Marussia to run upgrade despite Friday woes

Marussia will press ahead with running its latest upgrade despite admitting they failed to collect any significant data during Friday practice.

The first two practice sessions were both hit by rain, leaving teams in the dark as to whether or not their latest upgrades are working efficiently – resulting in many abandoning them until they can test them further in Monza.

However Marussia will run its upgrade in the belief they have nothing to lose.

“We will definitely run it all tomorrow now. There’s no point in not doing so,” team principal John Booth told Autosport.

“It was a shame we couldn’t find out more about them today, and see whether the aero data from the track correlates with what we expect from the upgrade, but hopefully we can find out more in P3.”

This is the teams second major upgrade which has been developed at McLaren’s Woking wind-tunnel.
