Barcelona Testing 1 Live – Day 1
MotorsInside is present in Barcelona for the second session of private testing and, as in Jerez, we offer you live coverage of these four days of testing.
The Formula One Circus is present this week in Barcelona, Spain, for the continuation of the winter testing of the season /f1/actualite/14963-essais-jerez-le-bilan-des-quatre-journees.html. All the teams will run with their single-seaters from /f1/actualite/14963-essais-jerez-le-bilan-des-quatre-journees.html, including Williams, which will have just presented its FW35 to the world after conducting tests in Jerez with its predecessor, the FW34.
Motors Inside is present in the paddock at the Circuit de Catalunya for these tests, and just like in Jerez, we offer you a live text to experience this first day of testing. Feel free to participate in this live by asking your questions throughout the day.
On the agenda today, we have the triple reigning champion, Sebastian Vettel for Red Bull, as well as Sergio Pérez for McLaren, Kimi Räikkönen driving the Lotus, Nico Rosberg and his Mercedes, Esteban Gutierrez with Sauber, Paul di Resta at the helm of the Force India, Charles Pic for Caterham, and Max Chilton in the seat of the Marussia. Pastor Maldonado will have the honor of debuting the new Williams while Fernando Alonso will make his first laps, having not participated in the Jerez testing.
As a reminder, the Jerez tests resulted in a best overall time by Felipe Massa at the wheel of the Ferrari F138. You can find the report of these tests carried out by Motors Inside.
