"It was a very good day for us. We worked on the mechanical set-up and balance of the car. We also tested some launch control settings. This circuit is very efficient for testing due to its combination of both fast and slow corners. Additionally the bumpy nature of the track puts the car under considerable stress which gives us a useful basis to gain more information about the car set-up."
