All three drivers had a day at the wheel, during this session at the Circuit de Catalunya. Scott was the only one to suffer from the elements, as it rained on Wednesday morning. "This was a good test with everyone, drivers and team personnel putting in a solid performance," commented Chief Engineer, Laurent Mekies. "We had several new aero parts to evaluate and the workload was split between the three drivers. Now we have plenty of data to study back in the factory and we will then try and get the parts that worked well onto the cars as soon as possible, although the next race at Silverstone might be a bit too early."
