Third and final day of testing this week for Scuderia Ferrari Marlboro at the Jerez circuit. Once again today, Luciano Burti was driving a F2001, in order to continue with a development programme for Bridgestone tyres, which started on Tuesday. Burti completed a total of 82 laps, with a best time of 1’22”150. Also on track today was Anthony Davidson, at the wheel of a BAR.

“This has been a very useful session,” said Burti at the end of the day. “We were able to test the tyres on a track with mixed characteristics in high temperatures, working towards the next few races and the arrival of the summer months. It’s just a shame about the wind today as it was very irritating.”

This was the last day of the Scuderia’s test at the Spanish track.
