Barrichello Joins Test Team for Final Day
Barrichello Joins Test Team for Final Day
Charlotte, NC - March 23, 2006 -- The final day of the test this week saw Rubens Barrichello joining the team in Vallelunga.
Once the circuit had dried out from overnight rain, Rubens completed some early runs in chassis RA106-05 to acclimatise himself to the circuit and the track conditions. A rain shower brought the morning session to an early close, with Rubens completing 31 laps.
Anthony Davidson ran through chassis set-up work in RA106-02, completing 50 laps in the short morning session.
The weather conditions continued to deteriorate rapidly with thunderstorms followed by heavy rain preventing any further running until the last hour of the day. Both Rubens and Anthony were then able to go out on extreme wet tyres to complete a few runs before the circuit closed.
Rubens completed a total of 46 laps today, with Anthony running for 82 laps.
1 A. Davidson 01:15.937
2 R. Barrichello 01:17.092
