gather valuable data."
