Ferrari has opted to abort its planned test programme at Mugello this week, and instead focus everything in Barcelona.
Based on a weather forecast that predicts worsening conditions for the Apennines and Tuscan- Emilio region, the Italian team has chosen to change its development test programme, therefore instead of continuing at Mugello, testing of the 248 F1 will resume on Thursday (26) at Barcelona, with Michael Schumacher at the wheel.
Today, while Marc Gene drove a V8 powered F2004 at Barcelona, Schumacher completed 44 laps of the Mugello track, setting a best time of 1:21.904.
