The last day of the first week of pre-season testing turned out to be the most productive day yet for Mercedes-AMG Petronas Motorsport. The team managed to drive the #f1w09eqpower for a total of 600 kilometres, with both drivers running a decent amount of laps. After tricky weather conditions had compromised yesterday’s programme, the team got a lot of work done today and is now looking forward to more productive testing days next week.
- Valtteri ran through some system check as the track dried in the morning, then moved onto dry tyres through a race stint to understand the cross-over
- Lewis got started on a dry program to understand the car and the tyres, fitting in work for car systems around the program
- Today’s programme focussed on catching up on the shortage of dry running to date
- Mercedes-Benz Power Units today completed a total of 1,373 km
