Jenson Button joined the Honda team at the Spa-Francorchamps circuit yesterday for the second day of the test. Overnight rain meant that the track was still wet at the start of the morning session allowing Jenson to complete a short evaluation on the Bridgestone wet tyres.

By mid morning, the track had dried out sufficiently to switch to dry tyres and Jenson worked through an aero programme alongside chassis set-up work.

The afternoon session brought the infamous Spa weather conditions as the rain came down again limiting the amount of dry running that could be achieved. Jenson completed a total of 53 laps yesterday.

Rubens Barrichello will join the team for the final day of the test.
