Mechanical problem for Vettel
Scuderia Toro Rosso is testing one car at the Circuit de Catalunya in Barcelona this week, as the second race chassis is being prepared at the Faenza factory ahead of the first race of the season in Melbourne.
"The morning was wet, so we only made a single run on dry tyres a few minutes before the lunch break. We did manage to do some long runs on both extreme wet and standard wet tyres however, so it was still a productive morning.
"This afternoon we aimed to complete a race simulation, but unfortunately we had to stop the car due to a mechanical problem".
Toro Rosso will continue testing tomorrow.
