Programme:
Both drivers had a mixed programme today, consisting of tyre and aero testing. They tried out several new parts that delivered some very promising results. In the afternoon the focus was mainly on tyre testing in view of the German Grand Prix at Hockenheim. The drivers evaluated different compounds and casings. Overall the three days were very productive with the new parts revealing the results the team hoped for.
What comes next:
Test in Jerez from July 19th to 21st.
