The opening, weather-impacted pre-season test draws to a conclusion today (Thursday) at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya.
Unseasonably cold conditions restricted running on Monday and Tuesday, while snow and rain on Wednesday led to a near washout, with only 17 laps completed by five drivers.
As a result, teams head into the final day of the opening test on the back foot; fortunately the weather is set to improve, with temperatures returning to normal, and dry conditions expected.
Running is set to take place from 09:00 to 18:00, with the one-hour lunch break cancelled.
