Vettel ends up in gravel trap

F1 Test, Barcelona, Circuit de Catalunya

It was Sebastian Vettel's first of two days at the wheel today and his programme focussed on two areas: set-up work with RB5 aimed at the first few races of the season and general development of the car, evaluating some new components.

This produced some positive results, with the only glitch of the day coming right at the very end of the session, when Seb was a bit optimistic going into Turn 4 and brought the car to an undamaged halt in the gravel trap. He continues driving tomorrow for the final day of the test.
