Driver: Rubens Barrichello
Car: F2005
Circuit: Fiorano
The first part of the Scuderia Ferrari Marlboro team's testing schedule
involved Rubens Barrichello in an F2005 at the Fiorano Circuit. The
Brazilian driver worked on Bridgestone tyre development, which is very
important for the team because it appears that the tyres are the weakest
part of the team. Barrichello completed 180 laps, with a fastest time of
0'57.904.
Barrichello will continue testing
tomorrow at the Mugello circuit, alongside Ferrari third driver, Luca
Badoer.
Drivers: Michael Schumacher and Luca
Badoer
Cars: F2005 and F2004 M
Circuit: Autodromo del Mugello
The second part of the Italian team's testing was with Michael
Schumacher and Luca Badoer at the Mugello Circuit. Like Barrichello, the
two drivers focused on the all important Bridgestone tyre development program.
During his 75 laps, Badoer's best time in the F2004 M was a 1'23.447
while Schumacher logged 127 laps in the F2005 with a fastest time of
1'21.534.
Tomorrow, Badoer will continue work at the Mugello circuit while
Schumacher will swap places with Barrichello and continue tyre
development at Fiorano.
