HulkenbergNico Hulkenberg would finish the day with the fastest time on the second day of this week's final pre-season test at Barcelona on Friday.

Nico would set his time early in the afternoon during some qualifying simulation work. Nico had spent the morning conducting shorter runs prior to working on a race simulation. Nico would complete this without any problems. In the afternoon Nico would complete a series of qualifying simulations. His best time of 1m:20.614s was set on the second flying lap of a stint.

Nico would complete 99 laps during the day. He would also practise some pitstops in order for Nico to familiarise himself with the process of stopping in the box. Rubens Barrichello will takes over running for the final two days.

Sam Michael:
"Nico finished his last day of winter testing today with a good run of laps. Our programme included the evaluation of a new sidepod, starts practice and some additional work on the set-up of the FW32. We're making progress, but there’s still plenty to do."

Nico Hülkenberg:
"We’ve had a good test here. P1 today is nice but means nothing, to be honest. We’re not in Bahrain yet! It’s positive for the team, and for me, to know what the car can do though. We did a lot of set-up work today and have found some interesting things so I feel ready and confident to go to Bahrain now."
