Barcelona - Test 4 -Day 3 - Lotus

27 February 2010 @ 17:40 GMT - Charles Cooper The morning sunshine gave way to grey conditions and light rain in Barcelona as the Lotus Racing T127 completed a successful third day of testing. By lunchtime Jarno Trulli had already completed 60 laps, and went on consistently throughout the day to finish on a total of 102 laps. The team completed a full race distance and were satisfied with the timings and quality of the day's activity. Mike Gascoyne, Chief Technical Officer, commented "Another productive day with Jarno; over a hundred laps completed with no real mechanical issues and Jarno was able to complete the full race distance in the mix of wet and dry weather. "We successfully completed our whole programme with the changeable conditions and have had two very useful days with Jarno in the car, with a very clear set up direction from him. Now we're looking forward to further refining the balance of the car with Heikki tomorrow." Heikki takes the hot seat for the final day's testing before the season starts in earnest in Bahrain.
