Focus on long runs for McLaren

Heikki Kovalainen joined Lewis Hamilton in Jerez as the test plan switched to a focus on longer runs. The day was affected by windy conditions, which made the track conditions far from ideal. Lewis finished shortly after 15:00, as the wind had picked up during the course of the afternoon. The team chose to focus on preparing his car for tomorrow’s running. Heikki continued to the end of the session, with his programme switching to shorter runs.
