Difficult day for McLaren


Lewis Hamilton completed more than 500km today as the team continued to refine MP4-24 ahead of the Australian Grand Prix. The programme was a continuation of the work started yesterday, namely the evaluation of a series of small aerodynamic modifications to the car’s bodywork. The test was hampered by a strong gusty wind that limited accurate assessment of the new parts. Heikki Kovalainen joins the test for Wednesday and Thursday in order to continue the programme.
