Ferrari: Closing of testing in the rain at Montmelò
di StaffMarch 12, 2011
The winter tests for Scuderia Ferrari Marlboro ended under heavy rain. The weather conditions at the Circuit de Catalunya were terrible from the early hours of the morning and remained so into the early afternoon, so much so that the team decided to close the activities about two hours before the checkered flag.
Up to that point, only five incomplete laps had been completed by Fernando Alonso, useful only to do some starting tests in the wet and to check the functionality of the single-seater in such extreme conditions.
Circuit: Circuit de Catalunya – 4,655 km
Driver: Fernando Alonso
Car: Ferrari 150° Italia
Weather: air temperature 12/13°C, asphalt temperature 12/13°C. Heavy rain all day.
