On a fairly cold day in Barcelona Michael Schumacher again posted the fastest testing time on day 2 of the test. His fastest time was around three seconds faster than that of the fastest time set by Force India, who slotted into the final 3 places on the timesheets. Christian Klien fronted the team's times, with a 1m24.446. This time was just under a tenth faster than team regular Adrian Sutil.


Klien, who has not tested a car since August when he tested for Spyker said it "took some time to get used to it [testing] again, particularly without any of the driver aids".

Also out in action for Force was Tonio Liuzzi who took over from Klien after lunch. The flamboyant Italian was the slowest man on track with a fastest lap of 1m24.555. Liuzzi blamed this on being used to the Red Bull/Toro Rosso cars, "I had some problems getting comfortable in the cockpit, which is normal after years at another team and lost maybe a couple of tenths".

Testing concludes on Thursday, with Liuzzi and Klien testing a car each.
