Christijan Albers was in action for Midland F1 at Silverstone today, completing 124 laps of the 1.96 mile South Circuit.
"We ran an updated aero package for the M16 today in preparation for Imola," said Dominic Harlow, the Russian team's chief race and test engineer. "The data collected correlates well with our predictions for the modifications.
"In addition, Christijan carried out a tyre test programme for the forthcoming events and we feel we have a good handle on some of the latest developments from Bridgestone that we tried for the first time. We also performed some background work involving brake system modifications and control systems tests. "
Giorgio Mondini will take over the car tomorrow for the continuation of the test.
