Hard to evaluate our performance - Barrichello
With the track under constant rain past the morning runs, the Williams team didn't allow the weather to slow them down and amassed 120 laps in a single day, which was rare today since most teams decided to cut back their running. Barrichello managed a best time of 1:23.217.
Sam Michael, Technical Director: "We went straight into a race run on slick tyres in the morning as we knew we would only have a short window before the rain came. After that, it was a wet programme for the rest of the day. We spent the session working on control strategies, systems checks, race starts and a couple of small set-up changes. We had no mechanical problems."
Rubens Barrichello: "We basically only had a few laps in the dry this morning but then the rest of our running was done in the wet, so it was hard to find where the limit was and evaluate our performance. I’m looking forward to getting back in the car tomorrow and getting some more mileage in."
