The only disappointment of the day was when Ralf Schumacher had to leave the circuit complaining of stomach pains. This would leave just Pizzonia and Gene to carry out the days testing. Ralf was taken to Salzburg Hospital for a check-up. He spoke of the situation regarding him leaving the circuit. He said: "The car felt great yesterday, as demonstrated by Juan Pablo's lap record, and I thoroughly enjoyed driving it. Today, set-up and tyre evaluations were on my schedule but, due to these abdominal pains, I could not take part.”

Pizzonia, driving last year's Williams FW25, would set the fastest time of the day, with a time of 1m:09.165 completing sixty three laps. Antonio would spend the day working on setups. He would be three tenths quicker than Ferrari's Michael Schumacher who was second.

Marc would complete a race simulation, covering eighty seven laps, with a best time of 1m:10.440. The team will continue their testing at Barcelona commencing next Monday.
