Massa and Speed conclude Mugello test

NEWS STORY
26/07/2007

Ferrari and Toro Rosso concluded their three-day test at Mugello today.

With Luca Badoer on duty for Ferrari on Tuesday and Wednesday, the Maranello outfit was represented by Felipe Massa today, the final day of testing before the August break.

The Brazilian worked on a programme of new mechanical and aerodynamic component development, aimed at forthcoming races. He completed 68 laps on the way to posting the best time of the week.

Toro Rosso had to end its programme early as Scott Speed was suffering with severe lower back pain, which had in fact started yesterday. However, by jumping out of the cockpit after each run and much application of ice packs, the American driver still managed to complete 74 laps.

"The programme was pretty much the same as for the past two days," said Chief Engineer Laurent Mekies. "We worked on validating some new aero components for the Hungarian Grand Prix, by doing some runs in maximum downforce configuration, as well as assessing various brake materials. High speed Mugello might not be the ideal venue to simulate slow speed Hungaroring, but at least the temperatures were similar to those we might experience next weekend."
