The teams have firmed up their plans for the final pre-season test before the season kicks-off later this month in Australia.
The Barcelona test will consist of five days, though the teams can only run on four. The majority will begin on Tuesday, although Ferrari, Mercedes, and Williams have opted to start a day later on Wednesday, therefore finishing on Saturday, rather than Friday.
McLaren are the only team which will start on the 8th and finish on the 12th, as the Woking-based squad has chosen to miss Thursday.
Timo Glock will be unavailable after having is appendix removed earlier last week.
