BMW gets the most out of wet conditions
With rain for the entire day the amount of running was restricted. The BMW Sauber F1 Team went out in the afternoon and Nick was able to check the balance of the car in the wet conditions. He also did some systems checking.
Nick Heidfeld: Chassis / engine: BMW Sauber F1.07-05 / BMW P86/7 V8 Test kilometres today: 78 km (17 laps) Fastest lap: 1:32.175 min
What comes next: Robert Kubica will take over the driving duties for the next two days – the team has decided to extend their test for an extra day due to the small amount of running achieved today. Weather permitting, Robert will do race preparation work for next week, and also try some new parts on the car.
